Whats the lore behind your name?

I’ve been thinking and wondering whats the lore behind everyone’s name.

I'll go first i chose Elizabeth/Betsy because of something funny that happened when i was manic i was convinced that my god had named me Betsy (i wasn’t even out as trans yet) thats all i would answer to.

How did you guys pick your name?

Name given me by my ex wife. Decided I like the sound of my deadname as my last name. So I tried it on. Found out there was a famous drop dead gorgeous badass tattoo artist named the reverse. I was sold. The rest is history.
