BTW that scene whem Ymir jumps off the tower....when she talks about dying, she's obviously talking about when she was turned into a pure titan. And then given a 'second life' when she randomly ate a titan shifter and became human again. Her 'second life' inside the walls is what she means by becoming a new person, but she didn't use a new name because she wanted to remember her old life a little bit.
