How I love to play with language!
And how I love it when others do, too!
Musings on Donna at pellegrina :
So Noble = Lord? Come to think of it, Donna = Lady, as well.
I was tickled by the notion, but it lacked one critical component. A bit of a Google search later, I was able to reply with a "friendly amendment", to supply Donna's previously unrevealed - but now crucial - middle name! "Horatia" is the feminine for "Horiatio" -- meaning "Time"! :cues spooky music:
Mind you, "Hera" is another really interesting option, what with all the marriage and childbirth overseeing. Just what's needed for Rose and Ten specifically and Gallifreyans in general. Recollect that we met Donna at her wedding, and futher recall the discussions that s4 has been all about reproductive options. Revisit "Forest of the Dead", if you will. Barring travel with the Doctor, domesticity is certainly the HEA that Donna hopes for herself, as well as - I firmly believe she must do (as do we!) - for Ten/Rose.
So, if Donna's name is:
Donna (Lady)
Horatia or Hera or similar (Time)
Noble (Lord)
...then which "Lady Time Lord" do you suppose she was (can you say "watchfob", anyone?) ...er, or will be :winks: ?
Thoughts?
P.S. - Delighting in crack!spec -- because I am currently "cracking myself up"! ;-P
