Context: I am visiting a high school friend. Another friend who we both knew in high school has posted some interesting things recently. This friend has changed their name, but the friend I am visiting is not following them and is not aware of their transition.

How do I bring up this friend without dead naming them?

      Yeah this is the answer. It’s okay to dead name when you’re telling someone of a name change. After that, correct them every time if they don’t use their new name.
