Deadnaming (that is: referring to someone by an old name, often used to describe referring to a trans person by a pre-transition name) is used as harassment and you can imagine how unpleasant it might be, especially if the people in a community you're in don't know that you're trans. I am a very heavy GitHub user and I am very glad that the CoC includes language for this.
