I actually talked to my father about my name, before I changed it. I wanted to know what he thought, even though I know what my name is and what name feels right. I found out though, that my middle name, which is currently Jean, was only because my mother pitched a fit because my father wanted it to be Eugene which was my grandfathers name. So I am very happy about that because I wanted to make my grandfathers name my middle name anyways, and finding out that is what it should have been all along just confirms for me how right this all is.

I'm about to start the process myself ... you got me thinking .. I have a name picked out but there is a tradition that the males on my dad's side that their middle name is edward. I really want Koop as my main name cause everyone already knows it and lyndon as my middle name because it's close to my given name and my parents now call me lyn. I'm thinking maybe i'll hyphen my middle name and make it lyndon-edward. Does that sound too weird?
On another note I hope I represented us well yesterday. Someone doing a project for school on the transcommunity interviewed me. I think she asked 1 question and then i just started talking and covered all her questions and stuff she hadn't thought of.
