Re: Considering changing my name/ some possible overthinking
in reply to a message by helianthus
It did take me a long time; I'm SO indecisive, and I kept looking for a name to "jump out" at me, but nothing ever did. I never had any magical, spiritual moment of finding THE ONE, though I sure tried! Like you, I liked a lot of things but didn't think I could pull them off, because I am extremely boring.
One thing I would do differently, if I did it again, is not worry so much about that. I wish I had been a little more bold with my choice, because I realize I actually love it when people don't "match" their names. I played it safe, and I regret that now.
I agree with you about Frida, I think it'll become cool again. You'd be ahead of the trends! Eden doesn't give me fundamentalist vibes; quite the opposite, actually. It feels very fashionable.
