New guy at work has the same name as me and immediately has become the default version of said name. AIO? I’m sure in reality I am overreacting - it’s such a small petty thing but it’s genuinely making me want to quit. I’ve worked at a company I love that has a fairly small management team for almost 15 years now. Last month we had a new hire come in for an adjacent manager role. Very friendly, lovely chap who has fit in right away. The issue is we share the same name. It’s a fairly common name like ‘Matt’ for example. The problem is neither of us are ‘Matthew’ and both go by ‘Matt’. In all the time I’ve been here there’s only ever been one other Matt who went by ‘Matty’ so it wasn’t ever an issue. The problem is I’ve almost immediately become de facto ‘Matt C’ or ‘Matt from X department’ whereas new guy seemingly is just ‘Matt’ for everyone else already. We share a front desk and the amount of emails now start with “hi matt” but not for me. Or a call comes in “can I speak to Matt - speaking - oh you must be after the new one”. What sucks most is we had a rota last week and I had my full name and surname printed to clarify who I was. I know in the grand scheme of things it’s really not that big a deal but honestly it’s grating me no end. To have worked here for so long and so quickly been relegated to number 2 Matt amongst everyone I’ve known and worked with for years has honestly killed any motivation I have and makes me want to quit as i just feel invisible. Do I bother tackling this and create a stink? Should I just accept my fate and ‘man up’? Or walk away and find a more enlightened land? Edit - appreciate the responses everyone. Think it’s right down the line between a get over it and understanding a sucky situation. Enough validation though that I actually just grabbed 5 mins to have a quiet word with the boss about it. To be fair to them they were very understanding. I’m rather embarrassed tbh but they are gonna have a subtle word with some of the management and see if they can find a reasonable solution. At first they were a little bemused but we do have one quite eccentric (brilliant but very sensitive) coworker who’s been here around the same time I have and I just ended up saying ‘I know it’s a bit crazy but could you imagine how X would react if they became X2 all of a sudden’ and it seems that worked! So will see what happens going forward. Sucks it didn’t happen organically but alas! Reddit consensus: MIXED (no clear verdict) What do you think?

ज्योति नाम की लड़की कैसी होती है ज्योति नाम का अर्थ “ज्योति” नाम संस्कृत भाषा से लिया गया है, जिसका अर्थ “रोशनी” या “प्रकाश” होता है। यह नाम भारतीय संस्कृति में एक महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका निभाता है, क्योंकि यह ज्ञान, सुख और शांति की प्रतीक है। ज्योति का प्रतीकात्मक अर्थ इस बात को दर्शाता है कि यह नाम उसके धारक को जीवन में उम्मीद और प्रेरणा प्रदान करता है। ज्योति नाम की लड़कियाँ प्रायः अपने आस-पास के लोगों के लिए प्रेरणा स्रोत बन जाती… ज्योति नाम की लड़की कैसी होती है

im chabging my name to Turnip —pleade RESPECT that.

Does anyone remember that one Enhablr who used to leave notes praising herself or attacking herself for attention? (Or maybe I’m remembering it wrong 😭 I’ve honestly forgotten most of the drama.) From what I remember, there were also rumors about her spreading lies and gaining sympathy from people. Again, I could be wrong, LMAO—I don’t remember the details clearly anymore. She supposedly made multiple accounts to praise herself, and then there was an expose page where she called out or backstabbed other writers. she was pretty well-known back then and had a lot of people around her. I used to read her work all the time. Sometimes I wonder where she is now and if she’s still lurking around here somewhere haha. Just a random thought/rant ༎ຶ‿༎ຶ

naming my kid after my ex so his soul gets confused and he dies

Thought for the day 06.06.2026 If you had to change your name, what would your new name be? I don’t think I’d want to change my name to be honest . It’s a little different Carolyn .. with a yn not Caroline ! I was in fact named after the pirate radio station radio Caroline which was very big in the UK when I was born almost 60 years ago but mum decided Caroline was “too common” so I became Carolyn . It’s a nice name elegant… Thought for the day 06.06.2026

AIO my best friend keeps misgendering me and it makes me upset Hi, I’ll try to make this as short as I can. I’m 23 years old, I’ve been out to my friends and stuff as non binary for more than 8 years and I’ve changed my name to a unisex name. I met my best friend a couple of years ago, obviously he met me as the name I have now and as non binary with he/him pronouns like I always had. I told him about my gender and stuff from the very start (he asked, I usually never actually talk about anything like that unless someone asks me) and it was all good. The past year he wanted to know my dead name, so I told him because why not. He now uses only my dead name and he doesn’t call me with my actual name and he uses she/her pronouns on me. He also makes fun on whoever uses he/him pronouns on me (I look and dress like a boy). I’m so confused with this behaviour. I’ve told him a couple of times to stop, sometimes he kinda apologises and other times he tries to defend himself. I normally wouldn’t care, but he’s my friend and he’s important to me, so that bothers me and I wish he would stop. I would accept this behaviour from anyone, but not from my friends. I feel weird and genuinely I don’t know what to do. Sometimes I feel like it’s not that big of a deal, but he does it repeatedly and it gets awkward. I just wish he would stop and I don’t understand why he doesn’t stop since I’ve asked me multiple times to not do that. He met me as me, he met me with my name and with my pronouns, so why suddenly change? Reddit consensus: NOT OVERREACTING (NOR) (97% confidence) Top comment: “if they are misgendering you, they are not your friend. NOR.” Notable comment: “NOR. I am someone who has very little attachment to my gender at this point. It means so little to me. But. The people who matter to me care about how they’re addressed, so I respect that. They want to feel like their efforts to live their truth are being perceived so I support it in normal, casual ways. When people care about you in a mature and meaningful way, they don’t just consider what they want, they consider what is best for the person they care about. Either your best friend’s values are fucked, or he cares more about his preferences than validating your identity. If he is truly your best friend, it might be worth sitting down one more time to explain why this matters, but you don’t owe him that. If he continues to disrespect you, focus on only what you can control (your participation in the friendship, for example) as opposed to his behaviors because no amount of pointing it out will deter someone who is doing exactly what they want to be doing. If you want my two cents about why he’s doing this, my money is on him being interested in you and seeing his current actions as putting you back into a dating eligible box. That was by far the most common cause of people not respecting my autonomy or identity when I was your age. I hope things in your life are otherwise going well and that you have a strong support system. You deserve friends that care.” Do you agree with Reddit’s consensus?

much fuss is made about the american English usage of “friend” being too casual but I think it’s just a commonplace linguistic feature of “vague but not first order relation to me, ranging neutral to positive,” the way auntie and uncle and cousin function in a lot of cultures and languages, and many other languages even use friend in similar or adjacent ways (is anyone making fuss about صاحبتي ？ i know there’s minimal fuss around 姐).
