OCs whose name/pronouns people always get wrong

Posted 5 years, 4 months ago (Edited 5 years, 4 months ago) by fuelli

Show me your characters whose name and/or pronouns people always get always wrong! Because we all know that's the kind of thing that happens, be it on the website itself (esp. forum games), off-site, or even in real-life! Are some characters of yours more prone to this than others, and why/how? And how do you usually reacts when it happens?


Neven Haris Hamill Arcainook

Oh boy my character Neven people pronounce incorrectly, its "Knee-Ven". Its Siberian for everlasting flower. Another would be my character Cosimia Rein, her name is pronounced like "Kozz- ie -Mah" "re-en". This Greek name meaning is "Of the universe."

Kattenkvvaad

basically everyone in this folder often gets referred to with the wrong pronouns.

all of them use they/them pronouns even tho there's a bunch of 'em who look masculine or feminine (or have masculine or feminine names)


I personally don't really mind it tho, sometimes I slip up as well (mainly when it comes to the characters who used to have different pronouns in the past)

♜ Crome DrLeviathan

My own child, they use they/them but I being the bumbling idiot I am sometimes calls them by she/her

 Juni Hahash Caine

Juni is they/them so a lot of the time people skim that over and go for he or she instead (even though they exclusively use they/them) 

Sachihiro "Rōzeki" Yamamoto Ayeaka

did I post here before?

this guy gets called both "sachiro" and "sekiro" frequently ;_;


and of course people misgender his younger sib Izumi a looooooooooooootttttttttt

Laci yanderechips

Back

Laci is somewhat mistaken as non binary, i can see why since she's really androgynous at first look lmao

Lui Fireseed Jingletail

So I came up with his name when I was much younger and didn't know "Lui" was already a sort of name. He's from a different planet with its own language and with the few rules I have I decided that his name was pronounced "Lay". Literally nobody pronounces it correctly until I repeatedly remind them. It's understandable, but it still drives me crazy!
