Mirrorpronominal or Mirrored Pronouns or Mirror Pronouns, refers to an individual who identifies with the pronouns of the individual referring to them and is under the mutopronominal umbrella. An individual with mirrored pronouns has different pronoun sets for each individual. Those with mirrored pronouns may strictly use them, or they may use other types of pronouns alongside mirrored pronouns.

For example, Noah is mirrorpronominal, and Noah has three friends (Letters are used to represent each friend).

A uses he/him and they/them, and so Noah will use he/him and they/them with that individual when Noah is referred to.

B uses she/her, and so Noah will use she/her with that individual when Noah is referred to.

C uses ze/zem, Noah will use ze/zem with that individual when Noah is referred to.

When it comes to individuals who have multiple pronoun sets, others use whichever pronouns they're currently using for themselves by default, unless it is specified to do otherwise. However, there are subsets of mirrored pronouns that help distinguish this experience:

• Clear mirroring refers to those that use whatever pronouns the person is using for themself currently.
• Foggy mirroring refers to those who are fine with others using any of their pronouns.

History

The term Mirrored Pronouns was coined by Tumblr user Kenochoric on March 19th, 2021, alongside the concept of foggy and clear mirroring. The flag, meanwhile, was made by Tumblr user everypronoun on August 16th, 2021.

Mirrorpronominal, an alternate term that is meant to resemble other pronominal terms, was created by Tumblr user mygenderisamess on July 7th, 2021. The flag was created at the same time.
