After my wife had given birth to our baby, the nurse asked me, "Do you have a name yet?" Beaming with pride, I responded, "Yes. Steve!" She giggled, "Awww! That's a lovely name!" I replied, "Thanks!"

"But what do you think we should call the baby?"

[WON] Those close to WALTER note he is politically very left leaning and comes from a working class family in Austria and donโ€™t believe he would have given the name Gunther Stark the go ahead if he knew it's origin. Belief is WWE came up with name and failed to research it

>Those close to him note he is politically very left leaning and comes from a working class family in Austria and they donโ€™t believe had he personally known heโ€™d have been okay with being named after a Nazi. In the past he never wanted to bring negative publicity to pro wrestling in Germany and this would have done so. Stark means โ€œstrongโ€ in German. Gunther Stark, the Nazi U-boat commander is not that well known of a name in Germany or Austria. The belief is more that WWE came up with the name and failed to research it before trying to trademark it, or if they did find out, thinking the name was so little known that nobody would care.

I didn't realize just how combative people were about deadname vs given name vs birth name

Just put as possible trigger because I know this can be a sensitive topic for some. Stay safe, my brothers, sisters, and siblings!

So I found a post on r/MadeMeSmile about an older landlord seeing a trans girl's deadname on an application and being like "why the hell would your parents give such a pretty young lady a boys name?" Wholesome, cute, I loved it.

In the comments, someone asked what a deadname was. Plenty of helpful people replied.. but then people started drawing lines like "it's only their deadname until they get it changed, then it's their former name". I contributed a bit as a trans guy who uses birth name instead of dead name for personal reasons. But just seeing that thread..

People got downvoted for saying "it can also be called a given name". The invisible lines people drew were so dumb. And the annoying thing is, a lot of them were cis! I guess the even worse part is that there were other trans folks drawing lines and arguing that birth name or given name is transphobic.

It just makes me feel incredibly invalidated. What I call the name I was born with is my choice. It's not transphobic to prefer birth name over dead name. And it's not silly to not change what you call it after a legal change. Someone literally said it was "silly for them [trans people] to still use deadname after it's changed" (not a direct quote btw). This was stated by a cis person.

That's just so frustrating to me. As a trans guy, I'm used to the "ew phallo* is so disgusting, it's not a real d***, why would you ever want that". But having people police what I call my given, and currently legal, name is so dumb.

*for those who don't know, phalloplasty (phallo) is a type of bottom surgery for transmascs, and currently there's a lot of people who will say things like "I'm not hating on phallo, but it's just so ugly and I could never live with having that between my legs".

Genuinely curious - what is stopping people from leaving Eth to a competitor (to name a few, Algorand, Solana, Poly, etc.) given the cost of transacting?

Please donโ€™t shoot this down as โ€˜anti-ethโ€™ or โ€˜complaining about gas feesโ€™. Iโ€™m just curious what keeps other people here holding Eth? I am basically holding mine until fees drop and I can exit or the roll ups save me.

The other chains are more readily scalable, generally quicker and cheaper. Yes they arenโ€™t as โ€˜bigโ€™ but, letโ€™s be honest, for most of our purposes that is pretty irrelevant.

If someone told you their daughters nickname was Lovie, what would you think her given name was?

Iโ€™m having a baby girl in April and I like this nickname for her, but Iโ€™m wondering if anyone will be able to tie it back to her given name in the same way you might be able to tell that Sam is short for Samantha or Samuel.

Edit: Everyone who guessed Olivia is correct! I loved all of the other names, and the train of thought that maybe itโ€™s not related to the name but is just a term of endearment is pretty spot on too.

Pepino PSA: Can we all spell her name correctly, please? Itโ€™s Hillary with two Ls. Not one L. Plain basic American spelling regular Hillary Lynn Hayward-Thomas is her birth given name.

Calling her โ€œHilaryโ€ is giving her actual non exotic non unique birth name an exotic spin that muddies the waters and could lead someone to think that her birth given name did have a Spanish influence from the start, which it did not. Itโ€™s just Hillary.

Please and thank you.

Edit: Iโ€™m all for the nickname variations, btw. Iโ€™m not in anyway against those, I use them too. The need for proper spelling of her name only applies to when we are referring to her by her birth given name, so that it is clear that she was not given an exotic variation of the American name Hillary at birth.
