I don't know if this is right sub

I wonder if my experience being trans is not unusual,,I was really close with my art teacher and I loved her feminity, years later when I excepted my true self and started dressing up,I based my look on my art teacher, I done my makeup like her and even changed my lipstick from red to purple like her, she always wore floral maxi dresses or long skirts with a matching top , she wore flat sandals gold and I bought a wig same colour and style and still dress like her.i haven't seen her since school, but I always wished I was her or like her,,, any body done that with a female they knew,,is it weird?

Axel He/him

I don't have a lot of ppl who knows about my second name and prn, so I'd like to hear it a bit more :] I'm an artist and I enjoy watching series and playing video games!

If possible I would like to hear my name when someone is talking directly to me, but I would also like to hear someone talking about me so I can hear my prn a bit more.

Trying out Averen, they/she

Hey, i just came up with this funky spin-off of Avery a few months ago and wanna try it out. I have been using it to mentally refer to myself, but idk about real people, and wanna see how i feel. I have an issue with the pronoun "her" when it refers to me.

Some basic info about me: I like death metal and dubstep, play guitar, and enjoy learning about history. I am the middle child.

Grayson and Kay [anything but he/they]

Just wanted to try out things other than she/her, because I don't feel like I'm a cis woman, and I want to see how they feel.

edit: accidental misnomer in the title, I meant to say anything but she/her, but I was mixing it up with wanting to try out he/they. I would also like to try out Milo if possible as well.

To tell you more about me: I enjoy art, drama and singing. I love dogs, minecraft, video games, EPIC: the musical and just musicals in general.

Hayden (she/her)

Hey! I kinda just came to the realization i might be trans (id explain the whole thing but don’t want people having to read 10 paragraphs) so just wanna try out a name and pronouns to see how it makes me feel first

Emma, Nora, or Amira (she/her)

Soo I've been kinda driving myself crazy trying pick one and I honestly am so scared to ask people to start calling me by one of these and using she/her pronouns. I'm sure it's just imposter syndrome but my brain says "you'd just be asking people to play along with your ridiculous delusions"(even though I have already accepted I am a transwoman and came out to my mom and the only friend I felt like I could trust with this and will be starting HRT very soon)

mac (ftm)(he/him)

i’m trying out he/him, so if y’all could write some sentences that would be very helpful! i try to use it with my partner when we’re alone because im not sure yet how much i like them so im not ready to make the leap to asking others to use these pronouns. also still unsure about my name, but its a nickname of my birth name which makes it easy lol. that will be a later issue 🤣

Kate - She/They (24MtF)

Hello! I’ve been questioning/reflecting for a few years and decided that I’d try testing the waters today with the name/pronouns I’ve been set on to make sure this feels right. I’m hoping to come out to my friends sometime before the new year but I’ve been super anxious whenever I think about it and I’ve been feeling very stuck in convincing myself to tell them. Think I’m mostly just fearing change and dealing with a bit of doubt, since they’ve been very supportive when others in my friend group have come out.

I’m really interested in doing 3D art and earlier this year I even got an associates degree in Digital Art and 3D Design. I haven’t done a ton of 3D stuff after graduating though since I’ve been trying to learn (and stay motivated to learn) Blender after using mainly Maya for my courses. I’m also into a lot of different kinds of video games. Some of my favorites are Terraria, Signalis, Guilty Gear, Banjo-Kazooie, and Dark Souls just to list a couple of random ones.

Sorry if this post is pretty lengthy compared to others. I’ve never actually posted in a Reddit community before on this account or my main one since I only really use Reddit for looking up stuff. I also might not be able to check replies right away since I have work in like an hour, but I’ll try to reply to comments when I get the chance.

Thank you!

Mika/Micah, or any potentially neutral sounding names starting with M

Can I get a sentence or two with they/them pronouns? I like basketball (particularly Steph Curry with the Golden State Warriors (am disappointed that they were going so well this season before losing 5 in a row but that’s a bit off topic 😅), Harry Potter, the TV show called “Community”, just to name a few interests you could use.

Any name, any pronouns

I have been questioning for too goddamn long, try literally any name and pronouns. Preferably stick to the more common ones (she/her, he/him, they/them, some combination of those, fae/faer) but honestly just go fuckn wild, anything could work at this point

Thank you in advance

Makena (Kena) or Isabella (Izzy) she/her

I have really been leaning towards Makena but Isabella keeps popping into my head too. So I wanted to get some feedback.

Thanks! ❤️
