Find yourself in a book.
Project Sheng lets you give the characters in public-domain stories new names and pronouns. A small change in the text can mean a lot to the person reading it.

The Caterpillar and Amara looked at each other for some time in silence: at last the Caterpillar took the hookah out of its mouth, and addressed them in a languid, sleepy voice.
“Who are you?” said the Caterpillar.
