#single letter names
Explore tagged Tumblr posts
Text
Okay so single letters can be names (ex: V, A) thats established and people with CDD have alters with atrocious naming skills (affectionate) that draw themselves to weird names - one subtype being single letters.
Some common ones I know in media and in peiple are V, A, B, Z
But what letters would make really bad names?
Discuss
I nominate "P" as a bad name solely because when you say "I'm P" most will think either Pea or Pee before the letter P

Crazy how Targ/Valyrian names can sound feminine or masculine because of their association with a character
#like yeah there's linguistic bias like names ending in 'a' seeming more feminine#but sometimes I look at a name and tilt my head#the 'ys' ending isn't gender specific#without Daenerys would we think Daenys was feminine?#it could pass for a fantasy version of Dennis (Daenys sweetie I'm so sorry)#Denys (ugh)#(it sounds fine in Valyrian context)#could you tell if Maelys is feminine or masculine#with Rhaenys now it's just about impossible to imagine it on a man (skill issue)#and fanon names like Laenys have no context so anything is possible!#and then there's names like Aerys and Naerys where a single letter changes the vibe entirely#previous connotations baby!#thoughts#anyway something something DRAGONS HAVE NO GENDER#Valyrian names#asoiaf#house targaryen#house blackfyre#maybe#house velaryon

But also... Andreil on the great British bake off (they have celebrity seasons)
Look, I'm gonna be honest.
It's a disaster in two parts.
Neil is there EXPLICITLY because Stuart found out that he had been asked to go do it because he is technically British. Stuart has asked him to be the bane of Paul Hollywood's existence and is willing to do quite a bit to make the man's life hell.
"He knows what he did." is all Stuart will say on the matter.
Neil agrees to come be a Baker on the stipulation that Andrew also gets to come. Andrew has no interest in baking other than what it can produce for him to eat, he has no desire to do the laborious task of baking himself.
Stuart offers him an Aston.
Andrew agrees.
Neil is a nightmare in the tent. He hates desserts. He hates measuring. He has never done a single prep bake. He has no idea what the desserts are during the technical challenge. He just goes with his gut (his iron gut). He produces three straight desserts that Paul will not let Prue eat for fear that she will just straight up die if she eats it. He is a pile of misery upon consuming all three.
When Neil is kicked off in round one no one is surprised. Paul pats Neil on the back as he leaves the tent and Neil just leans in, "Stuart Hatford sends his regards." he says now that the mic has been removed. Paul Hollywood's tan fades but Neil doesn't look back.
Andrew is a nightmare for a completely different reason and that reason is that he very visibly and honestly does not give a single flying fuck about what he's doing but he's doing quite well. He is the most boring man on camera, zero quips, won't interact with Noel and whoever the fuck is the other presenter by this point, just him doing exactly what the recipe requires and then he always makes a point of grabbing whatever Paul and Prue have judged and taking it all back to his station so that he can eat it. He stares straight into the camera as he eats an entire three tier cake. He dedicates every week he is Star Baker to his inspiration: Kevin Day.
Andrew makes it all the way to the Finals with impressive bakes that he basically just decided on 100% by how much he thinks it would upset Kevin to watch him eat it knowing that he SHOULD be doing weight training for the olympics. ("Weight TRAINING not Weight GAINING Andrew! Do you have to hold up two fingers as you eat the entire thing? Can you at least PRETEND it's not to SPITE me?" Kevin wails as Andrew calls him for the post-credit scene where the star bakers call their families usually but Andrew just uses it so everyone can hear Kevin Day lose his mind on Public Access.)
Andrew gets to the finals and his show stopper....it's immaculate. It's gorgeous. It's a work of art. Paul Hollywood is looking at this feat of modern baking engineering in wonder.
He shakes Andrew's hand before he even tastes it and-
"Stuart Hatford sends his regards."
Paul Hollywood is now nervous to eat this cake. Does he look out at the gathered friends and family of the contestants and see Stuart Hatford? Does he remember what he did?
He eats the cake because show obligations and it tastes as good as it looks but he is oddly silent as Prue talks about it.
Andrew Wins and Paul Hollywood stays exactly one entire party's width away from Neil, Stuart, and Andrew during the entire victory picnic.
Andrew gives his post bake-off speech and flat out says it was kind of boring and he wants to go home to America. The next scene is him driving off with Neil in an Aston Martin.
Edit: Thanks @the-inner-musings-of-a-worm for the idea once again!
#Great British Bake Off x AFTG#AFTG AU#AFTG#Andreil#There is absolutely some outrage about a fucking American winning#People are mad#Andrew is never invited back for any all stars follow-ups#Stuart has to ship that car across the ocean#He still thinks it was worth it to mess with Hollywood#What is Paul Hollywood and Stuart Hatford's past together you may ask?#Perhaps Stuart was a big Mary Berry fan. Perhaps he has sent an almost insane number of letters about this#And if Paul Hollywood woke up numerous times to cherry pie filling on his walls#Stating that Stuart Hatford preferred Mel and Sue?#And not a single detective Paul Hollywood went to would touch it once he gave Stuart's name?#Well that's between Stuart Paul Hollywood and GOD.#Personally I like the whole cast no matter the season#But I am not a man who has all 71 Mary Berry cookbooks and biographies#But you know who might?#Stuart Hatford might#A Foxhole Bake AU

