History
It was first coined on April 21, 2019 by tumblr user mogaiformycharacters, along with the alternate term "tigrisgender".

On December 3, 2020, Twitter user W1TCHCHICK128 posted their flag for tigergender to their twitter account, sharing a plain flag and a variant with a paw logo. The wording of the post implies that they were unaware of the previous coining. In the replies to their original tweet, they state that the pronoun set "tig/tiger" goes with the gender, but that one is welcome to change them to whatever they prefer.
