rant warning! so, im afab. i have a rather uncommon fem name. my fam knows me as she/her straight and fem name. but to everyone else i use any prns and im aceflux and pan. i dont rlly like my name, its not ugly or anything but i feel like it doesnt suit me. i LOVE the name river cuz its genderneutral and natureish. i want to come out to my family but i dont want them to think i dont like my name or that im trans, cuz neither of those are true. my 2 cousins on my dad's side are trans and the other is bi. idrk but i need advice on how to come out. june is pretty soon but idk if i should wait. i wanna use the name river but i don't want them to see me different. im also a therian so idk how to tell them that either. any advise is appriciated!
also pookie if ur seeing this call me river (not infront of adults or infront of them idrc) update : im a les not pan lol
