Daily struggles

So I'm thinking of changing my name to something more gender affirming. I haven't decided on a particular name yet. So I'm just trying out names that I like. I told my friends and my family that I'm out to. It went something like this:

Me: Hey I'm trying out this new name. I'd like you all to call me by this name until futher notice. My pronouns are still they/them.

Friends and Fam: Excellent! Hello. When are you going to permanently change your name so we can throw you a name day party?

Me: Look I just thought about this. I don't even know if I like the name I chose. I'm just trying it on. It's like a free subscription to Tidal. Of course I'm going to try it cuz it's free but I don't know if it's worth my money yet. Changing your name is expensive. If I do it, I probably wouldn't do it until I've have to replace I renew other expensive documents.

Friends and Fam: So like two years? How far away is does name day party?

Me: Ugh, fine. 2027... Maybe!
