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).

    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 !!!

        Maria is really pretty!! I think Norah can similarly be considered religious but I like that it means honour :3

          I wat just going to suggest that name, too :D its a really pretty name. It still sounds good in other languages, too (maryam in arabic, for example). Top 10 names imo
