The ridiculousness of what is considered “professional” can get really annoying, though. Like, if a nonbinary folk were in the court and introduced themself as Sock, everyone would be all over them for using an unprofessional ‘nickname’ in court. That’s the person’s name! I recently heard a similar real-life story, but I probably shouldn’t share details, so the similar hypothetical is what you get. I know a person who always has colored hair who wears a “normal” wig to court because apparently self-expression is unprofessional. It’s all absurd.
