I've actually IDed as nonbinary for like 5 years now and I still haven't picked a different name. Of course not everyone does this, but I don't like my birthname at all. I go by a shortened version of it professionally which is better, but its still a gendered name. Nothing I've considered really feels 'right' and maybe I'm scared of asking people irl to call me something different I've sorta considered asking my grandma to give me a Cantonese name, as those tend to be far less gender specific. I dont know if that'd be weird though, because I don't even speak the language or know my grandma that well Anyway whats your guys' experience? Especially interested in NB ppl if anyone's out there --- (they/them) | http://large.horse/ Show Icons on posts: https://openuserjs.org/scripts/melon/GameFAQs_Show_Icon ... Copied to Clipboard!

Im a binary trans woman, and l picked the name that my parents would have given me if I was afab. It just clicked with me and I never really seriously considered other names, I feel like I really nailed it with this one It was still a little weird at first, but it passed pretty quickly once people started to actually call me it --- Officially Certified Gamer Girl in 27 states She/her ...

I dont think my name really has any gender neutral nickname forms, its kinda just 2 girl names crammed together lol --- (they/them) | http://large.horse/ Show Icons on posts: https://openuserjs.org/scripts/melon/GameFAQs_Show_Icon ...

I'm agender but I never changed my first name because I don't mind it that much. (Though I have given it thought once or twice) I actually did change my last name when I got married and took my wife's last name which was only a couple years after I started to identify as nb, and it felt like a fresh start :D TeaMilk posted... and maybe I'm scared of asking people irl to call me something different This, I can relate to though. Im too awkward to correct people when they misgender me, so I sure as shit don't think I'll ever be confident enough to ask them to call me an entirely new name. --- http://poorcouplesfoodguide.com Agender, curry fan, Top 10 lister, indie dev, gym hitter, musician, et al. ...

I always liked one name because it sounded like the name for a sexy librarian. But my family has this thing with M middle names and I didn't feel sexy librarian-y enough to have that as my first name. So then I rattled off names that sounded good and it all sort of resulted in my current name. Plus when I looked at the meaning of my names years later I realized I was always meant to have my name. --- tfw no big tiddy goth vampire gf who lactates blood - viewmaster_pi ...

I have one if I ever decide to "go farther" or whatever is a more appropriate way to put that. It's just one I always liked and has the same initial as my current name. It's not the total feminine version of my name, but it's sort of close. I prefer it to a closer alternative. I use it a lot for online stuff or when I can create my own female characters in video games. --- http://i.imgur.com/hslUvRN.jpg When I sin I sin real good. ... Copied to Clipboard!

anyone else "use" one new name for a while, but then want to change again? i like my chosen name, but i like another one more. it's just a lot more androgynous than i'd like (and it's moderatly anachronistic), so i rejected it the first time through. but over the years i've warmed to it, especially since it has a diminutive i really like. --- Boom!
