Hi! I'm wanting to socially transition more from FtX and I really want to change my name. However, I have a lot of doughts. I don't mind my birth name but I really like the name ivy. Is it okay to change my name just because it feels right? Or do I need a better reason?

Hey aven1861 -- quite simply, I can't think of a better reason than something feeling right for you. Even if you don't mind your birth name, the only thing that matters here is how you feel when you're called one name over the other. Here's a resource we have about social transitioning; it also has some information about legally changing your name if that's something you ever want eventually.
