We have a Julian, a dead Marlon, a Peter, a Paul, a Herschel, a self-chosen Kaleb, a Lascelles, ...we aren't big on the n names and I'm forgetting a few guys, aren't I? Ah, Kenneth. See, I'm not appalling.
I don't give half a hump if you're innocent or not. So where does that put you?

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

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm wrong, my nephew and one cousin end in N. And my sister's father-in-law, is he officially kin to me? I don't think there are any others among my in-laws, but I wouldn't swear to that as I'm not sure I could run down all those names. There might be some further up (or would that be down? I'm not sure about the metaphor now) the family tree, but not that I'm remembering.
My Box o' Produce came while I was at work, hooray!

New hire was almost fired this morning. I'm willing to accept her misunderstanding of the schedule. Was not looming forward to doing without and looking for someone else.

And now that I've read the article, nephew maybe fits the trend. His name doesn't rhyme with Aidan, but it is probably linguistically related.
Also also, nice to see vw, though I'm guessing I've missed her. Love to you if you read this, bug!

Hi, vw! Your father-in-law sounds like a wonderful man, and I'm so glad to hear that he is doing so well.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I married a Stephen, and my cousin's partner is a Jonathan. Apparently we don't birth the ends-in-n-names, but we hitch 'em.
(Edit: totally not counting Eugene, because it really ends in "e", it's a totally different phonetic pattern, and anyway he was a huge asshole.)

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Both my nephews have names that end in n. (So does my niece. All three of the names are considered unisex these days, or at least I know of both male and female bearers of these names)

I have a Warren and a Glen, but there are really no young people in my family.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
A son and a FiL whose names end in 'n', neither of them a variant or a soundalike of Aidan.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
New hire was almost fired this morning. I'm willing to accept her misunderstanding of the schedule.
Isn't she the one who flaked and went home sick her first day but didn't bother to call to tell you? She sounds sketchy as hell.
