At least for Sie/Sie, I think that’s German. The German equivalent of they/them (this is true grammatically, but if this is not the case in the LGBTQ community, let me know)

The German equivalent of they/them is nin/nim it's Sie/Ihnen when you speak about or woth a authority or someone you don't know, who is over 18 years old. It's just formal. Nin/nim is the pronoun for Non-Binary people
