I'm not struggling with gender identity, but I've always kinda wanted to change my name to a more gender-neutral name, and I don't really know why. It may be partly because I don't really like my name. I don't particularly hate it, but I don't like it either. I don't feel like it fits me. Anyone else like this?
There are many people like you. It really it up to you, you can do as you feel. All I can say is make sure that you really want that name. Use it as a nickname for about a year before you change it, though. I know for myself, it was fairly hard to find a name that suited me well.
Hmm, for me I feel the same as you do. I don't particularly like my name-both first and last. Both are the most common in my country. It's kinda like how common John Smith is. Anyway, as CyanChachki said, using a nickname for some time before officially changing your name is a good idea. It also makes you used to being called that, and to check if it suits you fine. Good luck with choosing a name, too!
