To be honest having a person's name be the same as their nominative case pronoun is kind of cool from a whole different perspective than you normally get to see. By doing this experiment I get to see how bad of an idea it is to do that. So far the xe/xer pronouns don't seem to stick as well, but it looks cool so I'm gonna keep up the experiment.

I'm also quite seriously an ordained minister.

The whole point of a person's name is to sufficiently differentiate them from the other persons. Using pronoun as name (or vice versa) just totally negates this goal.

    To be fair, the name came first. Then I found out it conflicted with people's pronouns and I sat on the idea for a while. Now I'm throwing science at the wall to see what sticks, and this is a fairly amusing experiment. So I'm gonna keep it going.
