PLEASE BOOST FOR REACH. Bigender friends: I'm new to the discovery that I'm bigender(trans man, and woman), and I'm wondering how many of you who are also bigender use separate names for your different genders. Do you have different names, or do you use a gender neutral or non-binary name that works across all? #bigender #gender #lgbtqiaplus

  • @aceofcosmicspace@lgbtqia.space I've often tended towards gender neutral names, for the longest time I was known as Lav or Lavender, depending which seemed more accurate that day. Then I just did a swan dive into being just Lav, then Tanek, which has seemed to have stuck.

    @aceofcosmicspace@lgbtqia.space I knew someone who was bigender. Had some feminine mannerisms, but still defaulted to the gender assigned at birth (male in this case) when it came to name and pronouns.

    @aceofcosmicspace@lgbtqia.space I've done some of both. I started using a gender-neutral name and talking about my masculine and feminine aspects using different derivatives of that name; later, when my identity shifted towards a multigender masculine-dominant one, I stopped naming the feminine separately and now mostly use gender-neutral or weakly masculine handles. (I've always used a variety of names, even before I recognized gender as a factor.)

    @aceofcosmicspace@lgbtqia.space well, I just go by Taylor. If you're just talking to me, that is. We also have DID, and usually just go by Emmy no matter who's in front, but that's a whole separate subject. If you feel more comfortable using different names at different times, maybe look into plurality.
