#Elité season 5

[ravenadottir]

renaming characters: s1, s3 and s4

i just decided to compile all of them in one post since we all know these characters pretty well, and by that i mean i know SOME of the names from season 4.

season 2 / season 5 (i guessed/named them because i didn't play the season so... no stakes there!)

SEASON 1

allegra - she's very powerful, *clears throat* hot, and allegra as a name can be that...? i don't know, i feel like amber resumes this character so much, especially if you say it with her accent... amba... every amber in reality tv is a little too intense and we know she's the queen of cringey overreactions.

erikah - always thought laura would suit her better. i don't know why but i don't like erikah for her, but i think laura has a je ne sais quoi that she, the character, also has. she's very complicated and quite feeble at times, but her face tells me laura.

jen - she's clearly a fucking ashleigh. not for nothing, i know a lot of great ashleys', but the -eigh makes it so obnoxious and that's perfect for homegirl, because right off the bat she's claiming vanilla swirley hair romeo and ashleigh's tend to be like that... tell me you can't picture jen in a 2014 pinterest gear up in a pumpkin field wearing uggs and a fedora, i dare you to tell me she's not the type!

talia - is her full name natalia? 'cause it should be. in my humble opinion isla is a great name for her, (pronounced ay-lah) means island and it's spanish and scottish, perfectly beautiful for her, because let's be honest, if any of these girls is gonna have an interesting name, that's talia. hell, talia is already a great name!

jake - this is such a boring name for someone so full of flavor, i can't! he's not dabbed in caucasity nor adolescence, so why the fuck was he named jake???? mateo though... mateo is a fucking name, ok? it can be italian, spanish, portuguese, it doesn't matter. jake is such a 13-yo momma's boy name... ugh, no. if the guy has a collar popped like a fucking vampire and is walking around the villa with that hair, jake is not his name. PERIOD.

mason - i honestly like the name, just not for him. i always thought oliver would be a curveball because so is mason's lack of personality. let's face it they made a huge oopsie when interchanging levi's characteristics with his when coupled up with mc. mason is a drummer turned model, how the fuck did you manage to make him boring??? anyway, his face, to me, is giving oliver.

miles - he deserves a douche name because he has that chest piece, and any guy who displays such... awful tattoo deserves to be punished. fuck it, let's name him terry, short for terrible.

jasper - i mean, i HATE this name, and well, his face and hair is giving elité father tease, so i want to name santiago, because oh my god, every santiago i've met sucks ass and is a creep. the guy has a pet cobra, he HAS to be named santiago!

tim - this is the ONLY character who fits in the jake genre, because he looks 18 and clueless (affectionate). i feel like liam is somehow fitting for him, mostly because that's the go-to name in teen dramas... and usually the liam's are also clueless.

levi - why do his mates call him romeo is beyond me, homeboy has NO GAME. NONE. he's the personification (along with mason) of pretty privilege. if you stick a pin on his head it might deflate, because there's nothing going on behind those average eyes. fuck levi, his name is eric, basic and common.

rohan - since his name has multiple origins, and we don't know for sure his ethnicity (not that it matters, i know brazilian boys who are named tyler, so...) i'm naming him gael. he's a gael, argue with the wall.

cherry - have you ever seen a courtney??? because that's her! and she might be the type to say "although i have the same name as kourtney, khloe is my spirit animal" and you can't tell me she doesn't.

reese - tristan. fuck reese.

sammi - i would love to name her according to her ethnicity, because sammi apparently is hebrew. for instance, if she's korean: seong-min is perfect, because it's a genderless name and so it's sammi. also, i headcanon her as enby (she/them). if she's japanese, aya, because it can mean "brilliant fabric" and that's what she's fucking wearing. if chinese, yu ming, which means jade brightness, again... fitting! i like sammi, but i think it was a missed opportunity to name her in what could be her background culture, since lots of us don't know much, if anything about those countries. i for one didn't have any asian history classes in my school curriculum, which is weird because we had ajapanese immigration here, so like... MAKE IT MAKE SENSE. anyway, these are the names i would give her.

lucy - that's a rebecca that refuses being called becky, and will have a fit if you do. i don't have much to say about her, lucy can die in a hole.

