Pronouns, Please!
by CompeyDev
Pronouns, Please! lets players set preferred pronouns that show in the tab list, over heads and within chat lines.
What it does
Each player picks the pronouns they want others to see, and the server shows them beside names. The display covers the tab list, the nameplate over a head and chat lines. A player who has linked a Minecraft account to PronounDB gets extra display options, and pronouns can be shown in the language a player has chosen for the client.
The mod is a lightweight, dependency-free server-side Fabric mod, so only the server needs to run it and players connect without installing anything. Pronouns, Please! is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only. Files are published for Fabric alone, for 1.21.10, 1.21.11, 26.1 and 26.2, with v0.1.3+mc26.2 for 26.2 as the latest build, dated 2026-10-14.
Key features
Pronoun setting
Players choose their preferred pronouns, which then show next to their name for other players on the server.
Tab list and chat display
Pronouns are shown in the tab list, on the nameplate over each head and in chat lines.
Localized pronouns
A player sees pronouns in their own preferred client language, so the display follows the language they play in.
PronounDB integration
Players with a linked Minecraft account on PronounDB receive cute pride flag decorations, and the mod shows those extras.

Use cases
Who it’s for: Server owners who want a pronoun display for their community, and players who want to share their pronouns without installing a client mod. Because it is server-side only, it suits servers where players join with a vanilla client.
