HelpRe: Caitlyn
in reply to a message by Joiya
Yeah, of course she wouldn't call herself something that seems "old" ... but her name wouldn't have to seem like a counterpart to Bruce, just to not seem pseudo. I think there are lots of nicer names that aren't badly dated and would have been more believable. Caryn, Jennifer, Joanna, Christa, Rebecca, Ellen, Charlotte, Vivian ...
I agree her taste is probably just dated by how old she is but it still comes off as wannabe-young and vaguely pathetic. Admittedly, my opinion is probably influenced by the magazine cover image. (I would say that even if she was not trans)

Actually, Caitlyn reminds me of a soap opera name where a middle-age character has a trendy, top-ten name that doesn't quite ring true. OTOH, I imagine she's had a lot of time to mull names over.

Yeah, put a 65-year-old in a what is that? a corset? bustier? on the cover of Vanity Fair and you know the name is going to be way too young. I'm predicting he's going to be all over the news in various lingerie type outfits. Midlife crisis times ten.
