Title: First time with my new name
Post by: MeTony on February 26, 2018, 12:09:32 AM
I am going to meet my sister's friend today. It is the first time I meet someone new and will say hello being myself. I have decided for a second name. Pierre. But maybe that will be my first name. I've been thinking about Pierre for a long time and I don't have to change my signature if I pick that name. Huge advantage.

I will greet my sister's friend with the name Pierre today. He knows I'm transgender.

First time. Exciting. :D

Ooh-la-la!  The name Pierre, it is, 'ow you say? magnifique!   Very classy choice.

Good luck meeting your sister's friend.  :)

Thank you! I'm happy with the choise.

My sister asked if I'm nervous. Strange thing is...I'm not nervous. 2 hours left.

Yes. It was nice to say my name. My sister has started to use my name. She said it was a perfect match.  :D

Way to go Pierre. It's rather french or french Canadian isn't it? Suave and debonair even.

Hugs,

The coolest thing happened today. My sister's friend told my sister that "Pierre would be a nice name to him."

Guess I made the right choise. :D
