Coming out is scary
Transition without saying anything and just gradually start telling people to call you by your new name:
Just gaslight everyone.
“What do you mean? (New Name) is what I’ve gone by my whole life. You must be crazy or something.”
Bonus points if you have a unisex name and don’t even change it.
See, I do, but I still want to change it.
At first I was like, “I sure got lucky with the only neutral name of the three.” But now I have a chosen name. (Hardly used, but darn it I think I really like it.)
I wish I had a gender neutral name. My name is about as gendered as it gets. I’ve thought of a couple of names but I dunno why, it feels weird naming myself something.

I am tempted to just gaslight everyone around me once I get the girl meds - “what do you mean? I’ve had boobs since I was a teenager, stop being crazy”

Why come out when you can gaslight?
They’ll figure it out eventually. Worked for me 😁
