I'll be the first to admit I'm not super informed on a lot of trans stuff, but I'm curious. Is it because it's similar to your dead name, or something completely new? How long did it take for you yourself to get used to hearing/responding to it?
Obviously don't use your real name*
mine was originally autumn, then i changed it cuz i felt like i kinda outgrew it. then i heard katyusha, the old ass russsian folk song and i fucking loved it. started calling myself katya, and eventually switched over to the german spelling (katja) cuz i felt awkward using a russian name when i wasnt russian lol
