I tend to write in scratchy half cursive letters and i draw capitals rather large and the rest very small except the tall letters very tall and thin (like lower case L and f, long swooping j or g, long stemmed d’s)
So I wrote my on a nametag for work one day as the label maker was broken (still pretransition but very near finally starting) and I wrote “Eddie” in my weird scrawl. A customer mistook the d’s for l’s and pronounced it Ellie and it kinda stuck in my brain forever lol.
I had some friends that saved me from…Edith ugh.
Then i did a juke and went with Eleanore lol
