today I was minding two kids ages 7 and one aged 9. they mentioned my haircut and they invited friends over and one of the boys I mind asked "do you think they're a boy or girl" and he said "ugh... g- no b...boy?" and I was so happy ans they corrected him. then another kid came over and he said I could pass as a boy and asked me if I'm sure I'm a girl and I said yeah when I'm really not sure but I felt so on awe at these children who at first glance thought i was a boy. bless the generation

I thought about doing Lucifer because I liked the name (it actually means "light bringer" because it's associated with the morning star, Venus). Also wanted to spite the Christian family that isn't accepting, but it would just make things worse for me so I'm not. Did think about putting it as a second name just for fun, but since I took a "nick" name after moving I want to set that as my middle name instead to make it easier for name transition.

A friend of mine is transitioning and I don´t know why but seeing your videos makes me super excited for him. He hasn't chosen a name yet but we did have a one letter adaptation to his nickname instead of ending with an A it ends with an O and everyone is calling him that and with the correct pronouns ( except his non suportive parents and a few teachers). I really hope his transition goes as well as yours, he just turned 18 and a non_profit LGBT organization is helping him with his transition

you always upload videos about things that i'm thinking about, your timing is wild. thanks dude.

It's funny, when I was thinking of a new name, I was already thinking of Logan as one I liked for myself, and then I was digging through some old childhood stuff of mine, and I found in an "About me" book I had written if I ever had a son I'd name him Logan. And I had completely forgotten how much I liked that name when I was little. So basically younger me helped suggest my name.

Another way to involve your parents is ask them about their alternate options for your name. Many parents don't necessarily know what gender their baby will be so they will have a couple "boy" names and a couple "girl" names. I hope this helps:)

I'm genderfluid and I wear a wig and make up when I feel like a guy, but I was going out of the UK and my pasport photo was of me when I had long hair.

I know this video is old now but still, thank you so much. I’ve been playing around with different names during quarantine and this video has been a huge help x

My first list was 53 names long (unisex names bcuz I'm agender), then I shortened it to like 20 or smth and made mindmaps to things I associated with the names regardless of meanings, and then I picked my five favourites :) At the moment my choice is "Ryou Skye", it just sounds good at the moment. I'm mostly not out and still treated by my assigned gender, but mentally calling myself a different name feels good on its own :)

I love you so much, thank you for making the videos you do, they are so helpful, even to someone in America.

@DillyHughesxXx

Jellyton you have your beliefs and I have mine. Since when was scientific evidence needed to validate someone's state of being. Some people feel binary and others don't. I don't know why that it, it just is. I don't call myself gender fluid because I dress masculine and feminine. It's a mental state for me too and I also have dysphoria. It tried to 'pick a side' but I couldn't. I don't want to be a man but on the inside looking out woman doesn't feel right either. Why should I pick a side and be miserable just to make others happy and not offend them. Thats like telling a trans person just to be the gender they were assigned at birth and stop trying to be something else, there's no such thing as trans, it's all in your head or a phase. Sadly these opinions are real too. Being trans you should understand what it's like

This Christmas I finally got out to my complete family (and the family of my girlfriend) in the way that I do not wish to be called by my given first name anymore. My girlfriend supported me a lot, too. Everyone's reaction was from neutral to positive - this was one of the best Christmas gifts :) I now go by my nickname or second name, which are gender neutral or easily neutralized/genderswapped and since I'm still in the progress of finding out where to go, this is perfect. Like a blank sheet of paper, ready to be filled with whatever is me. Merry Christmas everyone.

Nobody will help me in changing my name or take me seriously when I reach out, so it's become really stressful. Thanks for sharing this, I found it really helpful.

I'm in Australia and changed my name when I was 15. I obviously needed a document for a minor, and signatures of both of my parents. We got the document online but had to actually go to the RTA (car licence and ID place). We also had to hand in every copy of my previous birth certificate. The cost for the change, filing, new birth certificate and change of name form was over $240 AUD.

