Hi guys! I have a list of magic names for you. I'm trying to stick to small, approachable lists so this is a shorter one. In the future I'll make lists about specific kinds of magic (healing, curses, divination, etc) Thanks :-)

I have fairly vivid memories of spending a couple weeks with my grandparents when I was fourteen or fifteen. My grandparents lived (and my grandmother still lives) in this little town in the middle of nowhere, where there were only two things worth doing: going down to the river, and going to the library. 

The library wasn’t too much to speak of, though in retrospect it was fairly large, considering the small size of the town. Most importantly for me, it had computers available for use, and a decent enough teen’s section. And that little teen’s section, for whatever reason (maybe the librarian was secretly a witch) had a few books on witchcraft and astrology. 

It was in one of those teen-focused witchcraft books that I first saw mention of the concept of magical names. At fourteen or fifteen, that was a concept that greatly appealed to me. I was still trying to figure out who I was becoming, and I liked the thought of choosing a name, rather than making do with the one my parents had given me. 

I’ve since come to love my given name, and it resonates with me in such a way that I consider it to be my True name, and I tend to use it for most of my workings, especially since I don’t tend to work with the kind of entities that I should be wary of giving my name to. 

But back to the story: The magical name I chose as a teenager while staying with my extremely conservative Christian grandmother (because clearly I enjoye the thrill of sneaking witchy books into her home without her knowledge), was Ceres Rhodanthe. Ceres, for the Roman goddess of agriculture (because I’m a virgo and I read somewhere that the ‘virgin’ the sign was named for was Demeter, but I liked the Roman Ceres better) and Rhodanthe because it means rose blossom in Greek, and I, like many other millennial women, have Rose as a middle name, and I liked that it was kind of like Rose, but different. In retrospect, the fact that I was mixing Roman and Greek together like that is kind of hilarious. 

The choice wasn’t really something I agonized over. I probably spent, at most, an hour deciding that that was what my “magical” name was going to be. And personally, as an adult, I think the name sucks. Not because I dislike those names, but because the reasoning behind the names I chose was so shallow. Furthermore, I’ve since learned that it is disrespectful to take on the name of a goddess as I intended to do as a teenager. 

I still find the concept of a magical name compelling, but personally don’t feel the need for one at this point in my path. As mentioned above, I don’t work with the kind of entities that make using your real name questionable, and I don’t belong to a coven of any sort, let alone one where you choose or are given a magical name. 

“But Citrine” I imagine an indistinct voice call, “you go by Citrine in witchy circles online, doesn’t that count as a magical name?” 

I really don’t consider it to be a magical name. It’s a username, equivalent to the one I use in the fandoms I follow. The name has meaning because it’s what I use to communicate in online spaces, but I holds no more meaning than that. 

Even after 40-some years inside, the Craft can still surprise me.

A friend was telling me about her group.
