Middle names should be good little nuggets of meaningful poignancy but then people just slap in common meaningless stuff like "Lynn" or "Marie" or "Lee".

This is why I appreciate my middle name so much. It was my great-grandmother's name, since she passed right before I was born. It also follows the flower naming convention on my mom's side, and it flows nicely with my first name.

my deadname was Jesse, so i picked Jessica as my middle name because i still have a good relationship with my parents and didn't want to totally cast aside what they wanted for me.

(one of the good parts of realizing you're trans is you get to pick your own name)

I have a decent relationship with my parents too and I like my first name (Alexander, but I've always gone by Alex), so I decided to keep it as Alexandra. The rest of my name has to go.

I'm liking Rowan as either a middle or last name.

Naming yourself as an adult is actually pretty cool.

"Alexandra Rowan" has a lovely flow!

I have already spoken on the tragedy of my middle names, so I'll just add that my parents learned from their mistakes...kind of. They gave my brother the hideous middle name of Galen, but only that one.

Because HE got the hyphenated last name!

Hippies and drugs, man.

My older brother's aunt (his father's sister) is named either Galen or Gaylord, I'm actually not sure. I've never met the woman, and my mom just refers to her as "your brother's aunt Gay".

My parents didn't have any names picked out for me if I'd been AFAB but the other names they'd been considering were both plausibly unisex.

No offense to your parents but Daisy Paisley is an unwieldy lump of a name. It doesn't flow at all.

I am reminded of that lady of a decade ago that had a multi-page list of demands for a future partner, something that would now qualify as a list of red flags on r/relationships or so. Someone in GBS found her blog. If I recall correctly her name was Jacqueline Paisley O’ Massey something something?

A teacher at my high school was named Mr. Henroid. (don't recall first name) I think he taught down in "shop." I never had his class, sadly.

A girl I went to that same high school had the first name "Spacenter." (a portmanteau of space and center) Her parents were former hippies. Nice family, though.

I worked in an office at a university where I once encountered an international student from Thailand whose name was Pornsumar Assavapokee. Porn, rear end, and poke all in one person's name. She handed me a form she'd filled out and I told her that her handwriting was very pretty (it was,) but I think she thought I'd told her that she was very pretty. She blushed furiously and stammered and I felt like a total loving idiot.

Worked at an investment company with an Egyptian fellow whose full name (first and last) was Morcos Morcos. I trained him, and part of his job was he had to load cartridges and data reels in a server room. I came in one day and he'd covered all of the HVAC vents with cardboard because it was too cold in there for him. He was transferred shortly thereafter.
