Greetings! A community member asked us to share this project:
How did you choose your name?
Dr. Eric Joy Denise is collecting anonymous name-choosing stories from trans, nonbinary, two-spirit, intersex, agender, and genderfluid people for a workbook focused on trans self-exploration, self-determination, culture, and history.
No current or former names are requested, and individual stories will not be published. The project will instead identify broad themes that emerge across submissions.
If you'd like to share your experience, you can learn more and submit your story here: reclaimournames.com (Flyer attached.)
