#Hyphen Fam

[flake-n-rudy]

The servine opens the Arena doors, allowing them all to rush past him in flurry of fur and scales The seismitoad looks down at the pokemon, visibly sweating in concern Seismitoad: S-Sir.. Mister Frost... Why would you... Did you not know that they all jus- The servine turns around, walking back towards the post where the guildmaster was kept Archangel Frost: Oh. I’m quite aware of what’s happened in the arena. The pokemon gives a sly glance over his shoulder Archangel Frost: Where is my thank you for helping you out, however? Seismitoad: O-OH! T-thank you sir.. O-obviously... The servine continues walking away, without further word.

[fallershipping]

I don't have a last name or last names for Looker and Anabel, but I imagine that if I did, both would keep their last names in marriage or at least hyphenate them, same for their kids.

It's funny to call them Faller Fam though.

[lunchboxpoems]

When I hear my name, I feel like I am my own country. I do not have my parent’s name but their blood runs through me like hyphens. Shout out to the fam addicted to addiction, the conception of greed, for the feeling a body has when it has too much. I know men on the block are full to the ends of their skin with sin. On the corners of my block, brothas rep their hood like nations would. Allegiance is the only name that binds. I pledge it like a President, one hand on the bible, the other dipped in blood. I’m faithful to my people with no god. Godless tribes deserve the shout out, the call to the hopeless. We have no church to burn. Shout out to the streets undone, the concrete that memorizes the word surrender. Shout out to the surrendered. You fail for us to fail easy. When I jog through rain I feel each bulb catch fire on me. Watch me sing bright with a somber song. Shout out to the women who’ve sung for me. I am a man with many songs but sing none. I want to acknowledge the homes I know, the brick frames with smoke in the interior, I want to give a shout out to the place that’s displaced. The 5 a.m. mornings where my city is no longer mine, but belongs to the cool breeze that sweeps the easy blood off the ground. Shout out to the blood, the body it once belonged to must be lighter now. Death is sometimes my shadow, and when the block is full of them it becomes a beautiful carnage of darkness. Shout out to the ones that finance the wreckage, the economical philosophies of place, how we lose it but never bound by the lack of it. Shout out to the lack of, the absence in which we make home in. Shout out to home, the blues that brings me closer to the earth to sing. Shout out to Harlem, the mangled heaven I know too well to leave.

Annabel Lee carpenter sounds like such a good baby name!! Though I know Tara will most likely take readers name🫶

tara is def taking R’s last name fs

she wants to be fully part of that fam 🥺

but i think R would honestly probably want to hyphenate tbh

Simon Van Dracula:

In-universe: I decided Ericka had an ancestor somewhere named Simon. This one could go either way, but it also means Harkening, which...listening to others is something Drac needs work on. XD

Out of universe: Simon is technically named after a prior version of Johnny (and possibly Ericka) : Simon Van Helsing, a monster hunter who fell for Mavis after discovering the hotel. His name was a mix of Van Helsing from the OG Dracula and the movie with Hugh Jackman, and Simon Belmont of Castlevania.

Lucy Van Dracula:

Out of universe: Lucy I named after the girl that gets turned in the OG Dracula, Lucy Westenra. It was either this or Mina, and there are enough M names in the Drac fam and Drac Pack. Also....Mina would play too much into the whole Drac/Mina shipping. Bonus: Lucille, her full name, is similar to the classic comedienne Lucille Ball.

In-Universe: It's probably a mix of a feminine version of Lucifer and the fact it means "Light" or "Little light." I wanted Drac to have a chance to name a kid since Martha named his past one. I also figured Lucy was too informal for him to pick so I went with Lucille, shortened to Lucy as a nickname.

As for Van Dracula, I saw Ericka's name listed that way on the wiki, and I liked it. It's a nice middle ground between changing her name and keeping it, so I used it for the twins. Seemed a nice way to show Drericka's now mixed legacy.

Megera Ritchi

Not only does Megera start with Meg, but Megera from Disney's Hercules is much like Roxanne Ritchi/Lois Lane in some ways!

As for her last name...Megaminf doesn't really have one, so I imagine he takes Roxanne's name, and thus so does Meg.

Elvis Pelekai:

This one is pretty easy. Lilo and Stitch are both Elvis fans, so it makes sense that Stitch and Angel's singing son be named after the King.

Maui Pelekai:

Lilo and Stitch live in Hawaii, which the demigod Maui is a big character in polynesian/Pascific Islander myth. (Moana being out around the time I created them helped.) Plus, it fit for a strong yet coldhearted troublemaker.

Nala Pelekai:

I kinda named her both after Nala from the Lion King, and of course the phrase "Meega Nala Queesta!" It seemed fitting for a mischievious daughter to Stitch's.

