Changing Names

Identity, Authenticity, and The Labels We Give Ourselves For an artist, making the choice to go by a name other than the birth name can be a difficult one. For example, where did the name Feral Nifty come from? And why was Fawcett on the verge of being quashed? However, having a name that aligns with true identity and allows creativity to blossom can bring inner peace. In this episode, Feral and Fawcett talk to Rowan Jetté Knox, a bestselling author, speaker and LGBTQ2S+ inclusion and mental health awareness advocate. Hear how his journey from Amanada to Rowan was supported by his agent, publisher and readers, and how his name and gender transition allowed him to live into his full creative self.
