Say if someone came up to you and asked “If you were a boy/girl what would your name be?” could you answer them without needing think or is that not something most people give a thought to?

      I’m asking everyone.

      I’ve known the answer to this question since well from as early as I can remember. I was curious if this is something other people think about often/ever.

        Maybe transgender people do. I knew my name for the longest time, and when it came time to transition, it was an easy choice.

          yeah, I had a name picked out for me long before I knew I was trans. It was just, “The girl name I identify with” in my head. There were no signs.
