Multiple Pronoun Sets

Some people use multiple sets of pronouns, (such as myself, i use they/them, he/him, xey/xem, it/its and sometimes raccoon/raccoons) most of the time because they cant express their identity with just one set of pronouns. If someone uses multiple pronoun sets they can place it like this:
Alec: Hey, what are your pronouns?
Egg: Oh, I use multiple pronoun sets- they/he/xey/it/raccoon. Thanks for asking!
Alec: Ok ill use those pronouns from now on!

-------------------

Tommie: Hey, have you talked to Egg recently?
Alec: Yes! Their so funny. I would love to talk to him again soon.
Tommie: Xeir having a party tonight and it wanted you to come.
Alec: Of course ill come, raccoons the best

Neo-pronoun

Neo pronouns

Neo pronouns are a neologism pronoun that differ from traditional English pronouns: he, she, they, I, you, and one. Neo pronouns can be traced back into mid-17th century, having been documented in George Fox’s 1660 book stating,

“for using those words to some proud men, who would say, 'What! You ill-bred clown, do you Thou me?'"

Other neo-pronouns such as Thon caught on for a short while from late 1800’s to early 1900’s, recorded in “Funk and Wagnalls, Supplement to A Standard Dictionary of the English Language, 1903”

thon. Pronoun of the 3rd person, common gender, meaning “that one, he she, or it”: a neoterism proposed by Charles Crozat Converse, and apparently complying with the neoteristic canons, since it supplies an antecedent blank, obeys a simple and obvious analogy, and is euphonious.

Neo-pronouns have since died down in usage but have resurged in mid 2010’s by Non-Binary individuals (people who identify outside of the gender binary) who expressing comfort in being referred to types of neo-pronouns.