~~

SEASON 3

elladine - she gives me "i have two L's in my name" but it's not elladine. it's something like danielle, which is really pretty and the first name that came to mind when i saw the teasers with her.

aj - this is a great name for her, i have to say! if anything i would've taken the same route and either use an acronym, like aj, or a "boy name" like robin. i honestly love that name for girls and enby's.

bill - honestly the caucasity is too much for me, and i have to say, the name has to fall into that category, so i'm naming him ryan! he's childish and you can tell nobody has told him to shut the fuck up ONCE in his life. his name is ryan and you can argue with the jar of mayo sitting next to him.

camilo - i don't like this for anybody, it's such an ugly name in my opinion. if they wanted to name him a latin name they could've gone with so many other prettier options, and to me he looks like a cauã (the last a is pronounced ahn). listen, cauã is indigenous from brazil, BUT it's so fitting for him, you'll have to trust me on this one! they're athletic and also very... um... let's say "active", and by that i mean they're all whores (affectionate). it's perfect for him.

harry - if zhong is his surname (and it's chinese), then i'm choosing my favorite boy name, which is jun hie. ((fun fact, zhong can also be a first name, and it can mean devotion, among other things that don't even slightly mean that, but i'm focusing on devotion)). harry looks like someone who deserves a cute name that has a deep meaning, and jun hie means outstanding.

nicky - what a bland ass name for someone so pretty! i like jamal for him, and i could stand here all day trying to come up with an excuse but truth be told, it's because of jamal sims (the coreographer), leave me alone he's hot ok!

seb - i actually think a cat name is perfect for him lol it's either seb or something stupid like axel or dash, which makes him INCREDIBLY EMBARRASSED ABOUT IT.

miki - i like it but i think something like sakura would be perfect. there's something about her that reminds me of the petals' colors... she's a pretty chill girl, and somewhat delicate, so i like sakura for her.

genevieve - i think it's perfect! it's dainty but has some strength to it. personally i think if i came up with a name for her it wouldn't be as good as genevieve. hate the nickname though, viv is really basic. call her vieve, man, what are you doing??

iona - i would never think of this name because i've never heard it before meeting her, but she gives me the vibe of a girl who has a big name but cool, short nickname, like andressa or andrea but the nick is andi. the choice is andi, you pick the original.

ciaran - this is a trent and you can argue with bill's mayo jar. he might be irish but his stance is the fucking white american who is a nice guy. i don't like his personality, or the lack of, and trent is a brainless guy, just like him.

tai - it's fucking perfect for him actually! when i saw him on the tease i thought of taika, tai or koa (joyful), but personally i think tai or koa are very fitting.

yasmin - whenever i see her i think of the exact color of iris, so that's the name. plus, she gives "hemp-skirt-wearing and having lesbian sex in an orange tent after lolapalooza" tease and that's why iris fits.

rafi - i don't like the name rafi for him, so... husani. it's pretty accurate, since it means 'handsome'. i also like how it sounds and i think it fits with his personality since that's... the only personality he has. "ah, but vena he talks about his brother-" i'm gonna stop you right there, because he does, but um... how many times did we get to see his depth? exactly.

lily (liliana) - she looks like a bruna to me. it is italian but we do have a lot of bruna's here, and honestly? THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME, and they look like that.

~~

SEASON 4

angie - she gives me strong vibes of alexandra, in a way that she hates her name and prefers a gender bent nickname, like alex. i don't like angie for her.

lexi - this absolute excuse of a person is a jessica to me, but the bad type. you know what i'm talking about, the type you have to call her out in the middle of a discussion because once again she's giving "THAT'S MY OPINION!!" tease. i hate this character so much, she's 46% of the reason why i stopped playing the season.

najuma - i love it but i would never think of this name since i've never heard it before. if someone suggested it, i would probably go with it, but if i had to pick one, it would be amani. i think najuma is better though.

thabi - honestly? pretty cool name for her, such a cute and short name, i would probably choose something like that. i'll keep it.

