the topic of what trans (or adjacent) people picked for names came up in a channel i'm on, and i'm kinda curious where the hell they all got their names from (due to a high density of certain names), so i'm doing a Purely Unscientificâ„¢ poll on a site full of people who could answer this. answer if you want, please boost if you want, i ain't gonna do shit with this info

(also: testing if polls on this dingus even work)

@libc Before I came out as trans my mom used to tell me that if I had been born a girl my name would be Sara, I liked it so that's the name i chose

In the poll I counted that as parents selected new name

@quirk i gotta wonder if doing that gives them a more positive view of your transition (if they didn't already? that's something i always wondered, considering the horror stories i've heard)

@libc At first I think my mom was worried that she caused me to be trans, because she had told me that story so many times 😆 and I'm like: mom, that's not how it works
