I can't stand being called a given name or so in real life, feels uncomfortable... I would rather just be called pronouns all the time (e.g., "You! Come here!" or "I like him a lot."). Is this self-centered? I don't know, I just can't see myself being called by a real name. This bothers me for some reason. |

A name isn't a title, though.

yeah but what happens when you get a driver's license
in all seriousness that is pretty selfcentered it's a lot harder to insult someone when you're restricted to pronouns

"yes ur literally the only one"
Now I'm not too sure if this is some snarky sarcasm or not but let me make myself clear: I was not being literal, I was exaggerating. It's called a hyperbole. Most, if not all, of the time, when someone asks if they're the only one who does a particular thing, they're not being literal. Don't get so upset over it. |

And doesn't not having a name basically wipe you from existence?
...Wait, why am I saying this? I'm probably one of the OTers that are the most opposed to existence. Really though, not having a name completely wrecks nearly all forms of communication, if not literally all.
(Titles? Let's just say you can't have a title without having a name.)

I don't know. I just feel like no name belongs to me. I'm not sure about official documents. Also, of course you can insult someone without using their name. "You are a ______!" |

Neongoo, how so? How does it wreck communication? Pronouns exist for a reason.
Anyway I am most averse to real names. Like I would feel more comfortable having a sort of title-like name or the name of an object or animal. But still I don't feel like any name belongs to me... It's weird. |

saying someone's first, middle and last name before saying "you're a ______" sounds a lot more serious

You can't use pronouns if you're talking to two people/groups at once.
And especially not from a distance.

| Yeah you can. You can tell who someone is specifically talking about through context and body language. As for talking in third person while not being in that person's vicinity, that one could be a little less clear. I suppose I would rather be called a name of an object, animal, or adjective. Does that make any sense? I still feel like... No name belongs to me. I don't know how to describe the feeling. |

Well that wasn't funny. Try to come up with something more creative and not a dead meme. |

| Great. We got a half-witted folk in here who thinks the only pronouns are third person singular pronouns. |