Hey! Great Video! However, Deed poll isn't quite how it happens in Scotland, especially if you're born in Scotland. There's two ways: (1) with the Registrar General; (2) a Statutory Declaration. Bellow includes quotes from the Citizens Advice Scotland page about how to change your name in Scotland: -[1]- "If you were born or adopted in Scotland, you can record a change of name with the Registrar General." - This gives you an Amended Birth Certificate showing your Birth Name has changed to a Different Forename. You fill out a simple form which has details on your birth certificate (name, mother's maiden name, father's name, place of birth (again, this is only if you were born in Scotland)) and new name and pay & send it off. Pow. There you go. They do contact you if there's any errors in the form. -[2]- By a Statutory Declaration. This is, I believe, similar to a deed poll.. but Scottish. "You can also officially change your name in Scotland using a statutory declaration. If you are allowed to change your name using the process of recording a change of name with the Registrar General it is easier to use that process. A statutory declaration can be drawn up and witnessed by a notary public or justice of the peace." (solicitors).

jamie is so lovely I can imagine just sitting and chatting with him for hours he seems so knowledgeable and sweet (and attractive)

I believe in numerology and how important each letter can be is, kinda similar to zodiacs in a way. I found a name with similar spelling and the first and last letters are the same. I researched more into numerology and fell in love with this idea I had, I was taking away two letters from my birth name that reflected a lot on negative issues on my old self and replaced it with the letter d which can mean something similar to transitioning into your better self or just positive change in general I also took into account that my family (moms side) do not have any Irish in them at all, yet she kept an Irish themed names with all of her children, we all have Irish names, and the name spelling I chose is close to my birth name and it's an Irish name! Plus when I came out to my friend 3 years ago, she for some reason stuck to calling me Caid, so I've practically been called Caid since, and the name I chose can be simplified or shortened to Caid, so it's perfect! I went from Caitlin to Caidin(Caid)

Actually i just picked the Name that first Came To my mind and i‘m living with it for half a year now, i love it

um in the uk you can use a statutory declaration of name change as a trans person, its a lot cheaper and its a document that the government actually recognise more as well. it can be as cheap as £1 and then you have the fees from the solicitors, but it can be way cheaper than deed poll. just saying.

here because my thirteen year old sibling tried to come out via name change lol. they were named after a person too so that's gone down a mess. thanks for such a great video! hopefully if they reach out to me for help I can be more informed and supportive with this process. thanks again!

I live in the USA, I'm "in process"... it took me about 3 years to figure out what I TRULY wanted. just for the whole world to know, my full first name was "Christina", all I did was drop off "Tina" and my middle name started with an "L", so I picked my pet's name, and my last name I wanted something cool and personal, I picked Moon 🌈🌜I also got my name change for free since I'm low income. Here in the states, you go to your city court administrator, fill out all necessary paperwork, (Minnesota doesn't have rules yet) I went to court with two witnesses (boyfriend and friend) and am waiting for my new birth certificate and ss card in the mail, THEN I get official papers, take them to license place, bank, bills & anyone else you do business with. Finally, don't forget to change your online account names, or make new ones like I did! I've gotten IMPORTANT emails at my old address, so had to remember to change those too. I also included everyone I trusted to help me pick my name, they had so much fun! :-) Good luck to all who change their names anywhere on the planet! 👍👌👏

Tbh idk where if ound half the name options I liked. Also look for patterns in what u like, 1st letters, sounds, what color it reminds you of (idk that's what I did), meanings, length. My personal experience is I like uncommon J names & semi-common B & M names. Alot of the names I like reminds me of purple or red. Specificly my favorite names over time have been Jester, Bennett, Michael, stanford, Juno, Jupiter all over the place lol.

*BY THE WAY* For a deed poll in the UK you have to get parental permission (someone to do it on behalf of you) up until age 16 and then when you turn 16 you can get one by yourself. Because someone still had legal parental responsibility over me somehow after not seeing them for years and such, i had to arrange a meet up to get a handwritten letter to send off to the passport people as id booked a holiday when i was 15 under the new name and stuff thinking that when i had the deed-poll it was over, so that really sucked. But yeah now i'm changing my name again and this time i can put Mr in the front of it as well. Hope this helps, i had no idea i could do it alone at 16 so yeah

Not trans, but I am currently changing my name. From the next week I'm going to have all my documents with my new name. So excited ❤ (Changing your name in the UK sounds a lot easier than doing so in Italy...)

you are such an inspiration to me 😜

I'm watching this about a week before Christmas.

I asked my mom and she said Justin and I like it, it fits my personality so Im happy about the name so yea!

Justin is a good name

This is a really interesting video , I just wondered if you have any sort of soft spot for your birth name? Or did you find it easy to leave it behind?? I love your videos

Marry Christmas!

