Today in class my teacher said that the rules of etiquette say that if a person is transgender, you should address them ONLY by their NEW pronouns and name, and nevermind if you met them before their transitioning and know their old pronouns and deadname, AND I'M SO HAPPY TO HEAR IT, OMG, AAAAAAAAAA

ID: a Facebook post by That SJW the nazis warned you about:

“Shuhada' Sadaqat lost her life today. I am infuriated to see almost nobody respecting her chosen name (yes, I am aware she released music and played live otherwise. I am also aware of the impossibility that really rebranding her name like that would have been), or who she was at the end of her life.

Very few even mention that she changed her name, and converted. Those who do only mention it in a passing sentence while clearly avoiding it as much as possible.

Way to disrespect someone who suffered enough.

Let's go to sleep. Inna Lillahi wa Inna Ilayhi Raji'un”.

I’m pretty sure people who learn my male name with their only knowledge of me is that I like mythology they’d probably assume I named myself after the god Apollo. They are wrong I named myself after the ace attorney character

As someone who goes by a chosen name, it bugs the shit out of me when I see fanart and posts about The Last Hours that refer to Ari as Ariadne. I know that’s what she was called for most of the trilogy, but it is like a whole thing where she decides to go by Ari instead. Ari is her new name and there’s a lot of meaning behind it. It has to do with reclaiming her heritage and her own identity as an interracial adoptee and a queer person. That’s a big deal. I feel like a lot of people missed the point of her doing that because they still call her Ariadne.

One of the annoying things about being trans is trying to use your chosen name as much as possible without getting caught by your parents. Like my chosen name is decently feminine so in a vacuum my parents might understand changing my name but considering my mom has always been on high alert about me if I told her I wanted to change my name she'd be like "TRANS??!?"

Anyways the worst part has got to be all the 6D chess I have to play choosing which people to use which name for. Like I've been going to another church to separate from my parents when possible, so since I was in a space away from them I decided to use my chosen name. But then my mom brought up the possibility of my brother joining me at the church I select, and if he does that, I have to use my given name. So I've been my given name there now.

But there's no chance my family makes it to school, so I've been using my chosen name there. But one of the people who used to work at McDonald's with me is in my class, so now I have to avoid talking to him so he doesn't find out I'm going by Kestrel instead of my given name. And there are just so many things like that. I can try to keep my spaces separate, but people just move around so much that I'm bound to encounter someone in the wrong space at the wrong time. So every introduction is such a struggle, trying to figure out if I can get away with my chosen name with them, or figure out if they're ever going to get near my family or the church people. And it's just ridiculous how much planning goes into this just trying to keep myself safe.

hey um. fellow trans people. when you meet someone with a stereotypical chosen name, or a noun name, or a name you think is weird, your reaction to that should not be to laugh or comment negatively on it. chosen names are deeply personal and often cultural and/or spiritual. it is not your place to comment on other peoples’ names.

#corvidforest #i saw someone on tiktok saying the name Kai was a scourge on society #if i had seen that when i was 15 and went by Kai i would have stopped telling people my name #like idc if it’s stereotypical or sounds weird to you. it is never worth making someone insecure about #we should be celebrating the inherent beauty of chosen names #not getting wrapped up in whether they’re unique/normal/cool enough #trans pride #transgender #chosen name #transmasc #transfem

Hearing your friends so effortlessly say your chosen name is so wonderful. I love my friends and they love me- not just who I was, but who I am now as well. That’s so special and rare. UGHH HAVING TRANS/NONBINARY AND SUPPORTIVE FRIENDS IS SO COOL!!💗💕💖

So a fun thing about my chosen name is that it's basically my very gendered deadname followed by another name I like that goes in the opposite direction gender-wise. So it's basically "[Deadname]-[Chosen Addition]"

Examples of this: "Synthia-James" "Chris-Marie" "Edward-Jessica"

Both halves of my name are my first name, and I consider the combination of the two to be my chosen name. However, if it's just the first half alone, I consider it to be my deadname, and if it's the second half alone, it just kinda feels weird. This is why I always tell everyone I introduce myself to that both halves make up my first name and I'd rather not be called by just one or the other.

So, I already have an unusual first name based on this. But the thing that makes it funnier is that my ANAB (assigned name at birth) is a random ass Scandinavian name that it seems only 2 people in the entire US have ever heard of. And as someone who was born in and never left the US, I have had it mispronounced/misspelled to hell and back.

But I kinda liked my assigned name and thought it was pretty and unique, I just didn't like the gendered aspect. So I kept it as a part of my chosen name. And then the other half I chose is a name that is ridiculously common in the US.

I was assigned an already uncommon name, and then instead of choosing to have a name that no one will misspell, I chose the most wild possible type of name I could.

Choosing names for yourself is crazy.

One of my favorite ways in fiction to make someone's chosen name valid is tying magic to their name. Things like fae not having power over someone because they know their deadname, and that isn't their true name. There's a new superhero comic where the mom tries to keep them in place with talismen that work based on name, and it doesn't do shit because "this is written for *unreadable scribbles*. That's not me. It never was"

Magic, even if evil, still thinks you're valid. That's nice <3

"but chosen names are hard, I still know you as [deadname]"

When people find out we have a deadname by seeing it ONCE they forever file it as our only name and never call us by any chosen name ever again even after knowing us by our chosen names first
