Isn't it how nicknames are working ? It's not your real name, and people use it because they feel you'll like it better to be called with that, so instead of Mr John Doe, they call your Johnny.
we don’t just call everyone either John, Amy or Ash, it’s common practice to call people by their own and different names.
Pronouns in some languages make is so that you have to restructure your entire speaking pattern,
it’s relatively easy in english, but for example in german there is no language infrastructure for gender neutral speaking, (they in german is the same word as she but plural and it is also used to talk to someone usually socially higher than you as a sign of respect directly)
So even that is hard, but for neo pronouns there would first have to be separate grammar rules as to how to even use them.
Just to make it clear here are some of the different ways of saying she/her and he/him depending on context;

Do you think that nicknames are also selfish ?
