My new name !!

Hi Everybody,

First, I want to say Merry Christmas and Happy upcoming New Year!!! I really hope and pray that everyone has a wonderful holiday this year and Santa brings you just what you wanted for x-mas!!!

So, I filed for my name/gender change last month, and when I did, I did some deep thinking first. As a much younger person I developed my female persona naming her Brenda, since my birth name is Bret. I wanted a name that was close to my own so I would be able to easily process it when someone called my name. And this still holds today for me.

But I am starting a new life, I am 8 months into HRT with plans to transition, and I want to start my new life without any negative background issues, memories or people from my past I would rather not see. I am no longer the person I once was, I have dramatically changed becoming a positive, compassionate, loving person who desearves a name with no history.

So, I decided to legally change my name to Breanna. Breanna is an Irish named and I have Irish blood in my body. (But I don't drink green beer) LoL The website will not let me change my User Name from Bren58 to Breanna, but I see my new name is showing up here. So, I'm sorry if anyone is, or has been confused in any of my posts or comments, I hope this clears things up.

And, I have been asked, so, you can call me Breanna, Bree or Bren, it doesn't matter to me, just don't call me late for x-mas dinner!!! LoL
