I did that a few times, it was worst when the character name was just a standard name with one letter difference from the player’s real name. I only found out that I had gotten the two confused after I looked more closely at the sheet a week of talking every day.
I am perfectly happy to have it that way - just like OP suggested it’s a nice separation. And while I have nothing against my given name and actually quite like it, Tira is a name I chose for myself.
There’s a few people I know in real life, who I originally met online, and who call me “Chozo” more often than by my real name. Names are weird.
Yeah, same, my d&d group calls me by my first character’s name :)

Same with me, and a few people who call me ‘Tira’
