Hello all! This is my first post here., so I hope this is the right place, but I couldn't find this being answered anywhere else. If this has been answered before, forgive me!
So, my husband and I are both transgender, but have yet to legally change our names. We are getting annual passes soon, and it wouldn't bother me so much to have my legal name on my pass, except that CMs refer to you by name every chance they get! This would normally be lovely, but of course, other trans people know all too well being deadnamed is uncomfortable, aggravating and can be just dangerous!
I tried to do a little research and saw one post from a couple years ago where someone said they were able to have their pass read Preferred Name, Deadname, Last Name, and the name came up on the screen Preferred name last name, but then they said the following year they weren't allowed to do that again? I literally couldn't find any other info!
I just can't imagine they don't have some kind of option, but please let me know your experience! I appreciate it!
