Lo studio indaga l’esperienza di persone transgender e non binarie (TGNB) (13-31 anni) e dei loro genitori rispetto al tema del nome anagrafico ed elettivo. Partecipanti: 16 nuclei familiari (35 interviste; 16 persone TGNB; 19 genitori). Metodologia: analisi tematica delle in-terviste narrative; sia per il deadname che per il nome d’elezione sono stati indagati: processi di scelta e aspetti simbolici della costruzione identitaria; aspetti socio-affettivi; processi di af-fermazione e cambiamento. Risultati: deadname e nome elettivo seguono simili traiettorie di costruzione identitaria, ma il secondo è maggiormente simbolico-descrittivo e aderente alle aspettative; entrambi i nomi racchiudono aspetti affettivi ma con differenze importanti tra geni-tori e soggetti TGNB; i soprannomi sono mediatori della sperimentazione e dell’affermazione sociale.;

Keywords:nome anagrafico, nome elettivo, TGNB, genitori, analisi narrativa, incongruen-za di genere.
