TopicIs it disrespectful to transgenders to say you have a deadname and aren't trans?

I've never seen or heard a similar situation but on first impression it doesn't seem disrespectful to me. Sometimes people change their name due to trauma, or wanting to avoid somebody googling their name and discovering that they were kidnapped as a five year old or some shit. I would probably call those deadnames

What is definitely disrespectful, however, is to use "transgender" as a noun and as a plural noun it sounds even worse to me (though arbitrarily so)
