I am thankful to trans women for making "Jadzia" a common and ordinary name.
(Jerboa won't let me use Dax emoji here.)

Thank you.
What the fuck is a Polish name doing outside of Poland, and why is it in the diminutive form and not the standard form of Jadwiga ππππππ
Star Trek
Polish culture will survive the unforgiving pace of time! πππ
Wait now that I'm thinking about it, would it be ok to call a non-Polish Jadzia a Jadwiga as a Polish person? It only makes sense to me, as we only use the diminutive form for close friends and children.
And I mean they chose the name Jadzia after all. Also how the fuck do Americans ~~butcher~~ pronounce the name?
That's my aunt's name, damn
I love my trans comrades (because if I do not they will destroy me with their terrifying power)
No please don't hurt me
Also if you have any super cute femmy nb friends maybe tell them to come destroy me instead?
super cute femmy nb friends
That's like 90% of my friends nowadays and the other 10% are either super cute androgynous and / or genderfluid enbies or super cute trans women, the latter of which are mostly named Sarah and accordingly lethal. When i tell them to destroy a guy, they will also assume i mean "by using a bladed weapon", we're going a bit overboard with the whole sword lesbian thing atm.

What energy does an old lady's name have, like Matilda? 
Old lady's name is the standard stereotypical trans girl thing to pick lol
Cackles in Gertrude 
You aren't powerful enough to invoke the name Gertrude. That's a name for a lady who has family recipes for shit people haven't even eaten since the great depression memorised.
it radiates pure elegance
I keep getting disapproval from folks because I'm refusing to pick a new name and my current one is very male. Oh and people who're otherwise very supportive pivoting to assuming I'm a she/they enbie that just doesn't know all the lingo.
I have to be like, "Yes I know what non-binary means, and just because I don't dress super femininely or want to change my name to Branwen or some shit, doesn't make me one."
Hm 
KJB had a bit for a minute about insecure trans girls just going to "Girl Names" website and picking the first one they find on the list to get it over with.
Five years later, Alices and Abis are out here rocking your world.

Rania is extremely common in Algeria, so I look like moron when I turn my head when I hear someone calling another person named Rania.
hey rania πββοΈ
Hello
my name's "normal" on my region, but foreign-sounding/"abnormal" elsewhere
what does this make me? π€
Formidable
A native predator
Mines the same but the opposite. In other countries its super normal. But, in mine its uncommon enough that all the other (same name queens) gal pal around over it whenever we meet another one.
On what level of terrifying energy is "Erika"
terrifying even on a cis woman
I think it's a nice name
associating it with umineko makes it terrifying

But what's their pit bull's name? I'm guessing Morningstar's is "Destroyer of Worlds and Consumer of Souls", the friendliest little goofball you'll ever meet.
cute puppers gotta have a cute name
Out of coincidence I picked a name that was in the top 10 most popular girl's names for my birth year. I just liked how it sounded :meow-shining:
I remember back when I first started questioning my gender, not knowing I was trans yet, I used to call myself Jessica for a while. Later I realized how incredibly common that name was among trans women. 
It felt like every group would have at least one Jessica.
This was the issue I had when choosing my name(s) I didn't want to pick something super common. I've not ran into someone with the same name after 8 years so I'm glad I made a solid choice

my actual (not username)femme name is super normal and also kind of androgynous and i was lucky to be told repeatedly by my mom of my "alternate girls name" when she was picking out names. i prefer using the more andro nickname too but i'm a pretty butch transgirl anyways
was one of the many first eggy things that tickled my brain.
I have a double barreled middle name, along with a first name, I'm not sure what power level that is
I have a normal name but I got it from a socialist revolutionary from the past which makes it cooler and inspires me to do good things.
