    Had a classmate in sixth grade named Casey. Relished that name ever since.


    The Ellen Greene original!* (Another childhood crush.) :grin:


    *Ok, ok, I know the "real" original was Roger Corman, but he was no Ellen Greene, so... :wink:

    I originally was Casey Adam, now I'm Julie Noelle. I was on the unique spot where I really considered not changing my name, other than my middle. I wanted a clean break so I did change it, but Casey is an awesome name.

    I'm originally Rileigh Elizabeth,

    Thinking about Rileigh Eric or Riley Eric. Not sure if my current spelling is gender neutral enough for me, but I'm lucky to have a name that sounds gn.

    I'm like all your names, ya'll have skills in making stuff sound good.

    Given name is Patrick Robert and while I don't HATE it, it doesn't really fit. I've started introducing myself as Pat though just because it's a bit more androgynous and fits a smidge better.

    Right now though when I go through transitioning I'm thinking about going with the name "Sofiya." I love, Love, LOVE weird names and even weird spelling of names. I like the feel of Sofiya though :slight_smile:

    My parents always told my sisters and I that any son of theirs would be named Andrew Zachariah. Even after three girls, they stuck by that name, and I have fallen utterly in love with it. My given first and middle names are Ashley Renne.

    Thanks for the input. I have a couple years to decide, so I bet I'll be more sure by then.

    Since my given name is Sara I was thinking of changing it to Samuel, but I don't really want to be named that :eusa_doh:
    I'd like to be called Martin. I know it's not really a special name, but I like it and in the end that's what matters.

    Well my birth name is Kaley Gayle ****
    Changing it to Dylan Gale **** Keeping the Gayle/Gale because it's my grandma's name and my mom's middle. Although it seems no matter what I pick it'll get misspelled, because there are approx. 202029309840934 ways to spell Kaley and everyone thinks I spell Dylan as Dillon but whatever.

    I wouldn't change my first name(because it is a uni sexual name) however I would change my middle name to something less feminine like Noel.)0

    I thought I wanted Danica, but lately I've been thinking of using Kimberly as well. So, it'll be Danica/Kimberly Colleen Magna [Surname] on my end. I know that second middle name is a bit weird, but I want it for personal reasons XD

    I'm starting to go by what is my current middle name, Celest. I can't decide on a middle name though, since it is my current middle name. Any suggestions?
