Family and chosen names

Question

I’ve been out to my friends for a while now and one of my parents but recently I’ve come out to my extended family as well. I’m not very close to my aunts, uncles, cousins, etc but I am quite close to my parents and lately they’ve been calling my by my chosen name (which I genuinely appreciate) however when they call me it, it feels kinda odd? Just curious if anyone else felt this way when they came out and people started to call them their chosen name.
