I chat with many who say they are "home nudist " how is being at home nude make you a nudist ? who doesn't go around they're home nude , bathe , sleep . to me a nudist is one who sheds they're clothes at home but also outside and becomes one with nature . someone who is comfortable being nude with others at a nudist resorts/camp , beach and would have no problem if legal in public weather going to the store , restaurant or stopping at the gas station and filling your gas tank. if "home nudist" is a thing than we all have been nudist since we were born .
Everyone here who has commented, has very valid points too
My definition of a nudist is a person who thinks that if it doesn't make sense to be clothed, it makes sense not to be clothed. So I'm not surprised that some people prefer to be nude at home. That makes them nudists, in my book, whether or not they seek out other nudists in social situations.
As for sleeping nude, I've been doing it since I was twenty, living for the first time in my own home. I had only sporadic contact with social nudism during that time, but that contact might have been the trigger for the decision to chuck the pajamas.
I consider myself to be a nudist. Pretty much nude 24/7 at home on my property. All of my neighbors see me almost daily(they said they were fine with it). Most family come over with me staying nude. The closest nude beach is almost 5hrs away. I am nude in my backyard, in my front yard , my everywhere on my property. I drive places nude. I haven't however spent time with other nudists in many years. So does does that make me not a nudist or can I be considered one because I wear clothes only about 2-4 hrs a month. The last nude beach I went to was blacks beach in the beach mid 70s.

How do you get all of your clothing required activities done in 4 hours a month or less? I average twice that just with grocery shopping!
You are conflating nudist and naturist. Though naturist also has different meanings. How about this? Let people use whatever label they want for themselves and respect their identity! No one needs to live in your narrow definition of anything. I can't wait till this generation is gone.

We shop online with an app and have them delivered. Because of my back issues if I go to an actual grocery store the cart is literally holding me up half way thru the store, so all shopping that can be done online is done so. I go to the post office when needed, to the dump twice a month, to the convenience stores when needed.
I appreciate the question, and I hope it's a genuine curious question and not trying to gatekeep the lifestyle, so I'll answer in that spirit. I think all of us are living in whatever way we can, are comfortable with and are able to under our circumstances. We all have our own situations and limits or maybe are at a particular point in un-learning the stigmas against nudity that we were taught all our lives.
I suppose the term describes us best more or less, since we just live nude at home as a preference and habit, not really intentionally or any kind of rule like "there will be no clothes worn in our house" or anything, it's just how we preferred to live, and seemed natural and healthy and was perfect for us.
However, we were living amongst a lot of people who had really puritannical ideas about nudity so just to protect our family we instinctively felt the best thing was to keep that part of our lifestyle to ourselves and just do it at home and stay dressed everywhere else.
We thought if we took our family to nude beaches or resorts somehow word would get back to some of these intolerant people who know us and they would cause problems in our community. Was that really necessary to be that cautious? I don't know, maybe it was overkill. In hindsight, I wish we had been more social, met other nudists, tried nude venues, but we just lived nude at home because we felt it was the safest thing to do to protect our family and felt that was necessary.
Now we're here and have tried some beaches and love being nude beyond home and wish we had done that years and years ago. And maybe under those circumstances that might have been a mistake all things considered. Maybe it would have been perfectly fine. The past is the past, but my point is that I don't think where you go nude, or with whom, makes you any more or less real or sincere. We can just relax and be who we are and enjoy the freedom of naturalism and not try to check one another about whether we're doing it right enough.
