Nomifluid also known as Namefluid or Abronominal is a term describing an individual whose name is fluid and changes day-to-day or often. This is similar to genderfluid, but instead of their gender it is their name that is fluid.[1]
- A Nomifluid individual can have any gender and they do not have to be genderfluid. If they are genderfluid then their changing name may be linked to the gender they experience at that moment, but it may not be linked.
- One who is Nomifluid may feel that their name is just fluid, in regard or regardless of gender. For instance, one day they use the name- Harris, then on Friday they may use the name River.
- Them being Nomifluid might be due to their gender. For example, one who feels as if one day they are a Demigirl and so may use the name- Morgan-, but another day may feel as if they are more Libragender and so may use the name River. Though it is important to note that the name doesn't have to line up with their gender.
- They may also be Nomifluid if they feel their preference changing, this may or may not be linked with Nomiflux, they may feel that the name they have, for instance, Morgan, doesn't work for them at that moment, or doesn't work at all and so use another name, for instance, River.