hazeem - not gonna lie i did NOT think he would have a muslim/arabic/urdu name when i saw him for the first time. and because i don't know NEARLY ENOUGH about the culture, i'm keeping it. he does look like a hazeem somehow.

james - it's such a common, bland, accessible name... then again, so is he. meh, james is fine. although he gives me benjamin... lol idk why, don't ask

kobi - this guy is such a... dynamic young man. there's a guy named calvin, from season 3 of the circle, and is the perfect summoning of what i think kobi is like. the type of guy that joins his fingers and gestures it to explain something, particularly to someone who hasn't asked anything. yeah, kobi's name is calvin.

will - ok, it would be EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN before will, especially knowing it's short for willem? LIKE, I FEEL SO BETRAYED- anyway, since he's japanese, and i wouldn't give him an engligh name, it's an opportunity to expand the character's culture a bit, so his name would be shigeru (lush), 'cause let's face it, the boy is pure lush... he has a fucking robe, it's perfect.

bruno - rafael vibes, and that's because here in brazil that usually goes to very annoying boys... (pronounced ha-fah-el). he just strikes me as a guy who doesn't know when to be quiet and well... he's a comedian, so you know that's fucking true.

youcef - if you told me he was french i would say pierre, because to be honest his face gives... absolutely nothing, so probably blanche? or blanc...? i don't know, he's just such a weird choice, all i think of is the "go back to party city where you belong" because of his hair. i'm definitely naming his blanche.

valentina - that's the most gabriela i've ever seen!! like... she's so fucking hot, i barely can think when i see her, and valentina is a beautiful name, just doesn't fit her vibe.

juliet - fuck this girl, i hate her design so much. and you know what, i also hate the name adrianna, so that's what i would name her. she has the vibe of someone who cuts you off to talk about herself and adrianna's love doing that shit.

cora - close but not quite, i would name her nova, because reasons. she just gives me nova vibes, maybe it's her style? maybe it's just how fresh she looks, idk, i just love the name nova for her.

tom - i'm not fucking with you, the first name that came to mind when i saw him was jerry, before knowing what he was called lol istg it's just jerry for me, the oldest most generic name for a guy that wears a goddamn suit on a summer trip.

kelly - i don't like the name kelly, it's really common in some regions here, i'm tired! plus, she breathes, walks and talks like a chloe, i can't imagine another name for her.

tiffany - hate this name, oh my god... if i had to moan tiffany at any given time, i would jump into an elevator shaft first. since they go by all pronouns, why not a gender neutral name? he gives me solid riley energy. i like it because of the girl in inside out and how there's male and female emotions in her head, so... riley.

dylan - he could be named rat for all i care. BUT i'm giving marcel, because that's what marcel's do, understimate women and are slightly misogynistic, and by slightly i mean a fuck ton. FUCK THIS GUY, FUCK HIS FACE, FUCK HIS BODY, FUCK HIS PERSONALITY. FUCK - THIS - CHARACTER.

oliver - at this point i don't even know, because he gives oliver, but he also gives mason, and also jason, basically names for guys that are ripped lol i think i would give him luke. don't ask, it's a luke thing!

— list 8 shows for your followers to get to know you better. tagged by the incredibly talented @ncllcraines 🫶🫶🫶

1. cold case (2003 - 2010)

- such a fantastic show with so many incredible actors. the choices of casting, score and music for each time period and flashbacks makes this work. still patiently waiting for a proper DVD release that will never come due to liscensing reasons!

2. aşk 101/love 101

- a Turkish show on Netflix that deserves all the hype and attention that Elité does. Such an underrated show imo and Sinan is one of my favorite characters.

3. nancy drew (2021)

- one of the better written CW shows and I absolutely love each character and the easter eggs to the yellow-spine books for the die-hard fans like me. so good, it deserves more love!

4. abbott elementary

- comfort show! just a super fun show and makes me laugh.

5. zone blanche (black/white spot)

- an under the rader French horror/thriller/implied-supernatural series that deserves more attention. it took me utterly by surprise and the atmosphere is just so incredibly unsettling. never going into a forest again after watching this series. forever heartbroken that there isn't a third season.

