Hey, I'm writing a PJO fanfic, and I'm trying to come up with a nickname that can be given to Percy (ocean/Poseidon-related) that isn't Seaweed Brain. It's iconic, but personally, it makes me a little uncomfortable as someone who was also bullied for my (lack-of) intelligence. Do you have any suggestions?
Hm, this is difficult only because I am not someone who particularly uses petnames/nicknames often. I have considered what Percy might call other people (usually fish puns - like calling people different fish species as a pun based on something about them. Like flying fish for Jason, etc etc). I do think it's interesting that with how the series censors swears in-universe there is some implication that "Seaweed Brain" and "Wise Girl" may just be stand-ins for "Dumbass" and "Smartass" so you could potentially play off of that with Percy just having another cuss nickname but most potential ones with that don't fully solve your problem/still be negative-leaning though not necessarily related to his intelligence.
"Water Boy" i can see being one that people jokingly call him as like a teasing insult, a la Jason being called "Golden Boy/Weather Boy" or Nico being called "Death Boy." I personally like the hc of him taking up a job as a lifeguard in New Rome during college so maybe something related to that? Pop culture references - Aquaman, Ariel, Jaws, Aquamarine, any character from h2o, Baywatch, etc. Maybe superhero jokes along the lines of Jason's "blond superman" nickname.
I could see him getting little cutesy sea-themed nicknames particularly from Sally - starfish, cuttlefish (or "cuddlefish"), scallop, "lil barnacle" (if he's being clingy), "lil clamshell," pearl, etc etc. Tbh fish/aquatic/marine stuff in general is an easy one. Maybe even branching out to waterfowl and similar/other water-adjacent animals. Also anything based off his name itself is easy (just referring to him as "Jackson," Perce [pronounced "Purse"] - though he kind of already has "Percy" so shortening that further feels redundant, etc etc). Maybe anything specifically about him being the son of Poseidon, depending on who is saying it ("Mini-Poseidon" / "Lil' Poseidon" etc etc).
Edit: actually, addendum - any of the silly nicknames from 50% Off used on literally any character. Especially ones directed towards Rin.
If anyone else has suggestions feel free to comment them!
#pjo#percy jackson#riordanverse#Anonymous#ask#headcanon#headcanons#i apologize im not great at coming up with nicknames >.<#there is potentially a joke to be made in something along the lines of ''Hey Lil' P-'' ''Don't call me that.''#''Should we call you 'Big P' instead-?'' ''...WORSE. thank u.''#in my brain i associate Percy with seals and sharks a lot so that could be a route to go with#i think it depends a lot on who specifically it would be calling him any particular nicknames#doing a broad ''what would Percy's nicknames be'' is a little more difficult

"DogDay?"
"Yeah Eve?"
"We're a team, right? We won't leave each other behind?"

"We're always a team, Angel."
Finally, the long awaited post of DogDay and Eve Ewe.
This scene is mainly from before the HOJ but after the experimentations. They're resting somewhere in Playcare under the "sun".

Now that's been a year out, I'm gonna say my biggest BG3 hot take:
Default durge should've been a companion if you're playing Tav
#this is mainly because I wish to kiss default durge#he'd be a great companion too like you got this fycking weirdo who smells like more corpses than astarion#accidentally kills someone and then hes like “oh yeah Im bhaal's chosen#my sister tried to lobotimize me but it just made me weak#i must kill her you see and eat her corpse#anyway you wanna bang in this blood pool?“#true evil companion that maybe you can make good but he still gets urges cause some sort of consquence#astarion thinking hes evil but durge is like actual evil is a very funny interaction#also Wyll collecting monsters instead of killing them#bg3#tries to eat Gale's hand when they first meet#calls a romanced tav food nicknames on purpose cause he would “lambchop you look beautiful splattered in brains”

