'''Use:''' A variation on Msr.
'''Use:''' A variation on Msr.
=== '''Nb''' ===
'''How to use:''' Nb. Hammond
'''Pronunciation: "'''En-bee" Just the the letters 'N' and 'B'
'''Meaning:''' This title stands for non-binary. 
'''History:''' The acronym came before the word "enby." [ can someone fill in more info here ]
'''Rationale:''' There are many reasons a non-binary person may "come out" publicly. Some of us choose to do so in an effort to normalize gender diversity. The word "enby" was coined as a result of the pronunciation of the acronym "NB" for "non-binary," just like "okay" followed "OK."  This title serves as a mechanism to educate folks about the existence of a non-binary gender spectrum.
'''Example:'''  A child says, "Mom, why does my teacher use Nb. Hammond instead of Ms. Hammond?"  Parent replies, "Well, your teacher is not a boy or a girl. They are non-binary.  So we call them 'enby' Hammond."
