I've taken an odd route to the name that I *want* to have, if I ever get around to changing my name. At birth I was given the name George, named after my father. When I was adopted at the age of six, I was basically given a choice by my adoptive parents, Tommy or George. I went along with my mother's thinking, that Tommy sounded better (great logic, huh? lol). Growing up I was called "Tommy". Later on, in my teen years I became known as Thomas. After graduating high school and a couple of years later, I started liking the sound of 'Tom', so that's what I started naming myself. Getting pretty interesting, huh?
When I was introduced to crossdressing, for whatever reason Samantha was the name I was interested in. Given that I love snow and ice, I went by Samantha Winters when crossdressed. Fastforward about 15 years, and here I am creating my username here on Susans. I chose Samantha. I'm not done, though.
About a month ago, I came to the realization that Samantha is just too girly of a name for me. I'm really a tomboy kind of girl at heart. I went searching on the web, and because I used to play Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) a lot as a kid, I've always been interested in mythology. I started searching for mythological characters that has personalities that matched mine. Since I am such an aggressive, resentful bastard at times (there are a few people in my life that I would have loved to replace with six feet of soil), I chose Aeron, the God/dess (not clear on that one, but don't care too much) of Battle & Slaughter. In fact, I like the name Aeron so much that I am in the process of legally changing my name to that.
