For some context, so that this makes sense, Sherlock is trans and previously chose the name Kai but doesn't think that name suits him anymore. Before you comment, I know Sherlock isn't trans, it's just a headcannon. Also, Sherlock is a teenager here.

Mummy, can I ask you a question? - Kai

Of course you can - Mrs.H

If I was born a boy, what would I have been called? - Kai

Me and your dad always loved unique names, like Mycroft and Eurus, so we would have gone with Sherlock but I always liked the name William - Mrs.H

Ok. Thanks - Kai

You're welcome. Darling, why are you asking me? - Mrs.H

I want to change my name - Kai

But I thought you liked the name Kai - Mrs.H

I did but I don't think it suits me anymore - Kai

Whatever name you choose, I'll always be there for you, Aurora - Mrs.H

I'm not Aurora anymore. It's Kai now, well it was. You've got to accept that - Kai

I'm sorry, sweetheart. It's just going to take time for me to adjust but that doesn't mean that I don't love you so I'm sorry if I upset you - Mrs.H

It's okay, mummy. I know you didn't mean any harm - Kai

Thank you for forgiving me. Do you know what your new name will be yet? - Mrs.H

I'm not a hundred percent certain but I really like the name William Sherlock Scott Holmes - William

As a matter of fact, I really like that name too. It suits you, William - Mrs.H

Thank you, mummy - William

You're welcome, my son - Mrs.H

I have a headcannon that before Sherlock would sign letters/texts as SH, he would sign them as William (with very swirly handwriting) as he wanted to copy his older brother, Mycroft.
PS: Anyone know what Mrs Holmes' real name is? Because I've googled it and keep getting different answers.
