subj: name stuff

I would like to hear about and/or from people who kept their names when they transitioned...

@mxsparks My assigned name was slightly but not severely male-cued, and I kept it for a number of years after transitioning. My thought process was "eh this name isn't amazing, but it feels like mine and will do for now. I might come up with something better later.

Like five years later I came up with something better.
