my wife and i picked out Todd Landon Vitale when i started transitioning last july. i stopped transitioning in sept, due to some disagreements on my transitioning with my wife... and i've been wanting to try and start transitioning with the help of therapy, and possibly couples counseling. but also, i've been having thoughts on changing my male name that i have picked out. i like todd landon, but i've been thinking of something more close to my birth name to make it easier on everyone. i go by Jes right now, so i was thinking something like Jason. then people could still call me jes and not be confused. it makes sense in my head, but idk, what do you guys think? is there any other names that could be Jes for short and not sound weird? and no, definetly not Jesse... cuz my name now is Jessica, and ive despised being called jesse my whole life. lol. hence going by jes... (still passes for being a possible male name.) i'm not attempting to transition or pass at the moment, but i still pass very well 80% of the time. even with these dreadful D's that are attached to my frontside.

Off the top of my head, you could just go by "Jay" - which is largely male and could be traced back to just the beginning letter of your current name.  I will try and think of more in the mean time!  I'll post if I think of something new.  :)

What's wrong with just "Jes" if you like it?  If you don't like it, maybe make a list of names that you do like and play around with those for a while?