Whenever people ask me why I went by "Silas" I always just say "i dunno it sounded cool"

love this vid tbh. my mum sent off my sheet thing with my parents' signatures earlier today (to change my name by deed poll). can't wait for the documents to come (idk exactly how it all works but the thing we had to post has been posted). I'm legally Ryan Davies and my 'title' is "master" not "miss" now but I'll still have "f" and "female" on everything :/. It's a step in the right direction though haha

yearly news flash: trans guy helps community and now everything i see in the comments section is more trans and loveliness

When I first came out I felt super pressured to change my name so I picked something close to my birthday and I have been miserable about it since. BUT! I haven't legally changed my name yet so I get to have the name I really like when I do. And I've had a long time to think about it. So that's nice.

I brought up changing my name once to my fam just cause i hated my name and they were like no dont do that. I can only use a different name online it really sucks. I landed on Caleb really fast. It felt right.

I'm trans ftm but I haven't transitioned ( I'm 13 but my mom says I'm too young to think about that {insert sad face) but I first came out to my friends and classmates I trust, At first I chose the name Luca but I didn't feel happy with that name so I got like 11 other names and I finally got the name I love... My name is Zachary, But you can call me Zach for short.

HI Zach, good luck, little friend. You got this.

I found that making eye contact with myself in a mirror then reading the names off one by one helped me. I wanted a name that wasn’t overly common, but not too exotic either. I read off my pretty short list of about 10 names, and landed on Fin or Fyn. I know that it is highly unlikely to pick a name within a hour, but this means I can make other lists if I find any other names that may work. I just have through it through a few times.

I'm stuck between Adam, Andy/Andi, and Zach(ary) has anyone got an idea of which one sounds best (my surname is Davies)

I just changed my name to the same as my favourite character from a show I used to watch like every day like 10 years ago ahahaha. Ive loved that name ever since :) And whats really sweet, last time I visited my grandma, she told me shes always loved that name and always wished someone in the family had it. It made my day

I picked Josh as my new name and when I asked my friends to use male pronouns they did acceptingly but when the day came to tell my teachers only one refused to call me a he and would constantly emphasis SHE, you make think this is pointless but one day she was late to class and I noticed that her laptop was there (she left to get tea) and I decided to play one of your videos and before I knew it we spent the whole hour watching your videos and now people accept me and I owe it to you so thank you

I WAS FORGETTING THE MIDDLE NAME OMG thanks x'D

Wait... You live in the UK too? Been watching your newer videos for about a year (before I had even considered me being trans) and never knew that. I know this is very late for this video in particular, but thank you anyway for making these videos that have helped many people including me.

Apollo feels like me everytime I think of a different name I always fall back on Apollo

i chose the name anthony for my self i kinda regret it because at the time i started to transition i was obsessed with smosh and that why i chose anthony and now i wish i could go back and change it to jack or something (i've always loved the name jack) but you know it's been a year and i'm going to get my name legally changed soon so i can't really go back now

Gabriel Coppersan (I think that's his name) was documenting the process of trying to change his name for the second time. He might have documented it on his channel, but I'm not sure. I mean, you can go back, but it might be a challenge--not impossible though.

The free one works most places, people have successfully got driving licenses with it etc, but the odd bank can be a bit funny about it (going by the facebook group i'm in). I was so certain my name was gonna be Jake Elliott (surname) when i first questioned as i loved the names, but using it on fb i was like lol nope not me. When Luke hit me it just felt right, and I might actually use Elliott as a surname as Luke doesn't go with my current one and i've been looking for an excuse to change my surname longer than i've known i'm trans. But thank you for saying about feeling weird with names/pronouns being normal, i feel in limbo as i'm not really Jess anymore but i'm not Luke yet either but i don't feel like a 'they'/enby either. Nothing feels right atm haha.

My birth name began with "Z". So, I have Zechariah (like the bible) and Toby (why? maybe because Kunta Kinte) and Hyde (Jekyll and Hyde). I can't decide.

Thank you, I knew the information was out there - I'd just been too busy with uni to start looking for it actively. So, thank you for sharing. Just one question for you, did you need a Gender Recognition Certificate from your GP/Specialist before correcting your gender on the passport.

I came up with a really interesting name, i reallyyyy like it and it clicks so well. I go by Andriel Rose :) i love it a lot X3

Thinging about changing my name to Craig. It sounds nice and suits me.

When I first started experimenting, I chose the closest name I could to my birth name (Elis from Elizabeth). I don’t mind it, and I feel like it helps people adjust to it quicker. I feel bad picking a name that’s completely separate from my birth name, since it’s what my mum picked, but idk if I’ll be comfortable having a name so close to my birth name once I start transitioning. When I thought about my name, the middle name ‘george’ came to mind, and it’s kinda stuck. It feels weird thinking about changing it now
