"Anti-Hero" just describes a character that doesn't have the traditional traits of a hero. Greg Heffley, as a "Wimpy Kid", would be a Traditional Anti-Hero, because he's a wimp.
Shush you.
It's a good thing I can't have children because I'd definitely try and cram some stupid reference in somewhere in their names.
I can't wait for my wife to realise our child gets to be nicknamed JoJo.

I think people should also know the books of the new Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke and John (and Ringo)

Fun fact, I decided that the name of the main character of the story I'm writing should be called Chris, and later decided to name his male relatives after the books of the bible (his dad's called John, his brother's called Mark and his future sons are called Matthew and Luke). Which is how you do a Christ reference right. With Subtlety.

Hmm...

*looks up the names of the apostles*

Simon/Peter
Andrew
James
John (not the same as "John the Baptist")
Philip
Thaddeus
Bartholomew
Thomas (Judas Thomas Didymus)
James the Less
Matthew
Simon the Canaanite
Judas Iscariot

I'd say these are all names one should be familiar with as well (considering they were all present for the last supper), but I haven't heard of more than half of these guys.
"I love all my children equally. Mark, Luke, John and uh..." *looks to smudged writing on hand* "Philippines."

P7's wife: "Why?"
Platinum7: "No reason."

No joke though, if I were to ever write a dumb OC story, I'd definitely name the character Dismas as he goes on some cliche self-redemption arc.

One, it's cool.
Two, it's not a name you see crop up a lot when referencing the bible.

I mean, I was going to work it into the first and middle name but whatever works.

I haven't gotten Casandra yet unfortunately but I'm obviously partial to Pyra. Otherwise, Pandoria, a spoiler blade, Zenobia...
Eh, besides my obvious bias towards the Aegis, Pandoria is probably my favorite.
Casandra is actually one of the few blades not on the Roulette, she's part of a sorta side quest.

The info seller in Mor Ardain will tip you off to her, though it's pricey.

Dismas sounds like a dismal name to me.

I can't even decide what to name EO characters, I can't imagine what it'd be like having to give a name to an actual human child who might be stuck with it for the rest of their lives.

...I don't think I'm fit to ever be a parent, even ignoring the fact that I'm unlikely to ever find an SO in the first place. I'm not sure I'd be able to cope with the pressure I'd feel from that level of responsibility.

Imagine not having dozens of OCs already.

This post has been made by Too Much Free Time Gang.
I easily filled a 100 characters grid with OCs.

And I was only stretching slightly, I could have probably filled at least one more row and column.

Free time is a blessing and a curse.

I imagine the trick to naming a child is to own a Child Name Dictionary.

Or, failing that, name them after someone you know.

Or name them after yourself, start a lineage.

I wonder who made the spam bots

Like someone (singular or plural) had to sit down and script this out and it seems like it’s almost multiplying.

Like I wonder what went through their head when they decided to target Smash Boards lol


I’d like to think there’s a dude in his bedroom in Korea who has a hidden personal vendetta against one of the admins here and as a result he’s like “hahaha TRY THIS ON FOR SIZE” except in an equivalent Korean phrase because that probably doesn’t translate well

I need to sleep and yet I won’t

My name is Kevin but I've never really kept that a secret. Call me whatever you want. It's a free internet.

The trick is there is no trick.

Seen countless times parents have settled on a name only to change their mind after the child's born.

Also seen plenty of times the couple couldn't agree so the pushier parent got to choose.

Get a bunch of names you like.

Put them on a dart board.

Play a game of darts.

Child: Why is my name Dart?
Parent: Because that's what we played to decide your name.
C: What about my sister, Twister?

I realised I listed Ryumo but didn't say what it was.

It's Mario.

Also Cyndane is Autumn and I can't remember what Zinith Zinith 's name is, but he's publicly revealed it before.
I’d say what my real name is, but I’m pretty sure some of you have already figured it out.

Not to mention the fact that I already revealed it back in the Smash 4 days.

Shame about you not being able to have kids (unless you don't want them in which case that's good).

See, the most I would do is try to have one of my children have the same initials as me. I've always liked the named Gwendolyn, so it goes along with the G in my initials.

My sister and her boyfriend have discussed kid names once or twice and I've legitimately advocated for either Jonathan or Jotaro.

But that's enough talk from me. Good night everyone!

I once worked with someone named Anakin.

Only once did I ever make a Star Wars joke about them.

They went on a break only for it to get really busy, at which point they went to buy a bunch of **** making the situation worse.

I responsded by shouting, "You were meant to serve the customers, not join them"

If you ever have twins, make sure to color code them different colors so they can be sick as hell rivals later in life.

So the word is that Steve also got shot down like Master Chief and Dante? Well that more or less makes that 5Ch Doomguy/Hayabusa rumor 99.9% fake then.

My favorite color is pink and my brother's is green. Inverse colors but not exactly a sick combination. At least twin part checks out.

Not decided yet (it's too early), but you need to be married to adopt in where I live, so it's not an option for me.


Yoshi, Boshi, Poochy and Shulk.
My brain combined the names and I ended up thinking “Yoboolk”
