    I've recently started identifying as transgender since I feel like that descriptor fits my gender the best.
    I want to choose a name for me to be called once I come out and start transitioning, but I have absolutely no idea whatsoever what my name should be.
    I'm not sure what kind of information I should give while asking for name help, but I guess I might want a name somewhat similar to my birth name, which is Emily. I mean, if I have something similar to that, then it'll be easier for me and other people to get used to me being called that.
    I guess I've always kind of liked the name Evan, but I'm not sure if I want it to be my name. This is my one chance to choose a name that defines who I am! Or maybe I'm making a big deal about it. Either way, I just need help choosing a name.
    Thanks in advance for any advice :slight_smile:

    I also kind of like Elliot, thanks for the suggestion. I think I'll make a list of names to choose from later. :slight_smile:
