Gavin, ask yourself this question. What are you more afraid of, a giant murderous demon or me?

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

It is indeed super cute! And Matilda has the same polar bear (a Buffista gift) that's all squished up behind D as he's memeing away. Sometimes I ask her if it's the polar bear she ever saw, and she rolls her eyes and says, "No, Mommy, you're the polar bear I ever saw."

He is such a big beautiful boy!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Okay, I understand people wanting to name their kids Arya, but what the hell is wrong with people that THEON is a popular name??

I know! That is just not right.

Also, I would strongly suggest that parents wait until the series is complete before naming children or pets after any GRRM characters. You just never know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Cinna – along with Senna, a female version

Um, really? You can't just name your daughter Cinna?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you can.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Senna is an actual herb, which relieves constipation and acts as an emetic, IIRC.

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

You know what's a really easy conclusion to come to? When someone says that a name spikes in popularity that the 800% or whatever has something to do with how many kids are being named that name. And I'm not even going to quibble over if it's a middle name or a first.

But what I'm really not considering is "attracting the biggest spikes in views". I find I actually don't care about that. I don't count that as a "strongest baby name influence" until it comes out the other end and the social security administration records start reflecting something.

Also, how can you be "boldly individualistic" and "hottest"? And Cinna needs a female version, so it's not one of the ones that shares "a transcendence of traditional gender identity". Any guesses for the rationale behind the chick version?
