    I have always preferred male pronouns. IDK, just always have. They felt more "right" to me.

    As for names, well, if I had to go by another name I would choose Rory. It is mostly masculine, but is used among women as well. So sort of androgynous. Plus, Rory is the Last Centurion...if you know what I mean. :icon_wink

    I'd prefer neutral pronouns, though society doesn't acknowledge it as a singular pronoun and will either call you he or she, so it doesn't matter TOO much to me; between he and she, I think I like he/him slightly more, though it depends on the day as well.

    I've been trying Cody for a couple weeks now, it's fairly close to my given name, even though my given name is super feminine and there's no neutral or masculine alternatives or nicknames for it. I wanted something as similar as I could to my given name (since I don't plan on legally changing it). If I do end up finding another name I like it'll most likely start with the "K" sound.
