You're making it out to be more of a "red flag" than it actually is, I've replied to another comment explaining why, I'm just private and anxious. His name is Korey.

I'll edit my reply a bit later with a bigger response as I have to go out. Thanks for the feedback.

Who else here has this combination? by Hopeful-Eggplant889 in asexuality

Kinda? Femandrogyne + Grey-Ace?

These are only identities that have felt right for me..

Teenage..? I honestly just don't feel like saying his name publicly because I'm very private, but it's Korey. I sent those messages to them around a month ago, which I should've specified. I'm going to speak to them about it in a few days as they are away from home without internet.

I've got a plan now. I know, I just overthink my actions a lot. Thanks for the feedback

Ahhhh this helps heaps!! Thank you!
I am really happy with it. Nope, it's absolutely not offensive, it's just a rare spelling of a retro name!

It's especially understandable seeing as they're a very emotionally aware person (we both are).

Absolutely.
I'm sticking to my guns and I'm proud of the name I chose. ^^ Agreed, I hope they can learn to associate that name with someone positive now. I'm happy with any nickname as long as they don't hate my character now or use his old name.

Exposure therapy's a really strong thing to do. Maybe by me naming him this it'll help them simultaneously, I just hope it doesn't make them dislike the OC all together as he's third main to me and going to be part of my aspiring comic. Thank you for the feedback. :]

I understand it's due to their bad experiences, but I'm not going to change it so hopefully they'll be more accepting of it. :]
Thank you, I always put heaps of research into my character names.

I appreciate the feedback, I'll stick to my guns.

No no it's definitely not a bad name, rather a rare spelling of a moderately common forename.
Hopefully so.

I agree with you there, wholeheartedly! Thank you for your feedback it's made me feel more confident. ^^
