Your own name Do you ever feel as if pronouncing your own name has an increased rate of making you stutter? I'm watching this guy on YouTube named Timmy's Takeout, and he seemingly stutters when he has to say his name outloud. And I also have a beloved awesome coworkers who has a stutter, and he stutters a lot specifically when he has to say his name. Does anyone else feel like they are very likely to stutter when they say their name outloud to someone else, especially when talkingto someone they are strangers with/unfamiliar with?