Aloha Pelekai:

The baby of the family amd perhaps the most good and innocent of the pups and the best example of what upbringing can do, her name literally means "Love, Hello, and Goodbye!"

As for their last names: Stitch most likely takes Lilo's last name since he's part of their family, as does Angel. So, the kids do too.

James Felonius Wilde-Gru:

James is from James Bond, and I decided to re-use Gru's first name.

Since Lucy works at the AVL, I figured she kept her name, and hyphenated it with Gru.

Lilith "Lily" McKenna Lipsky:

I wanted to play on her being a villain, so her name is literally from a demon, but it also can be shortened to Lily like the flower, playing off Drakken's flower power and Shego's tendency for nicknames. McKenna means fire.

Aaron Ronald Stoppable:

Aaron not only is a bible/Hebrew name, but it fits the "Unstoppable" pun Ron's name does. Ronald comes from his dad.

Connie Ann Stoppable:

Connie means steadfast, works in the "Unstoppable" pun, and Ann comes from Kim's name.

Kelly:

As a love interest character for Rufus, her name compliments his: Rufus' name means Red-haired, while Kelly means fair-haired.

Jaren Arthur Long:

The only boy name I could think of that would mean anything to Rose aside from Jake is Jaren, after Jaren McArthur. His middle name comes from Arthur Spudinski, Jake's friend, and also works as a Jaren McArthur reference.

Elizabeth "Lizzie" Fu Long:

This name was inspired by @ebevkisk . Elizabeth shortens to "Lizzie" or "Liz," which fits a girl who can turn into a giant reptile. Fu comes from Fu Dog, Jake and Grampa's faithful animal guardian.

And of course, Long is chinese for dragon.

Susan Tyler:

This one's named after The Doctor's Grandaughter Susan.

Alex Tyler:

Alexander means "Defender of mankind" which seems fitting for a son of The Doctor.

As for Tyler, Like Megamind, The Doctor technically doesn't have a last name that we know of. (Closest is the alias "John Smith.") So I gave him Rose's. Plus...kinda fits him to break convention anyway.

Why is your OC named what they're named? Is there a different reason in-universe than out-of-universe?

NAME: Rita Saluki-Sykes AGE: 47 MAGICK STATUS: Mundus OCCUPATION: lounge singer, wife, mom, does it all CURRENT LOCATION: Resides in New York City, visiting Swynlake with her fam RELATIONSHIP STATUS: Married to Roscoe Sykes CHILDREN: Oliver Saluki, Mason Sykes, Vivianna Sykes FC: Lana Del Ray BIOGRAPHY:

Rita hadn't thought about moving back to the States. She'd gotten comfortable in Swynlake. It had easily become home once things in her personal life began to slot together nicely. She had things there that she hadn't ever thought she'd ever have. A husband she loved, three happy and healthy children, friends and family that stood by her side no matter what.

But then Dodger went back to New York. Then the rest of the gang followed. And when news that things were finally finished with Bill reached them, Rita knew that there was no keeping Roscoe from going back home. No matter how dark some of the memories were that came from there.

None of which mattered because while she had feared that some things would go back to the way that they were, Roscoe proved time and time again that his ideals had shifted. That things weren't going to be the way they had been before. They had a family together now, more love than possible, and a future that was bright ahead of them.

It was crazy how easily New York City became home again. Once the kids were settled in school, Rita found work in a lounge that didn't exploit her or the other girls that performed. She could come and go as she pleased (though she had a feeling that was more thanks to her hyphenated last name than anything else) and she could perform whatever she liked.

Though, she still kept in touch with her people back in Swynlake and when she was told about the gala for the MMLA she knew it was the perfect excuse to go back and visit everyone. More than aware that the only person really excited about the trip is her daughter, Rita still plans to enjoy herself and catch up on all the hot goss she's missed out on over the years.

INJ Intros - Declawed

Injustice reader: She's Catgirl! Selina found her struggling on the streets and took her in! She's a lot nicer and is more willing to become a hero than her mother figure but she's still got that cunning flirty part of her. Interactions with: Damian (romantically, she wants to believe him when he says he didn't kill Nightwing), Catwoman (familial), Batman (platonic; I need at one when she asks if she can still call him father in law), and Starfire (she still wants to be friends with Star, but Star won't give her a chance)

[notyetbulletproof]

I do think in the world of Bridgerton, Kate will hyphenate her name. That Anthony would welcome it too. Understanding what “Sharma” and being called by her full name “Kathani” mean to her. A women of high society wasn’t allowed to have a lot in those days but she had her name and seeing as how Kate was intent on NOT finding a match for herself and staying unmarried instead being intent on making her own way in the world. Her own way as Kathani Sharma. Her name, a solid tangible piece of her parents. Seeing as how (in the show), Lady Mary kept her last name pre marriage, adding it to Mr Sharma’s (Sheffield Sharma), I don’t see why Kate wouldn’t do the same.

