why should parents get to pick names for their children?

this is kind of gross tbh. new children should just be randomly assigned a name from the canonical random name generator.

is this about Massive Chalice?

When they become men, they will get their true, spirit name.

I bet they'll make naming paid-DLC in the near future.

I think Reclusive is really talking about publishers picking names for their developers games.

I'm sure Sony is already using a random name generator so you should be happy (Horizon New Dawn).

I think you should name them a series of control characters, but then give them a name if they die during Project Mayhem.

My real name was Daniel-Emil. But I had the Daniel removed when I was still a pretty young kid, because I didn't like it. #progressivefamily

Much like the tyranny of designation parents force onto their children at birth, mods have done the same with his post.

Man imagine the congressional debates over the distribution used to model the names as Republicans push for Christian names (currently in vogue).

Instead of being named, everyone should be assigned a unique serial number and have it tattooed to their forehead imo
