I've been wondering for a while. Why is Alice such a popular

From Alice in wonderland. Girls draw a lot of parallels between the story and transition.

They want to BE the rabbit hole. Come inside me anon

>>8121431
I highly doubt it's from a shitty scottish band most people haven't heard of anon.

>>8121315
is it weird if i just haven't seen this? i've seen maybe 1-2 alices at most.

could the meme be doing the opposite and making the name less popular by driving people away from it?

>alice in wonderland is a popular favorite among poser "outsiders" (actually normie as fuck)
>bonus points of they feel like they actually are alice inside a quirky mad world
>first letter in the alphabet, first shit you would think of
>fairly pretty and normal, not snowflake
My conclusion is that as always, the majority are lazy, unoriginal normies who feel they are actually truly special, probably because of the trans thing. However, in a trans context they're absolutely not special for being trans, so everyone is Alice then.

As the Caterpillar said to Alice "who are you?"

It's quite intriguing about the notion of changing one form to another and why should it be weird to do so. If it is your natural inclination to do so...

Declassified documents from the CIA's
Monarch program indicate that popular books and films were used in various brainwashing techniques,
including the Alice in Wonderland series and the Wizard of Oz series.

They probably didn't even listen to the song and don't intend to listen to this one. Don't worry too much about it.

This is true. I'd do myself a disservice by listening to any song not on DAMN. tbqh

One of the first names you see on a A-Z list of names that isn't shit like "Abarintha" or "Ada." Fits in almost any time era.

>>8121841
>ada

I like that name, though its too conspicuous, what about Ava?

>>8121854

Too far back on the "A" letter alphabetical listings. You'd see Alice before Ava.

But yeah Ava is nice.

>tfw I barely know the story of Alice in Wonderland yet Alice is one of the first names I came up with and people still bring this up

>>8121601

I don't see any trannies using the name Dorothy or Toto.

>>8121315
Because they want to emphasise the rabbit hole

This just seems to be mostly a 4chan meme. I see people on here talking about the name alice but never zoe which is the more common one.

>>8121315
alice in wonderland, low-iq tranus will be goin down a big rabbit hole and relate bc of that

>>8122191
Toto is a dog's name and lol at you not having seen the name Dorothy.

>>8122931

I know Toto is the dog's name. It's just what other names are there? And I really haven't seen the name Dorothy used by a tranny or a cis girl.

>>8122948
>It's just what other names are there?
Elphaba.

>>8121315
My old name doesn't have a feminine version. I liked Alice and thought it would work well because of Alice in wonderland.

Someone's going to have to explain to me how Alice in Wonderland relates to transitioning.

>>8123331

Well you see Alice in Wonderland was a fantasy book about nonsense so that means trans girls name themselves after Alice because their brains are filled with fantasy nonsense. Just like how FtM's name themselves after the Aiden Cat from "Through the Looking Glass."

>>8123341
Bit of a stretch.

ITT asspull theories

>>8126173
Enlighten us, then, Alice.

I'm a biological male happy with my penis etc, but I've always liked the name Alice.

I like the story of Alice in Wonderland, too. There's also slight loli connotations I won't go into.

>>8121315

It's a popular nickname emo kids used to give themselves too in the early 2000's. Its association to the young Alice of Alice in Wonderland makes it seem edgy and cutesy while it's not a particularly common birth name of the last 30 years which makes it "unique".

>>8126663
>edgy and cutesy
Explain how something can be both of these.

>>8126522
>There's also slight loli connotations I won't go into.
Oh?

>>8122948
Toto is a band's name: they play sweet sweet music... unlike that Cico rifraf trolling on this thread.

I think you've proven your point.

>>8127197
How are edgy and cute at all contradictory?

>>8130661
They are polar opposites.

>>8122191
Gee, I hope not.
Toto's also a Spanish slang name for pussy. You'd have to be pretty damn dedicated to irony.

>>8133762
That actually sounds like a pretty good trans name then.

>>8133762
By the way, is it just me or does it feel like half the words in the English language are slang for vagina in some other language?

>>8134042
Damn patriarchy.

Actually, given how much modern english has taken from Shakespeare, I'm disappointed at the amount of words that don't translate into dick jokes.

>>8133762

I'm aware. What was the first Spanish word you learned for vulva? For me it was popa as a child.

>>8133762
In some Spanish speaker countries we even use it for ass, like "shake your 'toto' "

>>8134749
>tfw no trans gf named Toto that shakes her toto at me

Is Alice Cooper transgender?

>>8122293
Why is Zoe a common name, then?

That entire album is solid.

>>8121385
I mean, I did choose it because I love Lewis Carroll's work, but that was long before I even knew what being trans was

>>8142884
Pleb.

>>8142741
Why did you choose it? Surely you've been browsing this board long enough to know how common it is.

>>8143237
It's common but I always liked Alice also my name started with a Z before so I figured a name starting with an A would be a nice change

>>8143237
Not her, but just because 4chan says something is common doesn't make it so.

>>8121315
it's because of touhou weebs

>>8144296
Heh.

>>8143888
You should have named yourself Zalice. That would have been a cool name.
