suzanne collins: yeah pretty much everyone from every district has a name related to their industry except district 12. why? uhhhhhh fucking make it up yourself i'm not your mother
#thg#the hunger games#and let me be clear: I LOVE HER FOR THAT#suzanne collins is a queen because she's not constantly on twitter#among other reasons#my interpretation is that it's an extension of the capitol's power#katniss only knows about things within d12. she is prohibited from fully seeing them as people.#insert the 'ppl in d1 name their kids such dumb shit' quote#it's a way in which the districts are further alienated from each other#and snow doesn't give a flying fuck about anyone other than himself. except for that brief window he was infatuated with lucy#he had to know 12. he had to see that they existed and to interact with them#he didn't have to for any other district so he didn't see them beyond their industries#and i'm not saying 'their names weren't really their names and the narrators made them up' no i think that's a major stretch#i'm saying that the narrators only being able to associate with (katniss) and choosing to associate with (snow) 12#led them to initially perceive them as their industries#but ofc this continues for snow throughout his life. katniss stops when she goes into the games#(consider names like annie and woof. like yeah 'crest'a like a wave but that's not how she's referred to)#names are important#i think names are a reflection of the narrator's relationship with the other districts at any one point#uhhhhhh yeah :P
