Hello my dears :3
So rn I’m going by Jamie and there’s a lot I really like about this name. Its meaning works well (she, who supplants), it’s the name of my favorite skater when I was a kid, it does have a nice ring to it.
But when I chose it to play with, I didn’t know where my journey would lead to. Now that I do I’m just not sure I like the ambiguity.
That being said, I wonder, how did you all pick your new names? Does it have a special meaning to you? Anything in particular that made you go like “Yes, that’s it, that’s me!”?
€: Thanks for sharing everyone (and keep going :3)! Definitely some inspiration in there.
I went for a summer job to The Netherlands. One of the coworkers’ name was Saskia and I thought it sounded cute. Apparently this name is quite popular there, while almost unheard of in Poland. If anyone knows the name here, they either know it from The Witcher or because of Rembrandt’s wife. I know it may sound weird that I picked a name after coworker, but I did not have any feelings for her and I don’t even remember what she looks like. It’s just the way I learned about that name and it stuck
That’s my mothers name! Although she usually abbreviates to Sas.
Saskia Hamilton
