Hi everyone!

Basically I want to change my legal name to something way more non-binary, including my middle names. I already know there's a state application process and I'll have to get my passport changed and all that.

Are there any more hurdles I'm not considering? I don't even know what I want to change my names to yet, but I know at least one of my middle names won't be "normal" so I'm a little worried about how that might work legally? Maybe I'm worried about nothing. I live in Texas if that makes anything different.

If anyone has advice or had any experiences they hadn't considered at first, please let me know. I'm kinda excited about this.

Oh, and I still haven't decided on any names, so feel free to suggest any lol. I'm looking for mainly like neutral to femme stuff and also naturey sciencey words that aren't typical names. I kinda have a punk vibe too.

Thank you everyone and I love my trans comrades!

    What's wrong with using your name in organizing spaces? Now I'm a little worried since I've been doing that for more than a decade already. Should I be using an alias? I'm already a minor D-list commie organizer around these parts, everyone from the socialist student orgs to the local Republican Party knows who I am. Also I did have some fire-y words on my short list, like Scorch and Bonfire, but I'll still try to figure that out lol
