Or at least a name that starts with the same letter? It seems that whenever I read about a transexual this is the case. Is it really? If so, why?

I changed my name from Ron to Melissa. I wanted a name that was really feminine and not associated with my male name. I think it depends on the individual. Some women keep the name similar to their male name to show that they are the same person they were before, just female. I wanted to show that I'm completely different now. Hope this helps

I actually like the fact that all three girls will have H names. The only thing is, that Hallee and Haven are hard H sounds. (You can actually hear the H.) Honor isn't that way. I'm not a huge fan of it as a name. It goes great with Charlotte, so if that's what you're going for - keep it! People on here might hate it, but it's your baby. Hallee, Haven, and Honor are three very unique names. In the mean time, might I suggest something with a hard H sound at the beginning? Hope Charlotte? Harlowe Charlotte? Heidi Charlotte is also adorable. Good luck to you!

Most of the time thats the case but at least 25% of them do not
since they were born with that name they have become close to that name so they want to keep one something like it.
See if i were to be a trans everyone would expect my name to be Kris or Chris where my name is Kristen Elizabeth
but it would probably be (and this is no joke) Rhuairidh
Trystan Tylor and then my last name

My birthname is Daisy, but I changed it to Lucas, Luke for short. I don't really know any transgendered people who do keep a name with the same first letter or that sounds similar to their birthnames, actually... I chose the name Luke because my mother told me that had I been born anatomically male, that would have been my name, so I was sort of forced into it. I just did it to be nice. I had wanted to change my name to Matthias or Jonas.

Not always, but it is often the case simply because if it is similar to what your used to being called you will respond much more often. Myself, I went from Walter to Sabrina, so not similiar at all. I choose the name because I thought it was really nice and fit me well, plus it is hard to make fun of.

Not every case. For instance, I know a Paul that goes by Viviana. And my name is Rob, but I would be Loquacia Frere Jacque Renevante Strawberry Jones. How hot is that?

Some do, some don't.
I had a boyfriend who's original name was Andrea. Her family called her Andy beforehand and during transition. I used that name during transition, just so I wouldn't out him during the process. After he came out as a guy, he took the name Jason.

It's totally up to them. If they do choose a similar or close name, I think it's beacuse they only hated their gender and not their whole identity.

Some do and some don't. My old was Ryan and my new is Sarah, so a big change in my case.