"NUNCA APRENDES, PLATITA."
#[TRANSLATION: You never learn‚ Silver]#platita. yep. that's his nickname. it's very cute :')#it means ''silver'' but in a very ''tiny piece of silver'' kind of way. exist as a word the way words ending with ''ito'' or ''ita'' do#EXAMPLES: [carro(car) & carrito(small car)]|[oso(bear) & osito(small bear)]|[perro (dog) & perrito (small dog)]#colored doodles#sonic#YOUR WORLD OF YESTERDAY#silver the hedgehog#silver's father#sigh. this was going to be part of the answer for the ask asking ''what is your world of yesterday about''... alas. it's here instead :/#''Pops''... I ACTUALLY don't know what he would look like if im being honest. im imagining someone very tall and warm🤔#ORIGINALLY the knight owl was going to be his adopted parent but decided against it cause it would've ruined this whole thing she's got#with the time crow. so i'm now back in the drawing board. i do know i want his biological mother to be an arctic fox. so there's that :}#[also: gotta add that the owl still watches over him. she works for Pops. she's more like an auntie who has a very mean girlfriend haha]#anyways expect a kind father who become increasingly jaded and as silver grows up he recontextualizes his childhood and the reason#his father even took him in. ''none and i mean none of what you tell me will ever come to pacify my doubts and fears again.'' OOF.

the experience of reading stan twins fics and being constantly haunted by a name
#wishing folks spelt it as ley instead....#stan pines#stanley pines#then again the problem wouldve been solved if lee was a memorable enough character so people remembered his name lol#in my restless reading i see that face....#also wow that kid really does look like a sausage huh#also constantly thinking about how its canon that stan got into a fistfight with stan lee#....more like con stan lee amirite???#.........au where both twins went by stan and refused to budge#something something stanley going by stan and stanford by ford being so brilliant in-universe and metanarratively#it being easy for the viewer to get used to the reveal (with some missing out on stan taking on ford's name in some cases)#ford being a nickname that's his alone#while stan is something they both share#(yes i harp on about this bit tons lol)#but anyway despite the rest of his family learning about this it doesn't change how they call/refer to him#basically paralleling how their relationships on a whole didn't really change#cos despite stan feeling like he's been living a lie and that he's been tricking all his loved ones#they only knew him as him#not as the 'worse' twin not as an imposter#but ford and bill being few of the only ones who call him stanley#being the ones who knew him (or at least of him) before he took up ford's identity

I might have made the character intro template for at least the main blorbo I'm still not filling in those two sections
#Ilztun Auvryvirr#you can't make me go into game just to get his stats.#mostly because they're busted due to mods in use on the finished save so shouldn't count even if oddly close to the rolled for stat#tabletop version at this point.#I forgot the nickname one. though.#natural habit of instead of normal using character creator using screenshot from start/end since feels more correct for him.#when I have time to get further in sylf save I need one for her.

some bits of conversations I have had with. My mother where I realised we type in really similar ways



ignore the fucked up thing in the background
#she misspells things a lot more nowadays than she used to but hers are kind of different to mine#She says 'yoi' while I often say 'uou' or 'yoy' instead of 'you'#She does copy some of mine tho like. Tho and Macdonal#And poopi (nickname for dog)#She would thrive on tumblr

