My name came from the tag on the scrubs I bought for my job in the medical field. According to the Urban Dictionary it means

"A Denice is a very caring, loving, affectionate, honest, trustworthy, awesome, amazing, and smart person. A Denice would give anything to make someone else happy. A Denice is sweet and funny and makes everyone smile by showing off her beautiful smile. She is very tall and gorgeous! Anyone who doesn't want a Denice must be slow in the head or just plain stupid!"

Something to aspire to.

Another take on "Denice":

The name Denice is an American baby name. In American the meaning of the name Denice is: Feminine of Denis or Denys from the Greek name Dionysus.

Quite simply, my mother's first name, although she used 'Maureen' normally, that being a shortened version.

I thought about what I was trying to say with my name.

Eris is the goddess of chaos. Certainly we bring a disorder to the rigid binary of gender expression. Lunara refers to the moon. The moon has always been a feminine symbol, plus I like walking at night by the moon.

I guess my name would kind of translate into "chaotic moonlight" I like that...........

I got the whole idea from someone who goes by "Moonmaiden"

Not exactly sure why but for some reason one of my early role models was Lauren Hutton thus Lauren. My original middle name was Oliver after my father. In a way his passing was what got me to actually take the steps to become the woman physically I was born so to honor him I chose the feminine Olivia as my middle name.
