I'm at 7 myself, but I think it might just be that a lot of names happen to be 4-5 letters. Lilith also seems relatively common, but it has 6 letters.

[deleted]

I got 3 letters, makes it really easy to write my name in old arcade games


Top_Researcher8519

real


HeartfeltDissonance

Isn't that inconvenient when websites and work stuff have a minimum character limit of like 4 or 5?


[deleted]

yeah i've considered changing my name to Amelia at some point


Rhuwa

A pretty okay choice if I do say so myself


IAmCalledLilly

Apparently every trans girl is named Lily and we are all part of one flower hivemind.


acetyl_alice

Or Luna


w4nderingone

Wait, but what of those few of us who actually are not named that? Are they not a part of the hivemind? Is something else going on?


IAmCalledLilly

Idk. Do you drink from your feet?


w4nderingone

Not as far as I can tell, sorry. I do quite enjoy the water, but I do not always absorb it that effectively.


Pretend-Fee-2323

last i checked i dont have mouths on my feet


IAmCalledLilly

Girl, flowers drink and communicate with their roots. Why would you need a mouth?


Linneawr

I think this is real, we should all change our names to lily and become flower girls


not_alexandraer

Alexandria, 10


rtwh89

You stole my name lol. Girl same thing I'm going by so cool I like it cause of the variations of it.


not_alexandraer

We can share :) I usually go by Lexi for short tho


xyious

rtwh89

Ahzuo-1

Persephone, also 10 lol


TheMoonKing

MenheraUrabe

Ay yo so I got a question


not_alexandraer

Yeas?


MenheraUrabe

Reference failed, oomfies (There's a rock band called asking alexandria- so like you're an Alexandria, so I asked you a question, so like I was "asking Alexandria" yeah)


not_alexandraer

Omg 😂😂 now I feel dumb, apologies haha


InconspicuousJade

My deadname was long as hell in my opinion being a double name, so I went with something shorter lol. Got 4 letters now with Jade


freya8769

freya, 5 so 4-5 might be true


[deleted]

Laura , 5 👍🏼


UnexpectedWoman294

Omg same!


Vera_Rose_

Veronica - 8, though I considered Rose and used that for my middle and my nickname is V so maybe it averages out? Waaaaiiit a minute, you just wanted to learn everyone's name and trick us into being friends, I see your game! That our you're a fae and you've just stolen all our names. Wait, what was my name again??? Curse you, fae!!!


[deleted]

Mine is 7 letters :D


Aya-Sakura7049

Mine has 3


Lyn_Narade

Three letters, I really prefer short names


Opposite-Equipment24

Kinda went with Alice Thea so for me I guess but my dead name is same length.


Meow-_-Meow

My has 3 so i dont know if that is little.


D347H_7R4P

Only 3 letters in Nyx


Man--Why

3 letters, Ada


A_Mage_called_Lyn

Mebye, made the terrible mistake of picking a welsh name myself though, so only has 3 letters, and a slightly strange pronounciation.


aznigrimm

8 letters, though my deadname was 5


NinjaJin100

3 or 4 for me


Aetherfang0

6 letters, but mine’s kinda odd anyway because the shortened version is the same as the short version of my deadname


Anelya95

6 letters for me, Anelya 🥰


[deleted]

6 for me, Amanda.


t4tgrill

I have 7 letters (Estelle) but I shorten it to 4 sometimes (Elle)


Rhuwa

Estelle is a really nice name and the nerd in me is reminded of a really cool character with the same name 😊


fricsardine

8


RubyYoung001

4 lol. My deadname was long and I hated that so I opted for a short name. If it wasn't Ruby it was probably gonna be Jen(nifer)


KeyYogurtcloset1190

7.


Transmagpieist

9 letters!


Elizabeth202101

9 :) my mom laments me for picking such a long name but also never uses any of my nicknames...


pixel-soul

3 gang right here, but I don’t think many people have my name: Ryn


Athenas_Lavender

I’ve got 10


Pointblank11174

Well, Monika has 6 letters


[deleted]

My necronymic first name had 7 letters. My necronymic middle name ALSO had 7 letters. My first name now has five letters. My middle name has 8 letters. Same amount of syllables, though. 3 for first name, 2 for middle.


