It is Kai vs. Ash in the next round for the 'World's Most Transgender Name.'
Keiles first started the account to post about trans history as he did research for his forthcoming book on nonbinary identity. He noticed the plethora of memes and other content poking fun at the range of “trans names” and wanted to create a fun competition to see whom the trans internet might crown number one.“We had sort of zany Thomas Pynchon kinds of names, then you have people naming themselves animals, and then you have a category that’s sort of like Victorian orphan names,” Keiles said.
Keiles initially thought the contest, which involves a sports-like bracket system and six rounds of voting, would get a few hundred responses. He was shocked by how quickly the competition spread among trans Instagram users. Keiles said that the creative process of naming oneself has been a rich part of trans culture throughout history, and something that exists outside of broader cisgender society and politics.
