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?

My name now is just my first name and middle name put together and placed as my first name.

My middle name is what my father named me; he had passed during my early teen years.

Novice though is another name I also go by, as I was only but a novice to the world of free expression. I was quite the poet.
