My god, I've just about convinced myself to update the family tree. Sheeit. I don't need that.
And remember, if you hurt her, I will beat you to death with a shovel.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

GilletteI know a Gillette! She in her mid-twenties and seems to really like the name. I never asked if she was teased about it.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I wasn't named after anyone in particular; my mom just liked the name Kate, and thought it was a good strong name for a girl. (I like to think Kate Hepburn had something to do with that.) She also thought it was a little unusual, though that's proven demonstrably false. Still, when you consider I was nearly named Greta instead, I think my name worked out just fine.
My dad's middle name is Rising, which I love. Neither my brother nor I got that as a middle name, but I'd like to give it to one of my kids.
Oh, and porn star names: Mine is Bunny Beach, which I think is pretty awesome, but my former housemate had the hands-down winner: Fluffy DiPillo.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I used to think Mercedes was a weird name for a girl. That was before I found out the car company was named after a girl.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I've friends with three daughters, all of whom have attributes as their middle names: Katherine Faith, Elizabeth Grace. The third daughter was adopted from China, and retains her birth name, so Emily (Chinese name) Hope. I thought Hope was an appropriate choice.

I field-tested Urban Decay's 24/7 liner under much the same circumstances and had the same results.
My porn/drag/stripper name of choice is Baba Ganouche.
