Thank you everyone.

The only problem with the name on my birth certificate is I hate it, and really no one refers to me as it, with the exception of alters sometimes who use it to refer to me. Some of them call me Jude (the name on the certificate) and some say Vince (the name I prefer to use). Both refer to me though.

I wrote down a list kind of asking them what sort of name they want. I suggested Griffe (after all, it is the user name I use) but they said that was "too much referring to me".

They really like the "The Pack" or "The Pride" because of the animal names but I think I'll look awfully loony if I go around referring to us as that, but I don't know. Now that we're finally communicating it's hard to. Trying to please everyone, including me.

Saying "we" when I'm referring to the whole system when I'm with people who I trust and who understand the situation makes sense, like when I get into seeing a T. But you're right, I don't want to go around and talk to work-mates saying "we" or they'll think I'm very loony.

Thank you all as always.
