recently, i finally choose a name i think it's pretty and shit (Amanda). i essentially tested a bunch of names and this is the on i liked the most. so i told my friends and they liked it as well, but one of them made a joke by calling me A-MAN-da. i know it's a joke and i'm not mad about it, but it made me really self councious and now i'm lowk thinking abt choosing another name, which is pretty annoying cuz i really like this one...

also, english isn't my countries language, so most people wouldn't even think abt making this joke. still, i'm really annoyed by this situation

you need better frens also no one who isn't an asshole like your friend will mock it and even with another name assholes (like your fren) would mock you over something else
its a lovely name and not clocky please don't change it
>>
i would just not choose that name surely theres other names that you like
you have the advantage being able to choose any name you want why choose one that can obviously be made a transphobic joke out of you will get sick of hearing it

im sorry :( thats super lame. and amanda isnt a clocky name, ive actually never met a trans girl named amanda before and i have met a lot of trans women. i think you should probably tell your friend how it made you feel. if you like this name and feel that it suits you well then i think you should go for it! i dont really know what the process of picking out a name is like since mine sort of just came to me when i was a kid. but mine is also incidentally way clockier so

>A man, duh

>you have the advantage being able to choose any name you want why choose one that can obviously be made a transphobic joke out of you will get sick of hearing it
i choose this one cuz i like it more compared to other. but the thought of hearing this joke over and over does bother me a lot...

yeah, it's kinda unique and i like it

>i think you should probably tell your friend how it made you feel.
they aren't usually like that, so idk what made them do this...

>>44220209
that's exactly the problem...

On the other hand, Marisol is the most clocky shit ever. Type of name I would have chosen in primary school to name a barbie
>>
>>44220103
if it makes u feel better my mom got bullied in highschool that exact same way and she changed her name when she got married
>>
Honestly they would probably make fun of you regardless of what your name is because they sound shitty... that said this is why when parents name their kids they try not to name them something that they could be bullied for
>>
>>44220103
tell them you will choose another name bc of their joke and say it really affected you
