For as long as I've identified with being nonbinary and trying to lean more into masculinity to counter how feminine I appear physically, I've hated my very feminine name. It literally means Princess, how girly could a name get x_x
But, as I get more comfortable with myself, with the help of maturing and mentally developing and with the help of friends and family, I'm slowly warming back up to my name. I wish to reclaim my DeadName but with a new twist to it I suppose.
It won't stand between me and my identity, but it will be a part of it. You see, it is a very feminine name, but perhaps I can reclaim it as MY name. Like as in, yes, I am a feminine non-binary who wears masc clothes and is clearly trying to be masc, but I am also still in touch with the femininity I was born and raised with :3 My name can stand for that. That despite everything I am still me.
I can one day get the hormones, grow facial hair and one day get the top surgery scars, but I will still be known as [My Name] :3
