This reminds me of the lines in Romeo and a Juliet…
“What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;”
In our tradition I have known quite a few people who have become ordained. It can be challenging to pronounce and remember their new names! Often though, the name given does just suit them somehow and it sticks easier than expected. There is however one person, who after nearly 20 years still forget his ordained name for some reason 🤷🏼♀️
I’m glad you have been able to see the bigger picture and keep what is meaningful for you.

Thanks Elly. I've been saying Buddhist names for twenty years and I still struggle with them sometimes! 🙏