Some time ago I saw a post about Team niches and one example was about Warrior cats. After extensive research (cheking the AK and WC wiki for names), I present thee, the (my) Ultimate Arknights Warrior Cats Names Tierlist!!
Now, I don't know how many people actually know about WC but what you need to know for this tierlist is that in Warrior Cats, cats belong to Clans and have a name that changes from Kit to Aprentice to Warrior, and sometimes to Leader. Though, there are other kind of cats with different name conventions (I'll explain it when it appears).
The regular naming convention is [main name/relevant trait/desciptor] + [another part]. For example: Firekit, Firepaw, Fireheart and Firestar.
FLAMETAIL MY BELOVED: this is the Flametail rank, absolute perfection, follows the naming convention AND is an official Warriors name, what else could you ask for?
WARRIOR CAT CERTIFIED: Official Warriors name, it's just that the naming convention is not perfect... but it's official so what can I do...
A NAME IN WARRIOR CATS (BUT NOT A WARRIOR NAME): Midnight is a female (friendly) badger, Breeze is a Tribe name (other kind of cat group with different naming convention, her full name would be "Breeze that rustles the leaves"), Haze is a cat from the group.
WARRIOR CAT APPROVED: names that could be real Warriors names... some more than other... Cliffheart, Frostleaf, Mudrock and GreyThroat are good examples. Blue Poisen, Flamebringer, Rock rock are... not so good.
HALF A REAL WARRIORS NAME: they got hall right! If only they had a second part. I put Schwarz here because it's Black in german but I didn't put La Pluma before but... if cats can understand german, they can understand spanish.
COULD BE BUT NOT IN SPIRIT: names that could be but they either don't follow the naming conventions or the names wouldn't be real.
COULD BE A NAME, JUST NOT A WARRIORS NAME: names that wouldn't be so odd if a random (Non-clan cat) had it but it's NOT official (yet). Most as lone cats, but Mountain specially as a Tribe cat (it's really odd that it isn't already a Mountain in WC).
KITTYPET: pet/house cat names.
THAT'S JUST A NAME: honestly, here is most people. Some could be placed on other tiers, specially cases like Siege, Conviction or Penance that could go to "Does a cat even know what is this???" But I don't know, they aren't funny enough to be there and maybe cats do know how to Siege?
TWOLEGS NAME: human names. Imagine a fight like "You can't defeat me Fireclaw!" "Yes I can, Jessica!"
DOES A CAT EVEN KNOW WHAT IS THIS???: Lancet-2, the - included! 12F, that's not even a name! Beagle. A courier... for cats... because cats have mail... Meteor(ite), because they call cats "monsters" and of course would know that a falling rock from outer space is a Meteor(ite)! Dobbermann. Rope, because cats need them! Gummy, Croissant, Pudding and Tequila, because they know and it them regularly! Texas, because they know geography! Ptilopsis and Glaucus, honestly, I can expect cats to know german and spanish, but Latin??! W. Manticore, of course, mythology! FEater. Bison and Carnelian, at least they are not dogs but still, they are cats. Mr. Nothing, Gnosis, Erato, Minimalist, Cantabile, because they know human/science/art concepts! Specter, Phantom and Elyssium could be, they have a Heaven and hell concpet with literal ghost cats but, this erminology especifically... Yeah... and Asbestos and Cement........ Eyjafjalla. (Sorry Plat and Company but it started to get too long)
???: Lou Xiaohei and the Terra Research Commission... I mean... they are technically warriors... and cats... therefore Warrior Cats... technically... should I move them to the "Could be but not in spirit"?????
#arknights#warrior cats#in case you found this via the WC tags: Arknights names are codenames not their real names (except the boring ones like Saria and Ch'en#I finnaly decided to do this because I was pulling for Ines but Flametail came instead#I don't hate her (in fact i like her) but I wanted the Goat not the Squirrel#the Pinus Silvestris girls all have great WC names#in fact I hc them as WC fans (yes WC now exist in Terra) that loved roleplaying when they were kids and their nicknames stuck#this took more than I thought it would but I don't regret it

Writers, how do you come up with names when you're writing? It's something I always struggle with.
#i have a whole ass idea#which doesn't count as an idea because everyone is code names right now#and places are code names#because everything i think i like i stop liking after 30 seconds#i was a lot more confident in naming stuff 10 years ago lol i have 2 fully plotted out ideas i never wrote#and i still feel good about those names#but i'm getting to the point of outlining this general idea that i need names for things instead of just giving them nicknames

