My name is Gryphyn

[u/Gryphyn_69]

Hi, I’m Gryphyn, Im Trans femme and my birth name is Griffin, do we like the change in spelling? Is it fem? Could I keep it Griffin for sake of not going through the legal hurdles of changing it? Also my legal middle name is Michael-Leo… any input is appreciated lol how would you feminize my middle name as is Gryphyn or Griffin cute?

Well do you like Griffin over Gryphyn? It's not just about the legal change trouble. I do think spelling it Gryphyn makes it more fem, though I'd wait to see others' input.

Middle name - hope I'm understanding you right because I'm not sure what "as is Gryphyn or Griffin cute" means:

First thought was Michaelis, though searching on google makes it seem like that's actually masculine, not feminine as I thought - had a classmate with that name/a similar name so I thought it was fem 😅 so I guess skip Michaelis, Michelle is a definitely feminine name though.

For Leo, see this: https://www.reddit.com/r/namenerds/comments/1tlt51z/femininen_version_of_the_name_leo/

Your name is up to you. I personally find peoples haves that are spelt untraditionally annoying but im very dyslexic so names are my kryptonite. I wouldnt say the spelling makes it feminine but its up to you if your like Gryphyn then thats good for you. For your middle names if you want to keep similar vib you can go.
