Which name do you think sounds better?

Im MtF and when I finally transition I was to change my name.

The two options I've been considering right now are:

1. Alaska Jade (jade as middle name)

2. Savannah Jade (jade as middle name)

which do you think sounds better? Why?

My mom thinks alaska is a whore's name, do you agree?

Also if you have any other names that would be awesome!

    The name Savannah Jade sounds better between the two. It is easier to remember, it flows better when you are saying it, and it conjures up nicer images than Alaska Jade does.

    I'm sorry, they both sound like heroines in really trashy romance novels -- Alaska Jade sounds like Indiana Jones' love child with an Inuit lady, and Savannah Jade sounds like somebody who lives down the road from Scarlett O'Hara.

    Seriously, kid, unless you mean to be a nightclub singer, look for a name that suits the kind of life you mean to live. Unless you mean to run a wilderness outfitters' store or a ski lodge, "Alaska" is going to sound a little silly.

    Google baby-name sites and see if you can find a name that suits you. And remember, you're looking for a name that won't sound funny when you're 50.

    Speaking of which, the Univ. of Chicago has a free e-book every month, and this month it's written by a transwoman who transitioned in her 50's... the link should be good for about another week:

    Good luck, whatever name you choose!
