        Even for gender cishet people a Dylan, Casey or Sam might be a “he/him” or “she/her” and its just not obvious from the name.

          So?

          Does that mean we all have to waste our time with pronouns?

          I can think of only one time I thought a female was a male from their name. It was not a problem. The name was Noel

          Seems like the name argument is no argument at all

            we, our, and I are all pronouns. Yes, we pretty much need to use pronouns.
