HelpRe: Caitlyn
in reply to a message by New_Chloe
Yep, we're pretty cool. ;-)
FWIW, I don't view Chloe the same as Caitlyn (or even Caitlin). It's a classic with an ancient history. It's always been in use; it just sort of blew up in this generation. Re: Elena, I deliberately chose something that had a link to my former mn (Ellen) and family names (Ella, Ellen) as well as something that wasn't common in my generation or in any generation, really, of women born in the US. Now I'm sure in many countries around the world, Elena is a dd, an aunt, a cousin, a mother, a gm, etc.

Yeah, Elena is an older name to me, but I love that it is getting some love lately.
I have always felt connected to my name. When I changed it, I just removed the double-barrel. I can't imagine feeling a disconnect with your name entirely... that would be rough.
