Ok, but “her name” is a highly problematic concept. How is the name her parents gave her, including her patronymic, more a woman’s name than the one she chose for herself? Why is a chosen name society genders male necessarily oppressive or inauthentic? https://twitter.com/terriwindling/status/1293784682459521029

When you publish Vernon Lee, who often wore “male” clothes and had female lovers, as Violet Paget, is that an act of liberation? Or an act of posthumous violence? Are you putting her in a box she spent her life getting out if? How might you be diminishing her?

Women are almost always already writing under men’s names. Goss is my ex-husband’s name. If I went back to my birth name, I would be Muszbek, my father’s daughter. A woman writer’s name is the name she publishes under. To “reclaim” another also means to impose it on her.
