Hello! I'm Sage/Megan, an adult Autistic Bi-Graysexual Biromantic biological woman (she/her) and I’m a solitary eclectic witch and ordained Dudeist priest! Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff! Wand: Apple! Patronus: Field Mouse! Sun: Scorpio. Rising: Aries. Moon: Libra. I’m a white American who is ethnically Ashkenazi Jewish and was raised with an interfaith upbringing. I’m a Jewish pagan witch. Godspouse of Loki. Hebrew Name: Miriam Yosefa. This blog is scaresafe (I tag my horror)! Note: white supremacists/neo-Nazis and Messianics are NEVER welcome here (if I do reblog a post from a Nazi/white supremacist or a Messianic, please let me know and I will delete it)! Hate, bullying, and discrimination of any kind will not be tolerated. Also, please do not ask me for medical advice or legal advice. I am open to questions about my practice and questions about general witch-related things.
I renew my devotion to You as Your Godspouse in words, deeds, and even blood. I love You and always will. I will always be Your wife now and forevermore. Nothing and no one will ever be able to part us, my husband. I will always be loyal, devoted, honest, respectful, and playful with You.
I love and feel connected to several names that I want to choose for my Hebrew name and thus I am unsure which one to pick! My chosen English name is Sage (which means “wise; healing herb”) & my birth English name was Megan (which means “pearl”). Also, I was raised in an interfaith household of mostly Catholic with some Judaism, so I didn’t get to have a bat mitzvah when I was younger. Hence why I’m choosing my Hebrew name as an adult which is exciting! I also tend to overthink things, hence the poll. The second part of my Hebrew name is going to be Yosefa, so these names I’m considering are for the first part of my Hebrew name. To clarify, I’m of Russian Jewish descent which is why I’m considering Russian Jewish names for my Hebrew name.
Name Meanings:
*Simcha - Joy
*Miriam - Bitter; uplift; Beloved
*Margalit - Pearl
Also. these names I’m considering are for the first part of my Hebrew name since I’m solidly sure about the second part, Yosefa, in honor of my late Poppy.
So I’ll put the names together for y’all:
•Simcha Yosefa
•Miriam Yosefa
•Margalit Yosefa
These three names got the most votes in my last polls, so that’s why there’s now 3 options.
I love Miriam and Margalit so much that I honestly wish I could legally change my English name (Sage) to either of those names, but alas legally name changes are a hassle & expensive.
I’ve still been rethinking my name change decisions now that I am happy as the biological woman I am. I’m wondering if I should have kept my birth name and just used Sage as a nickname/fun name instead of legally changing my name. I had picked Sage during my stupid nonbinary phase because I had wanted a unisex name to reflect the nonbinary identity I used to believe I was, which I now no longer identify as.
So I’m now wondering if I should keep my name as Sage or should I go back to Megan being my legal name? I love the meanings of both names as well, which is also why I’m unsure which name suits me better between the two (the perils of overthinking). I admit to very much missing having a feminine name since I have always been a girly girl, but I’m also quite hippie-like so this also makes my decision harder. I do also think that the meanings of Megan do suit me well since I was a miracle baby/premie & I really miss my childhood nicknames based on Megan (Egger Megger; Meg/Megs; Meggie). I do like the nicknames for Sage (Saggy; Sagster; Sassy; Sasa)!
I’m still unsure what to do about my name. Should I keep my name as Sage and figure out ways to love it as a woman or change my name back to Megan (my birth name)? 🤔

In the beginning of time, when the cosmos were being created, so too was the Nordic goddess Sol, brought into the universe along with her brother, Mani. Initially, the role of the siblings wasn’t clear, but after they created daytime and night, and also the phases of the moon, Sol and her brother were assigned their destiny. At a meeting of the existing gods, Sol was anointed the goddess of the sun, and Mani god of the moon.
Thor
The name is derived from Old English Þūnresdæg and Middle EnglishThuresday (with loss of -n-, first in northern dialects, from influence of Old Norse Þorsdagr) meaning “Thor’s Day”. It was named after the Norse god of Thunder, Thor. Thunor, Donar(German, Donnerstag) and Thor are derived from the name of the Germanic god of thunder, Thunraz, equivalent to Júpiterin the interpretation romana
Odin
The name is derived from Old English Wōdnesdægand Middle English Wednesdei, “day of Woden”, reflecting the a variation of the Norse god Odin
Frigg
Friday is named for Frigg. A few Icelandic writers appears to have called it “Freyjudagr” (it would for sure fit better with the Latin name), but this did not catch on and the modern name is derived from Frigg’s.
Tyr
The English name is derived from Old English Tiwesdæg and Middle EnglishTewesday, meaning “Tīw’s Day”, the day of Tiw or Tyr, the god of single combat, and law and justice in Norse Mythology
Loki
Saturday, the final day of the week, was originally known as Laugardag (formed from Loki’s name, but it translates to wash-day). When adapted to English, the day did in fact maintain its connection to Loki. The word Saturday is based on Sataere (the thief in ambush).

I’ve still been rethinking my name change decisions now that I am happy as the biological woman I am. I’m wondering if I should have kept my birth name and just used Sage as a nickname/fun name instead of legally changing my name or if I should have chosen a different feminine name that I love more (Zelda). I had picked Sage during my nonbinary phase because I had wanted a unisex name to reflect the nonbinary identity I believed I was which I now no longer identify as, which is now causing some dislike of the name Sage due to my poor reasoning for choosing it. So I’m now wondering if I should keep my name as Sage or if I should change my name again? I love the meanings of all 3 names as well, which is also why I’m unsure which name suits me better between them.
I admit to missing having a feminine name, but I’m also quite hippie-like. I do also think that the meanings of Megan or Zelda do suit me well since I was a miracle baby/premie, I really miss my childhood nicknames based on Megan (Egger Megger; Megs; Meg), and I really like the nicknames based on Zelda (Zee; Zel; Zelly; Zellie; ZuZu; Zelle; Zazz; ZaZa). I do like the nicknames that come from the name Sage (Saggy; Sagster; Sassy) though it seems like there a lot less nickname options compared to Megan and Zelda.
I’m still unsure what to do about my name. Should I keep my name as Sage and figure out ways to love it as a woman, change my name back to Megan (my birth name), or change my name to Zelda? 🤔
