    oh my fucking god i have a girl name and she/her pronouns now oh god oh fuck

    for as long as i can remember i never liked my name but i could never find any masc or unisex name that fit but even just getting used to a new, femme name and i'm already getting flustered just referring to myself as that in my own head

      Feels pretty great, don't it? After so long, it still makes my heart jump hearing my pronouns and my name. I hope the same goes for you meow-hug

      I was in the same boat. I actually started using a pseudonym about 15 years before my egg cracked. I hated my deadname and I honestly didn't know why. Kinda just took it as fact and left it at that. And now that old legal name is gone and should never be uttered ever again =w=

          Hasn't worn off for me - over three years in and I still have to rewind a conversation in my head to figure out who they're talking about when strangers use my pronouns. Then I realize "oh duh they're just calling me what I am" and I get all smiley.

          For some it does. It still gives me a shot of happiness hearing it. Probably cause I don't hear it that often due to pet names being a thing.
