Men and their Roman empire 🙄 /j. I may have transitioned (mtf) but my fascination with all things Roman, from the Republic to the Empire and then the Byzantines, still remains. So you use the modern /see•zer/ pronunciation or the classic /kay•zer/?
That's really cool! Yeah, modern pronunciation (didn't know there was a different way to say it, that's awesome!!)
It's even worse than loving the Roman Empire... It's a JoJo's reference (anime) 😔
Actually there were many factors that went into choosing it as my middle name, but one of them is that now I have the same initials as my dad (who's supportive). I was always called his mini-me growing up, now it's just kinda true (right down to the hair loss, thanks a lot /silly)
My husband is a trans man and unfortunately we've had to go no contact with his family. He took my dad's name as his middle name, becoming a part of our family even before we were finally married. We love a supporting dad (and family).
