Good example for an acronym's meaning to depend on context. A username usually doesn't contain enough context to support acronyms.

Interestingly, Wikipedia lists "full-time mother" as one of the possible meanings of FTM. Acronyms quite commonly have more than a singular meaning.
FTM has FTM (Far Too Many) acronyms

My sister was really excited about how many seahorse dads there were in her zoom pregnancy group (the pandemic was wild), because nearly a quarter of people had FTM in their handles. She even went a step further and noticed that they tended to be relatively femme for her expectations, and speculated about how difficult it must be to discontinue T and go through all of the pregnancy related hormone changes while still trying to present as masc.
"Seahorse dad", what a cool term!
MTF β Multiple-time father
Or MTF = My Trans Friends. As in "my trans friends are also welcomed." This FTM is so confusion inclusion-coded.