I’m reading a fic and it’s prompting me to think more about why Kate chose to go by Miss Sharma and not Miss Kate. Was it because she was older? Would Edwina have gone by Miss Sharma too had Kate not been there? Is Edwina “Miss Sharma” now until she marries? Lady Mary went by “Lady Mary” instead of “Lady Sheffield Sharma”. Was it for ease in communication? To reduce the link to scandal — of leaving the Sheffields to marry Mr Sharma? Hmmm?

I also wonder why Kate chose to go by Kate. Was it to protect herself? To protect her name from (possibly) being butchered by the ton? To anglicise her name? It was likely already an anglicised nickname. Edwina being Edwina and her nickname being Eddie and all (did I remember that wrong from the books?). Did she do it to keep it close to her? To keep what was HERS to herself?

Yes, in the book, she’s Kate because she’s Katherine but this is like MJ/Michelle stuff okay? I also remember Kate (books) preferring to be called Kate over Katherine. She’s not Katherine here, she’s Kathani and she’s epic. I love her. So, I’m going to sit and wonder what led her to choose “Kate” for the ton and I’m going to continue to hope that if her choice to keep “Kathani” to herself and her fam, that Anthony will call her “Kathani” in the privacy of their own home or just between them like a secret. Or if she chooses to step into the role as Kathani Bridgerton, that “Sharma” is used affectionately like when (cute) annoyed, “Kate” is her nickname with family etc.

Ya know, like when Lizzie Bennet has that whole convo with Darcy about what they should called each other. LIKE THAT YA KNOW??

Edit!!:

@gisellecygnets comments on this post are incredibly helpful in regards to this!

[endless-fluffering]

Am I the only one who casually says “Hello, sister of mine,” “hello, dear sibling,” or, if addressing several at once, “Hello, fam-i-ly”?

I’m right and I should say it

[athenagrantnash]

Love all the families but the Grant-Nash-Hales will always hold a special place in my heart.

SAME!!

The Grant-Nash-Hale fam is literally the best family EVER to be portrayed on TV, and I honestly don't think any show after this one will ever be able to put together such a perfect merging that this family is.

I'm always going to be devastated that Michael and David left right when we finally got to officially hyphenate Hale into there, but like... that doesn't change how perfect they have been the ENTIRE time. They're legitimately amazing

[chinchillasinunison]

Im beggin you to give me some ishimaru-hagakure-owada fam headcanons

Oh gosh THANK YOU I was looking for an excuse to talk about this

Okay..... so basically every combination of the six except for Mondo and Taka and Yasuhiro, Taka and Hiroko, and Hiro and Takaaki met before Hope's Peak Academy

Hiroko and Takaaki were aquainted in highschool (and Takaaki low-key had a crush on her) before she got pregnant with Hiro and Toranosuke forbid him from interacting with her because she was a "negative influence" and they fell down separate paths

Hiro and Daiya were part of the same class when Hiro was actually supposed to be in highschool. Daiya didn't go to school much because he was so busy with the gang but they were still pretty good friends, they just drifted apart when Daiya stopped going altogether

Takaaki arrested Mondo once or twice and was one of the officers at his and Daiya's accident, while Hiroko was one of the nurses who attended to the brothers while they were at the hospital

So how does everyone reconvene? Okay, so a little bit into the semester (after Taka and Mondo start dating) there's this award ceremony at Hope's Peak all of Class 78 is required to attend, and they each get a plus one. Of course Taka, Mondo, and Hiro choose their respective closest family members. Taka thinks it's a great opportunity to introduce his dad to his boyfriend.

He tries to introduce them with Daiya there, while Hiro and his mom just happen to be nearby. It basically devolves into a five-way Spiderman pointing meme with Taka in the middle like "??????????????"

Hiroko and Takaaki and Daiya and Yasuhiro jump right back into things as if nothing happened and let me tell you Mondo and Taka feel like they accidentally stepped into a different timestream, they're so baffled

Anyways yeah Hiroko and Takaaki catch up and soon start dating and eventually get engaged

They get married too over the summer but it's not a big ceremony they just do it at a courthouse then go home lol

Taka is thrilled with the development and started calling Hiroko "Mother" as soon as he heard about the engagement, he never knew his mother so it was a very easy switch for him to flip

Hiro is worried of course, he can literally see the dozens of ways this can go wrong, plus he remembers his douchebag dad so he's afraid his mom may get hurt again, but he warms up to Takaaki quickly and eventually calls him "Dad" instead of "dude" and "Mr. Ishimaru"

Hiroko and Takaaki don't take one or the other's last name or combine and hyphenate (despite the name of the AU), both because they didn't want to deal with the hassle of changing their names on all their paperwork and Takaaki didn't want to risk Hiroko getting harassed about the scandal

Anyways, more generally...

