  • Other "but name changing is depending on how much is the name is feminine or muscular and if your name is gender neutral you will be told that its not masculine/feminine enough for them to change it as a part of the gender recognition and they will do is as if you are just cis so you will have your dead name as your second name for the next seven years in all official documents "
