well I've done it and it feels good to just have one name. I didn't change it too much, I don't want to loose consistency in my life. I'm not becoming a new person, just being more open and trusting about showing myself.
I've boldly changed my title too. Not sure how the world is going to take it but I figure those who matter will accept it.
I chose my forenames because of consistency and a deeper meaning that they represent 'everlasting strenght'
So here I am, ready or not, lol

Thankyou ♥ I'm desperate to properly celebrate but need to let work know first. My best friend of 42 years witnessed the deed and I signed the declaration to give up my old name a few doors from my childhood home. My parents are OK with it too, though I didn't mention the title. It's big time brave...I'm nearly 6ft and not even begun to physically transition.

I am totally jealous! Not as much for the legal name change (yes, jealous of that) but for the support you are receiving.
Someday I hope to join you.

I am a very lucky lady, never thought I'd say that given my body ♥ Slowly updating all my details, the bank should be a proper experience as I have to go in person
What to wear? Lol
