Chaos j.2K vs. Chaos j.H - Is it deadnaming?

[RedIAmNot]

In the most recent update of GGST, they've moved Happy Chaos' j.2K to j.H, now that he's been reworked to no longer be able to use the gun mid-air. 

I have to ask the hard question; does it count as deadnaming if you still say j.2K? From a moral standpoint, is it wrong? Does this count as a former alias or should this be treated with the same gravitas as respecting someone's chosen name? 

Let me know.

I think we should take this opportunity to give it a funny quirky name like "goomba" or something. Back in the Injustice 2 days, everyone called Darkseid's really good air normal "boot stomp." I have no idea what the input for that move even is. Even during combo notation they'd be like 1 2 3 etc etc etc into BOOT STOMP.

 

I think we as a fighting game community need more Boot Stomps.

I think it's morally correct to be a bigot about happy chaos, so even if it's deadnaming it's probably fine

It takes a while to adjust to a new name I'm sure j.H understands and knows we mean it with no malice. Except of course the people who do mean it with malice which are many.

I mean by that same logic aren't we deadnaming Bedman? every time we don't intonate the fact that there's a question mark at the end of their name?
