after Crash's post re: training Kats and the tangent he and Jenny went on

Hey, digital world, I'm thinking about names today. Who assigned your name, and how was it chosen? Does it mean anything

I was named Jinx by the Carnival folks that took care of me. The did it because for about half a year I was just known as "The kid" or "The Brat" but they started to realize how unlucky stuff started happening around me so I became "Jinx".

I actually took on a few different names when I was a criminal, stuff to fill out paperwork with for the government and stuff.

I guess that fits, though it doesn't have very positive connotations.

How did you pick your other names?

[badluckbabe]

Eh, I grew into it.

Sometimes I took the names of famous people or Characters from Fiction just to see if anyone would get the references, like Dianna Scully from The X-files.

[tellmydad]

That's good, at least. I feel like I've grown into my name too.

Hm, I'm afraid I don't get that reference... I couldn't really do that unless I used Wigly or Mikan or something.

[badluckbabe]

It was from a T.V show in my world/Universe/time.

And if it helps? I think Jenny sounds smart.

[tellmydad]

Yeah, that'd explain it; we don't have TV on my planet.

Oh, thank you! I quite like it, especially now that I know what it means; I'm just considering another name for convenience.
