    It doesn’t have to be entirely new, the short form of my new name is only one vowel different from the short form of my old name. I like the idea that transition doesn’t necessarily entail completely abandoning your former identity, some parts of it can be salvaged to build a new one, also this way my initials don’t change so my old email still works lol

      Heh, that’s a good point. I did just switch everything over to an email with my current name in it…

      Not at all related, but you’re note about being one vowel different reminded me of this

      There’s a word I English where adding a letter changes the gender of the word and from plural to singular