Me seeing someone with a cool name: oooooo, what if
Another part of my brain: no. we spent enough time getting to Jonah. we’re not doing it again
#occasionally I get the urge to just hoard names#I think it would be neat#but also like how would I even tell people that#like here’s a list of random ass names that I think sound kind of cool don’t even know if I like them for myself yet#also sometimes it’s a name that’s typically a girls name and if I went hey I kind of like this name I feel like I would end up getting#misgendered and I don’t want to deal with that#it’s so funny because I’ve always wanted to change my name and I wonder how much of that was trans stuff and how much was I just like other#names#like honestly there are points where boneworms feels like more of my name than Jonah#whatever that says about me#I think I got off the point but whatever it’s almost two am#j rambles#coming back to this to rant more in the tags#so like the current names I’m rotating in my head are Silas (not my favorite of the three and I already have a character named this but#still it’s cool) also Sylvester specifically to be called the nickname syl#and nova which I know is a more feminine name but also presenting masculinly with a feminine name would be very gender#love having a weird gender but I feel like other people would be weird about it in a bad way#it’s not like a don’t like Jonah but I think I’ve gotten too used to it if that makes sense#like yeah it’s my name but it’s not as fun anymore#I’m back again#silver is also a cool name#I should really go to bed instead of just adding to the notes of this post#wait wait wait wait#sylver#okay I’m done now#probably

Wowza ain't this a big one eh?
SCENE KID NJ IS BEST NJ PROVE ME WRONG!!!!
*ahem* Soooo...I did this on my Ipad if it isn't obvious, I actually really like this lol.
There honestly isn't too much to say about this, like Jersey was a slight scene kid in the early 2000s and basically DIY'ed everything he is wearing, did I make it obvious enough that he is a Devils fan?
The red and green is a heavy call back to the original jerseys the Devils used, which I lovingly call the Christmas Jerseys, and clearly I went VERY heavy with that lol
The other side of the hat has a Rutgers patch instead of the Devils one you can see, this would have been when the Rutgers football team was doing pretty good I think soooo ya know, I felt it was important to mention.
ANOTHER POLAROID, this time by Rhode Island, and no you aren't reading that date wrong and I feel as though I don't need to elaborate ;)
#welcome to the table#welcome to the statehouse#wttt#wttt fanart#wttt new jersey#wttsh new jersey#soooo#i had another sketch before going with the second one#it was him in a more 80s style dress#i was bored can ya blame me?#anyway i didnt really like it for a finished product so i went with the second one instead#also your eyes dont deceive you rhody does sign with rhode runner#pretty much every polaroid will be signed with more or less the states nickname#also polaroid's are not limited to jersey#he just happens to be the focus of the two ive done thus far#also this is probably the only polaroid drawing that will be completely finished and also on the ipad#like dont get me wrong i love procreate and the advantage of drawing on the ipad in general#but i also love doing the sketches on the computer where yeah i may have to put in more thinking but it doesnt take nearly as long#idk im sorta ranting now huh lol#anyway this was just my start to my Scene Kid NJ propaganda#there will be more#eventually#lolz

Warden Rook ily, you deserve better than this. Someone please ask them about their feelings after Weisshaupt.
#I doubt it’s going to happen but I also would really like another warden to actually adress rook as ‘watden Thorne’ instead of just#Rook/ Warden Rook#datv spoilers#datv#datv genuinely has made me fall in love with the grey wardens. I liked them so far in da:o too#:) grey wardens (:#which btw does the game ever bring up how rook got the nickname#because at least with a warden rook it’s shown that it from before Varric got them#I doubt that other warden who adresses rook as ‘warden rook you graduated a little bit before me’#just magically caught onto a nickname Varric gave rook#I don’t want it spoiled if it is adressed but like#anyways#I would love Rook to get more personal things#i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again#I hate it when main characters are treated as bland vessels for the stories progression#rather than characters themselves#rook is better at being an actual titular character than other characters I can think of#but they still lack the entire personal emotion part of it
