Frank (he/him)If you can respect and use a Pope's chosen name, you can respect and use a #trans or #nonbinary person's chosen name and pronouns.
Straight Edger
Sune AukenTrue. Neither is a problem.
Vincent Tunru@ADignorantium Leo XIV (he/him/his)
Alexandre Klein@VincentTunru @ADignorantium I thought his Holiness' preferred pronouns are his Holiness/his Holiness/his Holiness'…
Regine@ADignorantium People who marry also change their names (or chose not to) ... it just happens and I am sure AI performs better with name changes than their brogrammers ;-)
Thomas A. Frederiksen@ADignorantium @dexter I definitely can and will do both, but I’m sorely tempted to refer to the pontiff as “Pope Bob” nonetheless.
Reay@ADignorantium @rozcakj Agreed.
Also, is Bono his original name?
Is Sting his original name?
Is Lady Gaga her original name?
Jack Black?
David Bowie?
Prince?
Arnold Schwarzenegger?
Jo Koy?
Jim Jefferies?
No?
But people have no problem calling them by their chosen names?
Then those people have zero to complain about with trans names.
