Starting in early 2014, or late 2013, a community of non-binary people on Tumblr came up with the idea of "nounself pronouns" (some call these "otherkin pronouns," but not all using them are otherkin). Some of the earliest sets of nounself pronouns are the fairy themed set ''fae''/''fae''/''faer''/''faers''/''faeself'', and the bunny themed set ''bun''/''bun''/''buns''/''buns''/''bunself''. During 2014 and beyond, many sets of such pronouns were created, and many were adopted as the pronouns of particular non-binary people. |

As of today the ''fae'' set is by far the most popular nounself pronoun set, with the ''bun'' set coming in a close second. |
