I'll take your movie name and raise you...

Your first name: Obi-Wan
What does it mean? I think it's made up. I don't think it has a meaning.
Where does it come from? Star Wars
Your middle name: Danvers (kinda)
What does it mean? It means "from Anvers", which is the French name for the city of Antwerp.
Where does it come from? From Antwerp, by way of France and England. Also my mom.
Your last name: Parker
What does it mean? Keeper of the Park, or gamekeeper.
Do you have any nicknames? Ben
What's your dad call you? Ben
What's your mom call you? Ben
What's your brother or sister call you? BBB
What do your friends call you? Ben
What's your boyfriend or girlfriend call you?Ben
Who's someone who also has your name? Uh. Obi-Wan Kenobi.
If you could choose your name, what would you choose? I like my name. But I guess Benjamin would be easier. But I wouldn't change it, really.

[wondertwina]

Ohmigosh, I can't wait to be angry with you and call you Antwerp. Obi-wan has nothing on Antwerp!

Ben suits you in its simplicity. What's BBB?

[obiwanmarvel]

Says you, Winky.

Big Brother Ben.

[wondertwina]

Even sticks and stones don't break my bones, Benny boy.

That's adorable. She's adorable. And high strung so I can't help but take it as an allusion to a clock but still, adorable.

[obiwanmarvel]

Everyone has kryptonite, Winnie.

Like the Big Ben in England? Huh! Never thought about it.

By the way, Antwerp is a cool little city.

[wondertwina]

I do look forward to you trying to find mine.

London <3 Intentional or subconscious -- I like to view things on a slant.

With a terrible name! But I hardly see how that doesn't make it fitting.

[obiwanmarvel]

Is that a challenge?

It's only a terrible name in English. It's fine in Belgian.

[wondertwina]

Everything is a challenge! That's what keeps us interested.

I concede. Will you do the same with your children?

[obiwanmarvel]

I'm interested without challenges.

Name my kids Antwerp?

[wondertwina]

Oh you. You're so ...you!!

Use their mother's surname.

[obiwanmarvel]

Thanks!

Oh. I don't know. I don't see why not. I don't get why mothers are erased from family stories like that, so yeah. Probably.

[wondertwina]

Erased, what an awful thought. Someday I'll spoil your babies.

When's school start back up?

[obiwanmarvel]

I know. That's why I'll do it. It's a long day away, I'm not having babies anytime soon.

September 6th. I have a science-heavy course load this term.

[wondertwina]

Maybe I just want to assume I'll be in your life that long. It's calming.

Brainy. Does that mean you're going to disappear into academia? A month seems like such a long time but then it just disappears! Hmm. Are you working at the paper right up to the end of the summer?

[obiwanmarvel]

You're odd. In my family, though, that's a compliment.

I'm taking the week before Labor Day off, then I'm going to work part time during the school year. Mostly weekends, probably.

[wondertwina]

Benny! When are going to breathe? You are an overachiever in overachieving.