Daiya and Yasuhiro were very casual about starting their relationship, they were just watching TV together one night and Daiya was like "hey dude you wanna kiss?" "...yeah sure"

They space out while listening to music together a lot

Daiya and Mondo are very respectful of Hiroko because they drink respect women juice daily and call her "Mrs. Hagakure" but they call Takaaki either "old man" or "pig" and he's like "well I've been called worse"

Daiya's right leg got majorly fucked up in the accident (instead of kicking Mondo away from the truck's path he rammed into the side of his bike, forcing them both off the road) and he walks with a really bad limp. He should honestly use a cane but he doesn't for a while because he's stubborn (Hiroko convinces him otherwise).

Yasuhiro turns Takaaki on to aromatherapeutic stuff with his incense and so he treats himself to nice scented candles and lotions with that fancy new two-person income because he's Stressed All The Time and maybe he deserves to smell like a honey cashmere glow (whatever the hell that means)

One time they were at the mall and Hiroko lost Takaaki in a Bath and Body Works because Taka called her for backup as Hiro was getting suckered by a random kiosk salesperson and she ran out of the store to help while Takaaki was absolutely Lost In The Sauce and she didn't realize he wasn't with her

This is just me projecting but it's my AU so whatever: Mondo is nearsighted and needs glasses badly, he just doesn't realize it because he thinks that's just how everyone sees. His eyes struggling with distance actually contributed to why he doesn't do well in classes and drives recklessly, besides the delinquent culture he grew up in and his general attitude. He puts them on for the first time and is like "OH OKAY SO WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO SEE ALL THE LEAVES ON A TREE, IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO LOOK LIKE A BIG GREEN BLOB? THANKS FER TELLIN' ME THAT, ASSHOLES!" Yasuhiro is farsighted (haha get it because he's clairvoyant) and they both get vision tested and their first glasses around the same time. Hiro jokingly calls them Glasses Buddies and Mondo is like "if you weren't dating my brother I would punch you in the throat".

Taka teaches his step brother and the Diamond Brothers how to cook because they cannot live the rest of their lives off Cup Ramen, he will not allow it

Hiro really, really wants pet chickens but Takaaki won't allow it until he's out of school to take care of them. It's a surprisingly good motivator for him to actually try this time. And having Taka constantly on his butt, but this time with Brotherly Concern™, helps.

[mrskurono]

Every time i see spouse!reader with their husbands characters and having them being written as Mr/Mrs [husband last name] made me feel... idk. Icky. I’m just biased bc i got my husband took my last name (my best friends keep saying “THAT’S TRUE LOVE BITCH”) and i never failed on flexing them with my —slightly peeved— in-laws 🤡

And it also doesn’t hurt the fact that I’m literally the breadwinner of the fam (not to toot my own horns bUT TOOT TOOT MF). Even if it’s fictional i aint changing my last name 😌 besides, in japan, the amount of the husbands took the wives family name without any shame is heartwarming <3

My wife straight up knew I'd never changed my name no matter what 😂 (to be fair she hated her name and my last name means a lot to me since my dad passed away) Like I don't really mind considering I married someone who hated their family ties so I get why some people would legit change their last name when married. But I was pretty set I'd never change my last name and that my offspring would have my family name in honor of my dad (my son shares my dads middle name too bc I hated the "family" name we have on my mom's side lol whoops)

I'd hyphenate my name with Atsumu. That's the best he gets. Waka's basically an adopted orphan with a name slapped on him so I don't think he'd care if he took my last name 😂

[abortionado]

how did hotch come up with the names for all his kids? or, because i am mesmerised by the short lived rossi fam, how did rossi come up with them?

Dad!Rossi does not name his kids, his baby mamas name them. He does not care

Hotch names Derek in collaboration with Fran. They both like it, because it’s short and snappy and means “people’s leader,” and a leader by and for the people is the best thing a person can be, in Hotch’s opinion 🥺

Emily’s mom picks her name, because it’s a family name and she really likes it, and Hotch is cool with it. (“Emily” means “striving” or “strong-willed,” which turns out to be very fitting. 🥺💘)

Aaron and Sandy can’t decide between “Jennifer” and “Joy,” so they give her a hyphenated name. “JJ” is of 7-year-old Derek’s invention :)

Penelope’s parents name her :(

“Spencer” is the most reasonable unisex name Aaron can get Diana to agree to. She doesn’t want to know the baby’s gender, and all her other names are super archaic and weird. Aaron is not letting anyone name his little baby “Æthelflæd”
