I've definitely used my work badge before or anything my name is on For events or something I signed up for, I'll have my ID out to show even if I don't really need it Usually gets me by I've been fortunate to have my husband step in sometimes to introduce the both of us when we're somewhere He knows I struggle w my name and sometimes I just don't feel like trying 😞 I also find if someone says my name first, I can usually follow up being like "Yeah, I'm Meagan" Starting with "I'm" also helps but I also attribute that to my name beginning with an M On a good day, I just tack it onto that sound Overall, my name is something I've accepted as a forever block spot ironically I'm still working on accepting the rest of them, but this one definitely comes up the most
