Zombiename
When a trans person for whatever reason has to use a deadname after already having an actual name.
Derived from deadname, zombies being undead creatures who remain "alive" while supposed to be dead.
Reasons are varied but common ones include but are not limited to:
1) Financial inability to transition documentation.
2) Legal issue such as transition not being allowed by law.
3) Semi-closet, when transition has only happened under certain social situations because of safety, employment, or other reasons.
4) Social media companies policies
This list is not exhaustive.
Zombienames are no quite deadnames and thus the person must still be using them in so fashion, even to refer to themselves, for them to be zombiename.
For example, a social media account with a deadname is one that is kept as an archive, a zombiename account either is minimally active or the main account.

Zombieing
It’s where someone you previously dated (and very likely cared for) or were even in a relationship with, ghosted you, only to then resurface some time later, most likely in the form of some sort of social media interaction or an out of the blue text message. Usually the zombieing happens just when you’ve gotten over the hurt of having them ghost you in the first place. Then, all of a sudden, they subtly reappear (I say subtle – it can feel like a slap in the face!) causing more emotional upset.
Zombieing
When you wake up the next morning after smoking a ton of weed and everything is hazey and your head is thinking slower than the world.
zombieing
"Dude, I had to flush three times, and it still zombied at the end!"
"Gross, dude!"
"Yeah. So, you wanna hit this?"

"Zombieing sucks."
