    Who knows. I let her get away despite us being pretty close friends. I think about her, I regret ditching her, but then I remember that not ditching her would mean I’d have to explain why I changed my name and I’d rather suck off a polar bear. Cis name changes are worse than genocide.

      “Why did you change your name?”

      “Personal reasons I’d rather not discuss, but just know that this name makes me happy”

      Proceeds to engage in genocide

      You really don’t have to explain anything. “This suits me better” is a perfectly valid reason to change a name, if you do feel like you have to give a reason
