TELLING SOMEONE MY NAME WAS SOMETHING ELSE

i thought it was kinda funny to give people a completely different name when they ask for mine but i did it to this girl once and the joke went on for too long. when the reveal finally came it wasn’t that funny anymore bc i had been quietly laughing to myself about it like a psycho for days and she was just confused. i would still do it again.

I have come to really appreciate my name. it’s not terribly hard but not super familiar in the u.s. I work in food service. I was sort of recently given a short nickname that stuck. I don’t mind it, first nickname that ppl actually use. Now I offer it to customers if they ask my name. Idk why it feels vulnerable to give ppl my real name. I feel like I’m protecting a part of myself from strangers by offering the nickname. unnecessary but I am growing fond of it. Now my name feels more intimate. To be used by ppl who know me. By ppl I trust. <3

It's my name

the lore isn't that deep buuuuuuut reading everyone's responses reminded me that, around the time i was 25, i read something about trolls and online communities, and how the best spaces are the ones where people feel accountable to each other. i think anonymity plays a big influence in that, so i use my real name online because i want to normalize doing so, and also because i want to reduce the distinctions between online eth and irl eth. what you see is what you get

promotes positivity pro tip, dreams don’t always make sense - so when weird/bad stuff happens, you can shrug it off and be like wow what a weird dream bro 🤷
