I feel i need to clarify things here, when i joined the forum i declared my name as jenna, but really it was not meant to be, it seems like it was somewhat difficult figuring out the perfect name, but with help from an amazing friend, and some stunning coincidences of fate and past historyy i have realized that my name has truly been destined for me to be Lily      and i love it.      i just wanted to clarify things for everybody, i love this site you are all so helpful to me it makes me wanna cry im so happy to have found you all! The impact you have made in my life and will continue to make is astounding

Cute name glad to hear you are so happy ^_^

I love it too Lily. It's a beautiful name.  I'm glad you found the perfect name.

The other day when I was in a store I heard a woman call out the name Julie.  I immediately turned to see what she wanted.  I instantly realized she wasn't calling to me as I was in male mode and didn't know her.  But it's nice when our new names become finally become a part of us.  So much so that we have the same reaction to it as when we hear our given name.

Oh that is a pretty name!  I think we are at least lucky in the one fact that we can choose a name that we feel fits us and makes us comfortable, most people are just stuck with what they were born with in that regard!

it is one of the many exciting perks of transition getting to pick the right name
