Can you help me tryout a name? I’m Vibia Valentine, She/They. Thanks.
That name sounds like a stage name. You might want to consider something with a little less illiteration. And maybe I’m out of touch but a more typical first name maybe? “Vibia” sounds like a name that would have gotten made fun of in school when I was a kid. A lot. I tend to view names through that lens; even though I was bullied for other reasons. So while obviously you’re not a kid in school, if you think about the life trajectory of somebody with a more unorthodox name, it might not be the best choice for you.
Ultimately though, it’s your life, do what you want. My opinion is just my opinion and my suggestion is only that; a suggestion from some random guy on the internet.
I dont have a problem with it sounding like artistic or a stage name. In fact would be amazing to sign the things I write with that name. So it can be my chosen and artistic name.
And im 25 so lucky for me cant be bullied in school lol.
And typical names are boring. Good luck im not having kids so I dont get to name them.
TBH, it makes me think of the word “labia” but I’m probably in the minority on that. It’s a perfectly fine name otherwise.
You aren’t alone… vibrator labia vibes for sure.
One the one hand, I don’t care, pick a name you like. On the other hand, be aware.
Yes, vibia is definitely the funny-bone of the female pelvis
Maybe I’m broken too, but that’s what my brain read at first and was super confused.
That said if you like the name, you should go for it. Do what makes you happy and feel right.
I really like the first name! It’s cute, it intuitively feels like a name while still being unorthodox and eye-catching, plus it reads Hispanic to me.
I will admit I kinda agree with another commenter that the alliteration gives off stage name vibes (Vibia Valentine would be a pretty good drag name), but if you vibe with that, you do you, Vibia! :)
Vibia? That’s a pretty name. Does it come from somewhere special or do you just like the sound of it?
It is the first name of Vibia Perpetua, a pre catholic saint and martyr who is one of the “They were Roommates” historical figures. https://amedievalwomanscompanion.com/perpetua/
She is considered a saint of the sapphics and trans people, because she saw herself as a man in a dream.
BTW I’m not religious at all, it sounds great, starts with a V and the story is cool.
Your name is so cool Vibia! I love the backstory, makes it even cooler. Btw do you prefer to be referred to by both your names or is Valentine your middle name?
Valentine is like my main thing, you know? My dead name is a hispanization of Valentine or Valentinus. I’m really attached to it. I’m still not sure if I want Valentine as a middle or Last Name. If I get some other Lastname, maybe it would be Lovelace. Or if I marry my BF (In my country we can’t get married, so that most be done in another country), I would get his last name.
So, in short, I like how Vibia sounds with Valentine and the story is cool, and I like having it as a first name.
How you doin V2?
(That’s how I’d use it typing unless requested otherwise… Plus I kind of like it)
Okay, I’m pulling a dumb, is it pronounced vib-ia or vibe-ia? Either way, solid name
Im Hispanic so for me it sounds Vib-ia.
vib-IA? like “Maria”
or
VIB-ia like “Lydia”
The second one. Truly explaining phonetics in english is hard.
Awesome! I dig the name and really love the backstory you shared in another comment. Go live your best life!
TYSM 🥰
Vibe-ia, like lay-bia?
I read through it fast and thought I read
Vaseline Valentine
lol
Hey Vibia, you have a pretty name (tho autocorrect thinks it’s Bianca or Vivian). FYI, if you have another name to try out, [email protected] could be a good place for that. There’s sadly no !trans_tryouts yet.

Thanks.
Good afternoon miss Vibia!
☺️
I wanna pinch those cute cheeks <3
🥰
Oh my gosh, hi Vibia. How have you been?
I’m doing great! Thanks
hi Vibia!
the name is super cute and kinda unique, like you!
Awww so sweet, thanks!
<3
Welp it’s Vibia nice to meet you Vibia
I keep wanting to add an N in there and make it “Vibina” when I try and say it out loud. 😖
Would it be pronounced “vee-bee-uh” or “vye-bee-uh?”
I thought Vibia Valentine was breaking the rules with their post here, but apparently there’s no “this is a meme sub for memes” rule here, so she’s not going to make the mods sad or anything.
Edit: ooh, found it. Rule 6. (Oops, spoke too soon.)
Btw, Vibia, do you think you can add a transcription as alt text to your image? (If it lets you edit it in.)
