FYI to @Sthenastia @Stormkeep and others who think pronouns next to names appear only in tiny corners of twitter: Probably about 70%-80% of my RL work contacts (including coworkers and colleagues) put their pronouns next to their names in their email signatures, and in other places where names are listed. Pronouns are normally included on nametags at work events where people are first meeting each other (or they were, before the pandemic). I am not a professional activist or anything like that, either.
I find that interesting, as I've never seen it and I am a working professional too. What field are you in?
Either way, it doesn't make sense for it in the game to appear on the nametags because we, the player, never use the pronouns. The game uses them, but we do not...ever. Unless we are sharing a story outside of the game, but at that point the name tag isn't relevant anyway. Most of us hide headline effects for screenshots.
We don't need them as yet one more thing cluttering up the interface because we, as players, will never actually use them while playing. So it just doesn't make a lot of sense, to me, to include them there.
I've already said though, I also wish they'd remove the lifestage, club and celebrity status from the nametags as well. I just don't like "information clutter" in live mode.
