You can just change your name to something that is easier for you to say. Stuttering is like a game and the prize is fluency. You are in control of the game. Change the game mode to easy. I find ways to make it easier for me to talk all the time and i stick with it. It sounds weird, but its easier for me; i have better fluency better confidence when speaking. Who cares if i say stuff a little odd sometimes? Like my birth year is 1973, i can never say “seventy three”.i just say “seven three” and it works, people understand what I'm getting at. If anyone asks, i tell them the truth, i have a slight stutter and have a wicked time saying those numbers together. And they are 100% oh ok cool. Don't let it take control of you
