For me Its quite simple. My brain decided it. Literally. The days I found out I’m trans, my brain would do this weird thing, where I could think about completely different stuff and suddenly my now chosen name would “fly” into my mental Field of View, like an asteroid in star wars or so. I told that name a close friend and 4 weeks later when we went to the club together I told him, that I will stick with it, because I didnt had a better idea (and it was the only name I really felt comfortable with).
I just kept asking people if I may have their names and they kept giving them to me

I used it since I was 13 on IRC ““catfishing””, well it was not catfishing actually, it was me expressing how I wanted to live, but I didn’t realised at that time. Then, I came out at 27 and remembered those days and rescued the name.
I was thinking about Satan on my walk and figured that “Lucy” is short for “Lucifer”, and then was like “Lucy actually sounds pretty nice…”
I returned home and told about it with my friend (also trans) and she was like “wow so cool!!!” so I went with it. That’s it :3
And I just thought of random names until I found one I liked. lol
I dont get it
It’s a character from Attack on Titan. Iirc the character is called Sasha and she gets shouted at for eating a potato during a military drill. Her response is to offer the drill sergeant part of the potato. (Been a while since I watched AoT)
Thanks
Yeah that’s it lol, I like feeding people.
It’s not really the reason, but she was at least part of what drew me to it, and it’s really funny tbh
I kept my name. It’s unisex, and a search of it on LinkedIn actually shows like a 70-30 split of female to male respectively. I’m comfortable with it and used to it and, living in the US rn, I don’t want to deal with all the name change issues.
Ayy, samesies. I love my name, and like you said, it’s a very common female name. There’s also a certain sense of power that comes from being un-deadnameable.
My government name is 99% masc, but I only hear it at work and it isn’t worth the hassle of changing it. All my mates and friends just call me “Cat”.
swapnote girl is adorable and always stuck with me
I got it from a fantasy name generator, from its demon category.
That’s probably one of the most metal things imaginable.
I’m not sure I qualify for this (relevant username) but I do have two names I think about using if I ever crack my shell. One is just a name I always liked and one is part of an online pseudonym I used a long time (and that I still use sometimes) that has a totally different backstory, can be used kinda androgynously but is mostly used by women with one noticeable exception.
And no one is stopping anyone from choosing more than one name.
Codsworth from fo4 could say certain prerecorded pc names. Thus, I found out i preferred the name Assface
I downloaded mine from a silly pink hedgie :3
You wouldn’t download a name
I was chatting about names with my wife and she suggested it. Tried it out, it fit, and now I’m legally stuck with it :3
I asked chatgpt
I stole mine from a Greek goddess. It is only part of her name though. This goddess also was known by Kori, so it actually seems like a perfect choice. (My chosen name isn’t currently in my display name.)
No.
:(

That doesn’t have to be something you need to be sad about Smorty! Look at it this way, you’ve got a world of opportunity ahead of you for what you can pick! It’s such an exciting and fun time figuring out what name suits you best, what feels most comfy! That’s !!! super exciting !!!
