In response to "i know a few people that do he/him/they/them.. some people use multiple. " by colin

I always took that as they prefer "they/them," but if it's not possible go with masculine. Is there a gender neutral word for Aunt/Uncle for example?

Like I think they'd be okay with you calling them your uncle instead of your parent's sibling.
