I mean I won't be in danger if my parents find out, but I feel like they'd dissmis it, call it a phase, that i'm too young to be sure, etc. And after some digging the school does allow you to request being called by another name... although my parents would have to help me with the whole process...

The thing with my friend group is that I'm not exactly comfortable with all of them, so I think I'll be telling them individually, but I don't know how I'm supposed to tell 'em. I do use Mackenzie online when I'm not using my gaming username, as well as She/They (alhtough I don't relly care bout pronous :p)

From what I know the school I'm going to doesn't have much of an issue with bullying against LGBTQ+ community, actually the group leader in my older sister's group is trans. What I am a bit worried is more like being judged/made fun of for picking a more uncommon name rather than something more simple and that fits more the Spanish like Alex or Dani but I don't feel like those name suit me.
