Probly because Vegeta and Raditz constantly deadnames Goku
Edit: I'm dumb, Goku isnt trans or nb (as far as I know)
-
Vegeta : What's your gender?
Goku : Fighting
Vegeta : I mean what do you identify as?
Goku : A super Saiyan
Vegeta : What's in your pants?!
Goku : Pure Ki energy

Considering he didn’t understand as a child that staring at Bulma naked was not appropriate, I’m not surprised he doesn’t know what a penis is.
EDIT: Yes I read that conversation as the voices of Christopher Sabat and Sean Schemmel.

He's got two kids and I'm still pretty sure he doesn't know how that happened.

It doesn't matter whether someone is trans or nb. Imagine anyone changing their name for any reason. Let's say through marriage. Hypothetically Jane Doe changes her name to Jane Smith or something. When someone then keeps using their old last name, that's deadnaming too. Goku doesn't consider Kakarot to be his name. He mentions that several times and some characters just don't get it. They're willfully obtuse. Goku is Goku.

Deadnaming surely applies to cis people who change their names as well right?
-
Names have power. To deadname someone, regardless of why their name changed, is to strip them of the power to determine how they are referred to. It should be just as offensive to cis people as it is to trans people. I had a professor years ago who said it was akin to using slave names to destroy sense of self, its a power play, and a fucked up one at that.

I think level of offense taken is up to the individual, but otherwise agree.
destroy sense of self, its a power play, and a fucked up one at that.
Which makes one question why woman have their name changed at marriage. I hate the "I now present Mr and Mrs MAN NAME" thing that happens at weddings.

Cw: misogyny by proxy
My religious education had an answer for that, plain and simple that "women are property". The Master of the Estate and his Mrs.
Its super gross, it actually made me feel kinda icky that my ex wife took my name, for that reason, but tradition prevailed over my opinion there.

I think of furries and other online friends like this, yes. Being trans isn't the only situation in which one has chosen an identity other than the one they were assigned.
That said, I wouldn't characterize Vegeta as deadnaming Goku exactly. I can't recall that Goku is upset by it, and I think it's mostly there to indicate Vegeta's continued connection to his home planet even after many years of being an Earthling.
Calling Steven his mom's name is deadnaming.
