She proclaimed her new name on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine, but Caitlyn Jenner's transition is finally official.br A judge on Friday approved Jenner's request to formally change her name and gender, marking another milestone in the Olympic gold medalist's public transition as a transgender woman.br Jenner publicly transitioned to a woman in recent months after revealing her intentions to journalist Diane Sawyer in a televised special and debuting her new name and look on the cover of Vanity Fair magazine.br "Although public support for my transition has been overwhelmingly supportive, I am also receiving unwelcome negative attention from private citizens, including threats of bodily harm," Jenner wrote in a sworn declaration.br Los Angeles prosecutors are still considering whether to file a criminal case against Jenner over a February traffic collision on the Pacific Coast Highway that left a woman dead.
