I say this as a trans woman. I will support, defend and love you no matter what sis.
But....
Fucking Mildred!?
I had some friends that saved me from....Edith ugh.
Then i did a juke and went with Eleanore lol
Haaaa! I actually think Eleanore is a very pretty name, it has an elegant quality to me? Good pick! ♥
cishet dude here so i dunno how much what I'm about to say matters but I've always liked the name Eleanor(e) because The Practice is my favorite procedural series and in that show Eleanor was a badass woman with strong convictions and morals.
she also was in one of the coolest scenes in tv imo, having a very heated argument entirely in sign language. here's an unfortunately terrible recording of it: https://youtu.be/CwV9dHHQj-8
anyway i think Eleanore is a cool name, but more than that, once people associate it with you that's what they will think about when they hear the name, the kind of person you are. not the other way around.
Lol, Edith and Mildred are literally my grandmothers' names. Edith is a badass and just turned 99.
