While any adult has the right to change their name, only in the realm of "gender ideology" does the given name become "dead," rather than just not being the legal name anymore. Only in "gender ideology" is the parent who carried the child, chose the name, raised and loved the child forbidden from speaking that name. Only in "gender ideology" do we change the meaning of pronouns from being a generic replacement for a proper noun based upon biological sex to a generic replacement for a proper noun based upon a mental concept of "male" or "female" that no longer has any meaning, since it is divorced from biology and (supposedly) from any gender stereotypes or societal notions of "masculinity" or "femininity," in which case "male" or "female" is a "feeling" of being something without any definition at all. I'm sorry your child has chosen to deny her biological reality, and, presumably to medically alter her body to appear male, risking an otherwise healthy body - and I am sorry society has told her this is necessary for her to be happy. "Gender ideology" and the havoc it has wreaked and continues to wreak will be looked back upon by history as a terrible blight on society and a medical scandal. Rest assured that not everyone thinks you are wrong for feeling this way about the name you gave her and what it means to you.
If anyone is in touch with their kids "WITHOUT PREJUDICE" ask them to use a different name and weird pronouns for you for a week to see how it feels? My daughter couldn't call me by my own first name even, too much for her to get her head round

What hurt me most was that my son also erased the middle name we gave him after my beloved father who died just before my son was conceived.
What both a Profound & Sad Story...what a Profound Sad Loss for Both Mother & Daughter. God Help Us!!
I am so sorry, dear.
May I suggest you write a book? Even in pain your writing is so good. We always want to go till the end, even in a world which so many materials.
Take care,

It always breaks my heart to see cults rip young people from their parents and anyone else who won’t join the cult...