6. from dusk till dawn: the series

- one of the few shows that improves on the lore of the original stories and movies! utterly adore Seth and Kate and if you love Meso-american snake-vampires, this is the show for you. wish there was a fourth season :(

7. orphan black

- tatiana maslany is a goddamn powerhouse, that's all. i watched this on a whim and she deserves every bit of praise for her acting in this series.

8. supernatural

- mega comfort show for a majority of my life! i'll drop whatever I'm doing and re-watch every rerun on TNT. shitty finale but looks like The Winchesters is changing that 👀 jack kline steals my heart ❤️

[florbexter]

I see a lot of western shows on your feed and I’m interested if you could maybe reccommend a few with like your brief opinion on them? If that’s not too much trouble, thanks!

Heya! 

No trouble at all dear anon. So here we go:

- Skam Italia | Skam España | Druck | Skam France

Those are all remakes of the original SKAM series, a Norwegian production. It had 4 seasons and every season dealt with a different ‘problem’ for teenagers like peer pressure, coming-out, religion, self-esteem, sexual assault, feminism etc. 

The remakes have one thing in common: the special way of airing. They drop clips in ‘real time’ which are often only 2-5 Minutes long. The clips are accompanied by social media updates like Instagram, text messages etc. 

I love the 3. and 4. season of the Skam Universe the most because they resonate with me the most. The remakes are changing more and more from the original plotline which I personally think is great. Really recommend checking them out. I can’t be very brief with Skam but if you need to know more just message me again :D

- One day at a time (Netflix)

A show about a Cuban family, which is so, so good. Heartwarming, funny, heartbreaking. We have a single mother who deals with PTS disorder, a neighbour who is a recovered addict, a daughter who comes out as lesbian and much more! They deal with so many topics in a respectful and funny way! I love this show to pieces!

- Sense8 (Netflix)

Will always and forever rec Sense8. It’s not really possible to explain what it is about :D It’s science fiction and pride, and family and coming-out and kicking asses and LOVE. Great show!

- Derry Girls (Netflix)

OMG, I LOVE THIS SHOW!! It’s set in the 90′s in Ireland in a little town called Derry. You have dumb teenagers, humour which will leave you in stitches, so many references to pop culture omg my teenage years come to life! Oh, and you have a lesbian… go watch it for the lesbian! Please!!!

- Brooklyn Nine-Nine 

I think you really have to watch the whole first season of Brooklyn 99 to see the brilliance in their comedy. I love every character in this show and that says a lot. It’s the actual proof that you don’t have to use derogatory humour to write a good comedy show. It has so much growth for every character you want it to air for ten more years 

- Elité (Netflix)

A high school story about an elite school and the three ‘poor’ kids who attend the school because of a scholarship. A girl gets murdered and the first season deals with how it came to this murder and who was it. I liked it more than I thought I would. Great acting, great scenery a good plot and two pairings which I instantly loved. Omar x Ander have a great storyline. Season 2 is in filming atm. 

Those are the western series I watch currently, I hope you find something you like 💖

Why I HATE Umbrella Academy

I just finished Season 2, episode 5 and I gotta say:

Every character is a man-child, selfish. (Maybe that's the point of the show, awful father and all but they're just not likable.) Their entire motivations to their actions are not persuasive enough.

The entire show is cheesy. Bad writing and lame apocalypse for entire 2 SEASONS. It's getting boring. This is the show about Super Powers. For 2 seasons they're not showing their powers properly. More like 1000+ minutes of glimpse of it.

Plus, Luther-Alison relationship is the cherry on top. I freakin' hated Lu-Valentino on Elité. If that'll give you a clue.

But funny thing is that because I'm curious what'll happen next and now that I have 5 episodes left, I have to keep watching this. Uggh.

+ I finished the whole series. Yep. Still the same.

[tremendoustenderness]

The Samuel, Ari and Benjamín situation does remind me of the dynamic Archie, Veronica and Hiram had going on in the early seasons of Riverdale. Just a cesspool of unresolved daddy issues and manipulation.

[tremendoustenderness]

At this point, Rebe is the only character I actually like and care about
