i / me / myself

Postby hypnowave » Thu Aug 12, 2021 10:55 pm

    as much as i like rey i don't feel like it comes off as masculine enough for my taste, especially since i picked that name before i realized i was a trans dude and wasn't nonbinary. i've been looking at name sites, talking to friends, making lists, and yet i still can't find something that feels 100% right AND IT KILLS ME. there are still a few names i'm actively considering (namely cameron, jun, and noah), and i don't exactly hate rey or ray, but i'm still a little frustrated HSDFHSDGSJDF

    nothing much to say about this piece, it's pretty lazy tbh
    i just needed to get my thoughts out somewhere where i know it'll be seen :p

Ah man, I can only imagine your frustration. Don't put so much pressure on yourself, though! Take the time to find something that really truly fits you. Something that just clicks. I know you'll find that perfect name. Sending you lots of virtual hugs and support, man! You've got this <3

I feel something really similar with this!!! Take all the time you need to find your name, buddy ^^
tbh though I just pick whatever name I like and keep it for a week before deciding I don't like it
and snatching another from the name bin lol. I think I might keep this one though we'll see qwq

i hear you. finding your name can be super hard, i used to have a name for years and then i realized that i had completely fallen out of liking it and had to spend like upwards of a year trying on different names fgsdjfd it's kind of like finding usernames that you like but it feels worse

it's also very cool art though, the emotion comes across really well

    i'm kinda going through the same situation !! suga was the first name i've chosen to be put on here, but at one point i wanted to change it. (also people think of me as a bts army HUSCJGKHLAK)
    but, whatever name you choose, i'll still be there for you : )
    best of luck !!

      omgdskjghkjsg i totally get that. nobody calls me it, but my name (adrian) is really close to my deadname. i've been considering changing it to something else, but i'm not too sure what i'd change it to :weary:
      all in all, just do whatever makes you comfy!

      jun is such a cool name tho what the heck i love that
