How does Xylene sound? Just kidding, I already have nice backup name. But a cool name still
Did I already say it’s aromatic?
Has to be a transition element.
My first reaction to this meme was to scoff, I know many non-binary people and none of them have remotely chemistry-inspired names.
Then I realized my name is literally an element (with the suffix removed)...
But to be fair there are many who are based on mythology themselves: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_element_name_etymologies#Named_after_mythological_entities and some are so short that they have collisions
There are definitely unisex names hidden in it, like Samar, Bar, Beryl. And other names like Selen, Rad, Franc
Thorium is a family name, thank you.
~~Are you talking about the asteroid family?~~ No, I typoed, it’s Thronium
A smart name would be Einsteinium.
Iridium is named after Iris, the personification of the rainbow
Or the personification of an arperture, which could indicate a closed mind 🤔
Well, one that can open and close on demand, I guess 😁
wait a minute
Hi, Cs

Try the spice rack
Perhaps a nice tea or pipe-weed

n0xy learns you can have multiple names, middle names even.

NaCl
Don't be salty
Oh oh, pick a Post-Transition Metal like Gallium. Gal, who is Post-Transition and into metal.
Took me half a day to get it, lmao
Damn, that IS a cool name.
Call.me phosgene
First thing I saw was TiZr.
Then there is the English taking blue and making it a woman's name. Same for many other common colors. I get that flowers are often used for woman's names and give their name to a color, too. But still.
yes, but counter argument: the novel "the free peoples village" has a transmasc nonbinary charecter called red
(really interesting novel btw... idk entirely how to feel about it. i would recommend it, but it also gets really sad towards the end)
Grew up in a neighborhood with twins, I didn't really know them, just had met them a few times. Boy and girl, Violet (girl) and Azure (boy). Boy's name might have been Azul, one or the other.
