Story time on what happened with my mum.
So, I’ve been using the name Sal for about 3 months now, but since my mum doesn’t really support me being Nonbinary, I haven’t told her about my new name, until the other day.
I brought it up, casually, asking her what she thought of the name, and it was fine until I said I wanted it to be my name.
She said that I’m too young to know who I am, and that she doesn’t like the name.
She also said that until I’m 18, I’m always going to be her little *deadname* and I’ll always be her daughter. She said that since it’s not the name she gave me when I was born, it doesn’t count as my name, and she isn’t going to use it. She also threatened to call my school, and make them change my name back to my dead name, since I got it changed on the school role ( can’t change it legally, but they use preferred names over legal names)
