Just a silly little question I guess :). I just wonder if people take on there suppose to be birth name or feel more comfotable with another. Still, i am curious what everyone name would have been. A short story, if I was born correctly my name would have been.... get ready for it... ASHLEY! in fact my male birth name came from Ashley. For whatever reason, i recall asking my parent when i was young what my girl name would have been and they said Ashley. If i recall correctly they had a feeling they were going to get a baby girl anyways but they also looked for a male name. Austin was very popular in 1993/94 and my mom thought it was too common so she decided if i was born male my name would have been Ashton instead. How about all you?

Probably Victor. My father was so into that name he wanted the feminine version of it too if I turned out the flip side. It would have been Victor or Victoria if he'd got his way entirely. My mother hated the shortened nicknames for the feminine, though, so they went with something else.

It would either be the feminine version of my male name (Frances) or Rose. Rose is a family name.

Amelia. I might actually use that as a middle name after the name change. :)

It would have been sarah-elizibeth. Kind of glad it didn't go that way, every Sarah I've ever met was self-centered.

I have no idea, and no way of finding out now.  I chose my new name because it sounds a bit like my AMAB name and keeps my initials the same.

No way of knowing what my bio mom would've named me, never asked my mom. What I think should be my female name and what my adopted mom and bio mom thought, are 3 totally different things. Never asked them, when I knew them.

Being truthful. I just go with my own choosing, since what I chose. Actually its Lucia, so, pretty sure what bio mom and adopted mom would've chosen something else.

I'm old school, born before ultrasound so no one knew ahead of time. It was customary for a girl name and a boy name to be ready. I would have been Maureen, which went to my sister the next year. We're Irish!  :laugh:

Hugs, Devlyn

I Am Jess

I am from the old days too.  My mother was positive she was having a girl (she was right) and I was going to be named Monica Joleane.

I would have been Michael John.  I thought about adopting that name, but I just know too many Mikes.  I'd end up with a nickname, which would probably be some variation on "Mike who used to be a girl."  No thanks.  I'll go with something less common.

Nikolas, I'm not sure about my middle name. My dad always wanted a son he could call Nick, so I decided to make it my new middle name. :)
