Is there a title (Mr/Ms/Mrs) that is gender neutral?

I'm back on my BS 🤪@lemmy.world to No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world – 117 points –

Let's say there's someone I want to call Mr/Ms/Mrs [Name], but I don't know their gender, is there a title I can use that doesn't assume their gender?

Lord [name], my [name], my dear [name], the one they call [name], oh great and powerful [name].

Jokes aside, one I've heard of that I liked was "misc" like miscellaneous lol. That one works a bit better in writing that verbal though.

Some other popular ones include Mx, M, Ind/Div, N/A, Mt, Nb, and many others.

For my own personal suggestion, I kinda like the idea of using "The" as a gender neutral title. Like instead of Mr or Ms Smith, it's The Smith. Has a nice ring to it lol

Hello, The Gary...

You can't tell me that isn't objectively the best way to refer to someone named Gary.
