i am so exactly in the very same boat I was making a list of pros and cons for future project ideas at this moment, I feel so utterly lost

omg walking around pretending to be a dog for the entire childhood team!!!!!

i'm thankful it took me so long to encounter this type of issue, i've always been so very lucky with my clients and creative partners...... i'm hurt that this happened w/ a company that seemed keen to support me and my art

I swear I'm trying my best. I just wanna find something that gives me joy and also doesn't bring with it the frustration of having to correct people all the time..... TT_TT

i honestly don't understand how can people pick a name and stick to it, I feel very outside of the box in this matter specifically, it's been like idk three years now that I've decided to step away from the name Rosie and I still haven't made a decision. I'm sure that's confusing to people too.

i've been thinking a lot about Kroma, but also lots about Rokzi, Rokzi would be cool because it starts with R too so I wouldn't need to change my logo I guess, but Kroma is an objectively simpler, cooler name

i want to keep being roux, specially rouxroux, (roo roo) but unfortunately it might become just a name some closer friends and select people know me by, because I do think using it as a name in brazil will just keep giving me more and more of a headache. :(

(as a very tiny vent too, it makes me a little bit tiny annoyed that people around me kept mispronouncing it for months instead of checking with me if they were saying it correctly, and I do say it very confidently in a manner they could copy the pronounce from me, idk what's up with that, lol)

i love hearing people call me Roux ("roo) and it makes my heart happy and giggly but I don't think it works as my "nametag", as my "brand's name", specially not because I'm looking to do more stuff locally from now on, i know for a fact using "roux" in my brand will give me issues

ye

and she has given me the gift of peace of mind and stability when I was struggling with burnout and she was working at the company basicall for the four years before that. it's time for me to return the favor so im gonna do my very very bestest.
