Jacob may be my future name Tyler is my OCs name.

Extra info: What up boyfriend is not saying I am a boyfriend but a boy that's a friend in a joking manner.

Not specifically pronouns but I need some masculine or gender neutral terms for when my mom and aunt are giving nicknames.

Also can you suggest terms that can sound less awkward but still masculine because I don't know what to ask mom to replace the terms with.

She knows my questioning and my aunt is fully supportive and finding terms for my questioning and leaning to being more comfortable a man or non binary.

I hope I am doing ok and valid by asking this. That said it may get time for them to get used to my aunt is making an effort.

been trying to find a name ever since my egg cracked and after going through the list of girl names from my birth year narrowed it down to these two.

When I started transitioning I asked everyone to call me Bethany/Beth, it's a lovely name and close to my dead-name so is convenient. Whenever I told people I go by Beth now they all have a "oh yeah that makes sense" kinda reaction, even my unsupportive parents, which has been nice. However for the past month I've been worried that I'll always think of my dead-name whenever I hear it, and that I will regret going for the most convenient option.

The other name I've been using this month is Valorie. I enjoy that it's completely detached from my dead-name and is a bit more unique. However I've asked a couple friends to call me Valorie but for some reason I feel a little more embarrassed when I tell them. It's not even a far-out name like lots of people go for, but it still feels a little more niche and I have an anxiety that I won't be taken as seriously.

So yeah, the reactions to Bethany have been so positive and I do like the name, but it's close to my dead-name so might be something I really regret once I've fully socially transitioned. And Valorie is another name I like and feels like a completely new person, but I worry people who know me pre-tansition won't take it seriously, and I'm also unsure how I'd feel if people shorten it to Val.

Any thoughts would be appreciated, thank you!!

So, I think that after 30years I might actually be trans. The thoughts about being a woman keep popping up more and more, and the name “Sara” is just burnt in there. So I just wanted to see what’d it be like to be Sara, a woman who is a mother and partner and just living her life the best she can.

hi! i’m genderfluid but only feel and identity with female and nonbinary identities. rae, with this specific spelling, is a name i promised i would never use on myself, despite it being my name minus a few letters, but after some thinking i’d like to try! i love star wars, the last of us, lady gaga, the tv show, archer, and i’m currently playing rdr2 for the first time!!

Hi. I am a mostly closeted probably trans woman. It hurts but the thoughts and depression caught up. I have terrible imposter syndrome lol

I draw, play videogames... And sleep???

I dunno I just want somebody new to refer to me this way.

I wish I was a girl almost everyday. But it feels impossible and I feel like a rebellious dummy rather than something real...

Im super negative I'm sorry

Hi everyone, I've been trying to experiment, and I think I might be genderfluid, but I'm not 100% sure.
As for topics, I like video games (Sonic, Pokémon, Genshin, Star Rail, Wuthering Waves, Minecraft), tabletop RPGs, fantasy novels and hikes, and I'm trying to get into the computing industry

I recently (today!) cracked my egg and now identify as a woman!

I'm Brazilian, so the actual name would be Valquíria, but Val also works.

I met a girl with this name like 5+ years ago and this name stuck to me for some reason.

I like the "powerful" vibe it gives off, but also I find it maybe a little cringe because it is kinda nerdy like "I love Norse mythology 🤓"

But leaning on the power side, I'm definitely not the girly girl, I have a bunch of tattoos and I want to get so many more.

Idk, what do you all think?

Edit: more info about me. I work as a programmer. I have two dogs Amora (blackberry) and Feijão (bean). I'm mostly into video games but lately I'm getting into cooking. I live with my girlfriend, we've been together for five years, living together for two. I listen to mostly metal, my favorite bands are BMTH, 5FDP, Atreyu, Trivium (I enjoy many more but I'd say those are the top ones).

Im agender and trying to figure some things out about my name. Right now Im very cis afab looking and I’m thinking of referring to myself by the name Tom since id enjoy presenting more masculine but I’m unsure since I don’t have a gender whatsoever lol

currently looking for masculine middle names that flow well with the last names Christensen and Castaneda! I am planning to legally change my name within the next 2 to 3 years! if you guys have any ideas, feel free to comment them down below! I'd love to hear them!

I'm a recently out trans man but still haven't been referred to as he/him or "man" :(

Hi, so. I'm a transfem who has been growing ever more GNC and genderfucky since starting to transition, and I'm somewhat curious if he/him pronouns would work for me in that sort of genderfucky context.