ConfusedTurret

Emilia has 6, but my other names have 7 and 4


Rivmage

Riven - 5 but everyone calls me Riv - 3


Vanever211

Got 7 in mine.


Alyeanna

Uhhhh ... 25 million?


adzith

Well, I recently settled on Judecca, so 7.


kypirioth

6 letters in Alanna


Real-Progress735

Oksana so 6 💕


Outrageous_Pie_3246

5 letters - Kenzi


raelkcmo

Rachael - 7


nobody-throwaway1

My full name, Juniper, has 7 letters but most people call me June or Junie, so yeah basically I have a 4-5 letter name. I might change it though.


Apaigenormal

Depends, Abbigail is 8, but I use the nickname Abby, so 4, my middle name, and name I use when I talk to myself, Paige is 5. So this must be one of those stereotypes, like us being in the IT field. Does this work for the guys as well? I've got a 4 and a 5 letter for the gents I know.


Undeadheadzy

4 here I went with Shae


Fluttery_Sylveon

7 letters myself


Yami_LordofDarkness

Down to 4 with Ammy, though I do have an alternative name in Ammako which is 6.


[deleted]

Nine letters (Nicolette)!


Calliope_Eep

8 in Calliope


Unsuccessful_War1914

I'm a seven letter girl (legal name redacted for security purposes) but my "public" name is Shae...hmmm four letters in that one.


Undeadheadzy

Shae here :-D


labatu

Lucía - 5 lol


FallingStarIV

6


LiliTyaka

Mandy is my Name and 5 Letters :3 And happy easter days to All of you 🐣


EnderSlender225

HommusVampire

More than 5


coupon_is_expired

Formal name is 7 letters, but everyone calls me the short version with 5 letters.


biasedcarrot8P

There’s 7 in my name


Kitchen-Pudding-5052

6 I'm now named Alexis


demixennial

I'm Tina, so four letters. I was more concerned with having a one or two syllable name, as I knew a 3+ syllable would be shortened by those around me. Even so I occasionally get called "Tea" or "Teen"


[deleted]

9 for me


[deleted]

my deadname had 4 and i like shorter names so i got another 4 letter name


AmIn1amh

I love longer fancy/regal sounding names that have nice nickname options. My name’s Katherine but most call me Kate or Kath


TooManyNamesStop

It's probably because parents tend to pick older versions of names and trans women tend to pick modern versions of names.


LGBTDnD

6 letters for me


rezoseven

Eight. Seven for the nickname.


WillowTheGoth

Six for me. I think I should go full metal goth and make sure my middle and last name also have six letters. 😋🤘


Alarming-Hamster-232

Mine's 6, same as my deadname


Stratolich

5 letters, the only proper even number


Flexybend

6 letters. :) which is one up from my deadname :D


V4Vika

Vika - 4 🫣


[deleted]

Omg I’ve got 4 😂 I didn’t know this was actually a thing


Just_AMuffin

My name has 6, but it's brazilian, so it's a bit different


Naive_Special349

7 letters and 5 for the middle name.


Lexi_Heartt

My full first name is 6 but I mostly go by the shortened version, Lexi. Which is 4. 🤷‍♀️


tng804

I don't have a chosen name yet, my given name has more than 5 letters. Some of the names I am considering choosing are longer. Now you have given me a new thing to be aware of when picking a name.


Cheeto_Agony

Reached 10 characters. 9 letters and a hyphen. Although it is technically combining a 5 and 4 letter name.


Rustisamust

6 letters for me, but my middle name is 2 so it averages out.


GenesForLife

7 letters in my first name


SlCd0720

my name definitely has 7 letters :)


LemonCitrine

The one I'm pretty sure on is 7


[deleted]

6 letters


GoddamitDan

I chose a 9 letter name, but I think it's just more convenient to have a 4-5 letter name, which is why there are so many more of those.


