#enber

I would like to suggest the adoption of the term Enber as the Non-Binary word for Son/Daughter.

I do not know of any good words for the Enbie version of Son/Daughter. There is offspring, kid and child but they just dont really sit right.

Enber is a combination of the word Enbie and the word Ember. An Ember is the beginning of a fire, a baby fire if you will, and I feel that this is a good word to describe offspring.

I also think that Enber is just a fun word to say. Enber Enber Enber...

I don't know what the plural of Enber should be. Seeing as the plural of Ember is Embers the plural of Enber should probably be Enbers. I definitely think that the Enben community can think of a better plural though.

As a recently out nonbinary person, I've been trying to come up with a way for my mom to introduce me that isn't son/daughter. Lots of brief googling yielded "child" as the generally accepted alternative. This did not satisfy me.

I propose a new word. Just for us. Enber (or NBer or whatever variation/pronounciation suits you). Brief googling tells me this word does not currently exist in the English language as far as I can tell. However, I don't want to start using a word that actually has some other meaning I'm not aware of.

Come ask us stuff!!!
