[tracilicious]

I'm actually thinking about this a lot lately. My divorce will be final this week and I'm not keeping Michael's name, nor am I going back to my father's name. I want my own name. I'm dropping my middle name in favor of a variant of my great-grandmother's name. I write with this name as my first name, so it's occurred to me that I could just drop Traci legally and people could still call me that if they like. Or not, I don't feel a strong connection with the name. I think we should all name ourselves. It's quite fun.
