Forum rules
We once roamed the vast forums of Corona Coming Attractions. Some of us had been around from The Before Times, in the Days of Excelsior, while others of us had only recently begun our trek. When our home became filled with much evil, including the villainous Cannot-Post-in-This-Browser and the dreaded Cannot-Log-In, we flounced away most huffily to this new home away from home. We follow the flag of Jubboiter and talk about movies, life, the universe, and everything, often in a most vulgar fashion. All are welcome here, so long as they do not take offense to our particular idiom.

Congrats!

Does this mean you're so loyal to Jubboiter that you're actively creating new subjects for her to rule over?

Pretty much. I thought she would need a trusted advisor. Hand. Tyrion to her Daenerys. Goebbels. Chewie to her Han. Laurel to her Hardy. Murtagh to her Riggs. Deputy Len Hendricks. Goose to her Maverick. Dr Dre to her Ice Cube.

On the plus side, Mal is also expecting and he's the clever, balanced one. I will just copy him!

The weirdest thing about all this is the suggestion that Dalty is (probably) sexually active.

Nice going, Dalty! Asian kids are super cute (or half-Asian in this case, I suppose).

When is Mrs. Dalty due? It looks like our kids are potentially going to be born only a short time apart - they can be friends! Or at least pen pals, or something.

Jan 19th. Seems a long time away but I have doubt it will be here in double quick time.

Jan 22nd is my birthday. If either of you are having a boy AND it's born on that day, I'm going to have to insist you name him Adam.

Are they also allowed to name their girls Adam, or do you insist on heteronormativity?

Hey, if they're willing to subject their child to a lifetime of teasing, they have my blessing.

Change has gotta start somewhere. You must be the change you wish to see in the world. This is why my child's middle name is "Pigeon."

Rather than naming his child something as mundane as "Man" or "Woman," Goiter went with a completely different species. He didn't even stay within the mammalia class.

It was technically Jubbers's idea. I'm just the guy who made her shake on it.

And then she cried, for she realized that the shake meant no takesy-backsies.

Already picked if it's a boy. Girl - still debating. For such a flowery and sing-song language Vietmamese sure does seem short of names. "Ho" would be terrible.

We had the opposite problem; still can't decide on which boy name to go with, but we had already picked out a girl name before we knew the baby's sex. What's making the task challenging is that we've decided not to go with any Biblical names, which rules out all the Apostles and angels. We're not being completely unreasonable, so we're mostly avoiding Old Testament names, but pre-Biblical names that later became names of saints and such are fair game.

Anyway, both Adam and Matthew are off the table for that reason.

I had a similar requirement when naming Jubboiter. No Biblical names and no family names.

Did Vespa already shoot down Maximus and Magnus, Mal? I could dig up my totally sweet list of male names, if you want. They were all rejected by Jubbers. Just like my female names. I was mostly only given the illusion of being part of the decision process. Such is life, I guess. I'm not the one who gave birth to the kid, so I suppose it's all right that Jubbers got to choose the name.

"Ho" is pretty awesome for a female name. I can imagine her in an all-female remake of Die Hard. I can imagine one of the original's most famous lines subverted to play off her name: "Now I've got a machine gun, Ho. Ho? Ho!" (At this point, Joanna McClane discovers her fiend and hideout buddy, Ho, being held at gunpoint by Gretel Gruber.)
