My mom had a thing with the name Laurence for a girl, as both my brother and I should have been one if assigned female at birth. For many reasons, I don't really like the name, but would maybe use it as a middle name in due time. There's many name I liked and played with in the past, but I wanted too to keep my initials, so I listed names beginning with a S. I ended by feminizing my male name, thinking that it would be easier for family and friends (if I keep some), to name me correctly first times. (Just adding the final "ie" to the pronunciation of my male name, even with a short delay, to correct a mistake).