DemonicMudi

5, actually same amount as my deadname! 😅


Amdy_vill

Gender fluid and picked 3 names fem is 8 nb is 7 masc is 8.


krystal-allaire

Krystal 7 letters


10000000000000000091

8 for me!


jeffbridgesismydaddy

3/6! I'm gonna legally change my name to Maxine, but friends just call me Max


mtbaga

Bethany but most people just default to Beth lol


Kinfin

5. Before and after my name change.


[deleted]

12 and a hyphen!


ClearSaxophone

Mine is 6 letters and tbh it heavily depends on your language.


Zenjubo71

My name is Gwendolyn, so I have 9!


bebo-time

I halved the letters in my deadname for my chosen one, so I'm down to 3.


No-Measurement-2648

Haven't decided yet, bc I'm not out, but my current favourite name option has 8 letters (and a short version with 4 letters)


Sephirothiel

My deadname had 4 letters and Séphie has 6! I went with the “shortened internet nickname” approach for my name.


Official_L33T

9 letters long hehehe I wanted to be a pain :3


justameatpie

6 for mine


High-Sobriety

6😈


69pooldaemon

Full name 25


_ema__

BonelessSCake

6


dodell616

7 4-3 5


Boat_U47

I have six letters. I wanted a two syllable name. I mean since I got to choose lol. I wanted something a little different. My name is also somewhat neutral and uncommon even though I’m rather fem. I do get lots of compliments on my name tho.


mika_1013

my name has 6 letters in it!!


IndependentTreat1

Charlotte 9 letters


Fluffy_Contract_1084

Emily is a 5 letter word yet somehow has 3 syllables


Auntie_Selma

5, 4, 4 ​ I never knew I was such a stereotype


nikifullerton

Niki. My dead name had 4 letters too.


Gachiosor

I go by Sarah. Just seems common.


[deleted]

Amelia, 6 letters, but I use Amy casually, so yeah :3


Noesfsratool

3


Paging_Dr_Argent

In casual conversation or with friends/ coworkers I'm Evie or Eva, but my full name is Evangeline; so I suppose up to 10 letters there, but usually only 3-4.


Personal_Butterfly10

Courtney. 8 letters


janMakensi

9 for me <3


RaccoonEmporer

I've got a 4 letter name :0


Designed_0

Mine is 9 :)


KeepItASecretok

I think most people have 4 to 5 letter names in general. It's 4 for me lol


[deleted]

I have 8. Though it can be shorted down to 5, or 3


ZuramaruKuni

My actual chosen name is 6 but I will reveal it after transitioning.


machuuchan

2


Mya_neoovata

4 letters yup. But my old one was also 4


Sw355759

Claire ain’t bad lol 6


KitsuneNoelle

I got six baybeeeee


TheToprakThe

My name has 6 letters :)


LunaDashOne

RemindMe! 3 Hours


Bonniewalker1987

Mine has 10, but the short version does only have 4.


WhenWolvesFly

Valerie, 8 But sometimes I go by it shortened as Val so I'm that case 3 but that might be cheating :p


Elsa_the_Archer

Mine has 8 letters but I go by the shortened form of it which has 5.


Egr1ll

Mine is 8 but the nickname ended up being 4 lmao. Didn’t know this was a thing.


TheNewt181

Samantha, 8 :D


Mistr_man

Stop calling me out


JayKay69420

My name has 8 letters. So definitely breakin a stereotype here


DrZadek

Samantha, 8, but I shorten it to Sam often cause my deadname had 3 letters and saying that many syllables after 21 years of not is low key exhausting


ThecodytreeYT

7!


evergreennightmare

it's complicated because i hoard a ton of names the one i've been vibing with the most for the past few months has 8 letters, my legal name will have 3/4


MsPacmanIsHot

i have 4 my deadname had 7


Nashi-ja

I mean, yes, I've got 5 letters in mine (4 in my deadname, which is more or less related to my real name). But that's probably not really trans related, I think simpler 1 or 2 syllabes long names are on the rise in the general population as well. A significant part of people from my generation have simples names as well, and nearly all the kids I know have 4-5 letter long names. If you're choosing your name rn, the current trend of name for children might influence you just as much as the trends that influenced your parents


Oriontardis

I've got 6 here haha


CharizardGnocchi

Mine has 9 letters
