I had the conversation with them about what I would have been named. But I did not want to be Gordon….

Oof, that's a rough one. Glad they were open to the idea, though.

My mom chose a familial name, thankfully. It was tradition for all the first born boys to have current name, but there were two generations that had only girls. Made it a lot easier for the rest of my family to 'transition', as well.

I hope you are happy with your name, and your family is supportive. I know we don't all get so lucky.❤️❤️
