Mostly facts about me

More to come later!

What can you call me? (click to see)

You can refer to me directly by my handles if we're interacting in a space where I'm using them:
Sharkaeopteryx, @Sharksonaplane

If you are crediting me or introducing me in a formal/semi-formal context:
• Use whatever name I signed up for or credited myself as. This is usually Sharyna or Sharyna Tran, but may also be one of my handles, or Shark, or in cases involving my offline business, nothing at all

Nicknames:
• Shark: yes, for all who interact
• Shar: yes, as abbreviation for Sharyna, for all who interact (pronounced like shark w/o the k)
• Sharkae: yes, on Twitch or affiliated spaces like Guilded servers (please do NOT change to this if you usually use one of the above) (preferably pronounced shark-ay but shark-ee is fine too)
• Sharky: not offended but not preferred, please don't start if you weren't already doing it (no it does not count if you "were doing it in your head before you saw this")
• Shary: only if you used to call me this on Sandwich/affiliated spaces, otherwise no thank you
• [my offline name]: do not call me this in online spaces unless I specifically ask you to do so, i.e. if in an environment with people I know offline, you should still call me Shark unless I ask you not to

What are my pronouns? She/her!
