Title: Update and a question
Post by: Madeline on December 13, 2018, 04:29:32 PM
Hello! I don't know if anyone really cares but here's an update on me!

I've been feeling a lot more feminine the past few days and have even started referring to myself with my female name (in my head not out loud). I'm really eager to cross dress more preferably with clothes more my age and for an extended period of time but I can't do it when my siblings are here and I currently find it really difficult to work up the guts to talk to my parents. We haven't spoken about me being a girl in months. For all I know they could think that it was a phase and I've moved on! That's how little I've said to them. On the plus hand I recently joined childline and have been talking to the councilers on there and they have been helping me build up the courage. I plan to talk to them as soon as I have an opportune moment so wish me luck. I'm crossing my fingers that I won't wimp out.

Now I also had a question to ask. I haven't been using the name Maria for myself for sometime. On childline a councillor nicknamed me Eve which I love. The problem with this is that my cousin is called Evie but I really love the name! As a result I'm looking for another name because I can't stay attached to Eve. Please give any suggestions but it should be noted that I was born in 2003 and I'm 15. Thanks so much;

Maria/Eve/??????, Out!

What about Evette or Yvette. Very pretty - not too exotic.

Kind regards, Kirsten

Hey Maria/Eve

When I was trying to decide on a name I did look at popular names around my year of birth but to be perfectly honest it came down to what I liked which also happened to be the same as a very old friend...so I rang her and asked her if she cared that we would share a name and she was perfectly ok  with that.

I would encourage you to talk to your Mum and Dad about how you are feeling...You may find that they are fine with you taking  a bit of time to get things they way you want before you move forward.

Take care

Liz
