"You are really doing something right that your daughter is choosing to invite you so intimately into this process. I have a handful of friends who are transgender with various degrees of support from their families, but none that felt like their parents were so reaffirming and supportive of who they are that it felt right that they still received their name from them. Ugh, my whole heart is so happy reading this!"
"She's incredibly intelligent, bookish, shy but spunky, and a total sweetheart,"
"Gorgeous, curly red hair and freckles."
A mother asked Reddit users to suggest a name after her eighteen-year-old transgender daughter requested to be named by her mother. Both parents have been 100% supportive, and the mother is excited to welcome another daughter into a household with three sons. The daughter is described as intelligent, bookish, shy but spunky, with curly red hair and freckles. The family shared ancestry and siblings' names to guide suggestions. The request generated nearly three thousand responses, including many name ideas and numerous commenters praising the family's reaffirming support and emotional bonding.
