Birthday for your own character

I think the farmer should be assigned a random date as their birthday after character creation. I like the idea that villagers over a certain heart level might give you a gift on that day. Not sure how they would determine what the farmer likes or loves though.
Maybe it could be based on your two highest or most used skills? So if you fish a lot, you might get special bait or a lure. If you farm the most, you might get seeds or soil/fertilizer. If you mine the most, you might get a metal bar or stack of coal. That kind of thing.
Edit: And whichever parent writes to you in the early game should always send you a letter on that day, wishing you a happy birthday and maybe including a cake or something.

Rather than being random, it should be part of character creation and allowed to change in the Wizard's Tower.
Of course, one will still have just one birthday per year so changing the birthday after having already a birthday won't do anything until the next year.
It could be two UI elements below the pant color sliders: one for the seasons, and one for the days.

May I ask, what's the reason and relevance for the "Birthday change"?

For the same reasons you can customize other features of the character: whatever the player may need it for. For example, you could invite someone to play with you in multiplayer and want to change the birthdays so they coincide on the same day, or don't if they do.

Imagine every day you change your birth day to troll your friend. like in everyday
"hey today my birthday give me diamond"

Like I said in my first post, you would still have only one birthday a year. The event won't reset by changing the day, but by going from Winter 28 to Spring 1.
