I think that in a rational society everyone should feel free to choose their name, and doing so should be a normal and expected rite of passage.

It makes way more sense to choose the sound people make when they refer to you, than having your parents choose it for you before you're even a person yet.

I would name myself Tyrannosaurus Sex

My youngest nephew was answering to Sonic for a while, I forget what middle name he picked.

Remember now, middle name was Finnigator.

Is that a thing I'm too old to understand or did he make it up?

Something he made up that sounds cool.

It would be polarizing, but decisive. And when people asked me if my name really was Tyrannosaurus Sex, I would say "hell yeah it is tofu-cool "
