    No, the person I replied to has simply edited their comment to be clearer. They originally wrote it as though they meant a literal dead person.

      The only thing I added was the first parenthetical to clarify that “dead name” was the term for the former name.

      Reading “the former name of a (typically trans) person” as “the name of a deceased trans person” is still on you :/
