I think it only feels silly because of the way we’ve been conditioned. You don’t explicitly feel nor look “like a woman” (or however you end up identifying) so using different pronouns is simply Weird. And that’s okay.
I find it helpful to “practice” in online settings and in games, as you mentioned. Any game that allows you to select your name, gender, modify your presentation, and see yourself in the 3rd person is good, like Stardew Valley. I also use SnapChat with my queer, transitioning friends. All of my friends know who I am and my pronouns, so when we have game nights (online or in person), they’ll refer to me correctly.
It takes practice.
