Love the old resonance of the name and now the new hawthorn symbolism! My father’s family stem from Celtic roots and I never knew this about hawthorns being gateways - thank you for sharing!

Maiden to mother is a big change. I'm really looking forward to seeing where it takes you.

Absolutely and that’s exactly how I think of this transition. “Girl With Antlers” has very strong maiden energy which is part of why it didn’t fit anymore. There’ll always be a part of me that identifies with that, but I’m ready to explore it in new ways.

This is the perfect symbolism for you and your writing style. I hope this renaming can also bring you some catharsis, or at least spur it on.
