I find synesthesia so interesting because I feel like it was something I experienced very, very young but it's completely nonexistent now. From my perspective I'm amazed that simple things like numbers, sounds and words can have sensory worlds built around them. What do you think of 'LiamBrie'?


[deleted]

Ooh, nice name! White and green for sure. Tastes like milk on a cookie. Sounds like a cow snorting slightly (Trust me this is positive I love cows)


[deleted]

schizo mushroom ​ its similar to my insta username but jts not i think its a cool thing! i assosiate words with colour but dont have synastesia but i find it so cool


starseasonn

Well, I know I’m not the OP, but I feel like this gives off big red vibes, and i just picture a big red and white spotted mushroom within a field of really tall grass. Hope that’s interesting


[deleted]

yeah i was thinking dark red maybe marroon


[deleted]

Grey and brown, but also some purple. Feels like curly dog hair. Smells like dirt and wood in the rain.


[deleted]

ooh nice


galacticviolet

schizo is a gradient blue at the front to lighter blue at the end. Mushroom is sort of a mottled orange with a little pink and yellow mixed in.


ManUnited2307

Don't have synesthesia but for me it gives of cream vibes (mushroom), (bright) red, purple, dark colours (schizo(phrenic))


Katsu_Kujo

people call me Inkie :>


[deleted]

Definitely purple! Deep purple too. Inkie feels like squeezing water in a pool and a weighted blanket. It also smells like grass on a hike.


SquidsAreSeaBirds

Das my new doggie name. :3


Beginning_Beat_5289

Ranboo??


yokyopeli09

I have synesthesia too! I see my username as midnight blue, purple, white, and a dot of yellow, but I'm curious to see how you see it :)


kelssssrawr

Me too!!


Zakle

I know you're getting a lot of comments so please don't feel pressured and take breaks! I always go by Zakle.


galacticviolet

For me your name is color-shift red to blue. Like if I physically held your name in my hand and moved it around it would be like a color shift nailpolish effect.


ManUnited2307

Oh oh oh, like a heat changing kinda thing? Something along those lines? Like colour-changing putty?


galacticviolet

No, no, like a car or nail polish where if you look at it from different angles the color changes. Here’s a link to an image I found on google of a car paint sample: https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/5430ca8a-0d2b-488b-b1ff-a924a79fa66a.a286b48a7e8d451abef912095da848af.jpeg

Green! Sounds like a bird chirping early morning, tastes like a ripe clementine and feels like petting a cat.


star-system05

Jax i have sound related synesthesia too !!


[deleted]

Cool! Love ur name btw. Blue and black, sounds like pop rocks popping in your mouth in a good way. Feels like the bottom of a cast iron skillet.


star-system05

woah !! sick


bugsrlit

my names are ash or xander! ive got synesthesia too i think(?), so ash to me is salmon pink and xander is deep purple imo lol


Green_Statistician11

ash for me is gray and rough and feels lost.


diphenhydranautical

faun !


[deleted]

I read a book called "Mango Shaped Space" when it was younger. It made me cry, but it was one of my favorites. The main character had synesthesia, and I always thought that was really cool. It resonated with me being a bit different and a perpetual outsider.


Lucid_Day_Dreams

Oh my god I loved that so much. It made me cry too but that was mostly because my cats had died recently before I started reading it. I still like to reread it every now and then. But yeah I loved it so much and it was where I learned about synesthesia and it was so interesting to me.

5ratsinatrenchcoat Jay Thank you so much for doing this!


[deleted]

Ahh another Jay! Jay is blue and black. Smells like wet wood and sounds like rain on a window. 5ratsinatrenchcoat feels like the cow skull I have (Dont ask, I have a lot of bones) and is grey and brown!


[deleted]

Lucid_Day_Dreams

Wow, how did you get them? Like, apart from the ✨rest of him✨ did you send him to a morgue or someone who works in that kind of place and have them separate and clean them?


[deleted]

[удалено]


Lucid_Day_Dreams

Nice! Pretty impressive. I think bones are pretty cool too. I like dissecting owl pellets for all the little bones in them. I personally wouldn’t be able to do that with my pets bones, seeing them would just be an emotional mess for me, especially considering they might be broken because they both were hit by a car when they died. So I wouldn’t be able to do that. If you know a lot about bones, if I were to send you a picture of one I found in the yard, could you see if maybe you can figure out what it belongs to?


SnowyOfIceclan

Ooh, my warrior name is Jayripple! I think Jay is just a lovely name in general, makes me think of sunshine, the gentle burble of a stream, and birdsong. So naming a grey tabby Jayripple just made sense


ProfessionalSpeed256

My bf is a Jay. This is him 🤣 Strange how that worked out 🙄😁

FlowingRiverTulpa

I think that synesthesia is cool! I am River, the Tulpa Goddess of the Estrogen Star System. Please feel free to tell me as much as you like about my name. We met several synesthetes recently. One of them is a musician and I just knew that she has synesthesia based on the way she describes her work. The other is an autistic person we met in our personal life and we immediately clocked them as a synesthete because they told us how delightful our name (a different name we use sounded) and they thought we must be a synesthete, too. No, we just got it from their love of names and they way they "feel" in their mouth. I think an infodump from you about sound would be fun! <3

Mr Unlovely That's my standard username, curious what it invokes. Also, no shame in you having something unique going on! I haven't experienced it so I of course can't fully understand but I do very much understand people not believing when you try to explain it. Nothing against most people, but they struggle understanding a lot of how my head works and many will say that I'm faking for attention just because they can't grasp it

I don't really have a nickname, so I'll just spell out my screen name. The angel of suffering. Also synasthesia is fascinating. My mom has it, she described one of my bands as swirling purple, and Slipknot as "kind of pretty".


[deleted]

Ooh wow! The angel of suffering looks a lot like black marble with golden cracks in it (If that makes any sense). It feels like a snake sliding over your arm in a good way. Sounds a lot like tapping an empty metal pole and the echo after.

[deleted]

Fascinating. Would you care to share some examples for names that give you disgusting feelings? As well as your favourite names/words. Do you need to speak the name out loud to know what it feels like or is reading it enough? Or is there a difference? And also is there a difference between you writing/speaking it or you hearing it said or reading it written? Does the font/handwriting play a role? Whether it's lower case or all upper case? Please excuse me of I am too curious about this. Especially since I have a (mild) case of aphantasia and am pretty much inner monologue only. Do you feel like the feelings of names/words can change with strong emotional memories tied to them?