-NEW CHALLENGER ENTERS THE SCENE-
This lovely fellow is another one of Evelyn's creations :) and the most recent too! He is deemed as the "golden child" of her catalogue of children. He follows her every command (he's not the brightest bulb in the shed) and sees her as his mother (she hates that nickname)
#ik his name isn't the most creative but hey it's better than just a letter#tbf his name is actually smt like M4NT5 but Evelyn just calls him that cause she said that name by mistake#and he just answers by that name#also if you know a single thing about praying mantis or just biology stuff in general#please ignore the fatal flaws in his design#this series is a sci-fi/fantasy for goodness sake let me have a funny looking mantis/human hybrid design#faceee art#At Fault series#fun fact he's 4 meters tall :)#original characters

New gith who dis?
Saving her for patch 7 since I'm finally going to run Durge. Haven't settled on a name yet but I'm very into this look.
#sorry body type 1 gith one day I will play you#my issue with the body type 1 heads is every single one including the meager few modded ones that don't alter the noses#have the same pointy chin round face. I'm very faceblind as a person and for the most part I cannot tell them apart#please give me some variety#let my girls have strong jaws and blocky faces#anyway. she/they body type 2 ranger who hails from xa'rok's creche in the tundra#I'll figure out the timeline later but I like my cool tones and if I'm also making her a ranger well. common thread#it would be funny if they were hatch mates just because Xa'rok was a durge once (originally)#bhaal said no wait wrong egg. not THAT one#I think her name is going to be An'zzuk or An's'zuk or something with that letter combination#she feels like a Az/Anz#she was going to be bald but then I discovered the joy of the tail of that braid curling around her shoulder when she spun really fast#RIP the w'war'gaz looking fella I tabled for her#you'll get your time eventually#this gith is definitely bloodthirsty though#also probably going to be ranger/rogue. not me learning how to finally play rogue. UGH#my tavs#technically durge but for consistency#githyanki#also might mess around with the spot patterns but I'm not sure if modded heads support that or if that's a separate thing

has anyone tried loop earplugs for auditory processing issues, especially and specifically while working a retail job? I know originally they were for helping with overstimulation but the noise levels at my job aren’t enough to overstimulate me so I’m not really looking for anything that’s going to muffle things too much. the issue is if there is more than one conversation happening or if we’ve opened the door to the street I completely lose the ability to process what’s being said to me, like I’ll stand there absolutely fighting for my life trying to process the customer spelling their name for me and having to have them repeat each letter four or five times before my brain understands it, or fully checking out of one conversation and into another without noticing it and then having to fight my way back to figure out what the other person said, or even trying to figure out what *i’m* saying if I check out mid-sentence. my manager recommended I try loop so im wondering if anyone else with adhd and auditory processing issues has experience using loop in a retail setting and whether you think it’s worth it or not
#it’s literally so bad I feel like I’m wading through water against the current trying to stay on top of a conversation#I’ve always had some auditory processing issues but if I’m with friends or family I can just be like wait sorry I checked out repeat that?#but at work I’m standing there the customer is spelling their name two letters at a time#I cannot hold onto those letters for long enough to type them into the computer#I ask them to repeat they repeat at the same speed same volume and don’t break it into single letters OR syllable groups#each of which would be easier than two letters at a time#and the only thing that changes in their tone or face is a subtle expression of ‘oh this person is stupid’#IM SORRY OK MY COWORKER JUST LAUGHED ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROOM MY MANAGER JUST YELLED SOMETHING FROM THE BACK#A GROUP OF FRIENDS WALKED PAST OUTSIDE TALKING LOUDLY THE BUS JUST WENT PAST#IM TRYINGGGGGGG

Imagine your f/o noticing that apparently they've texted you/mentioned you so much that now your name automatically shows up on their auto correct.
What's their reaction? Do they smile every time they see it? If it's before yall got together, do they at that moment take in just how much you've impacted their life? Do they begin to realize they have feelings for you? Or does it just fuel their feelings more?
Prosh!p dni
#inspired by me recently noticing that my main f/o's name tends to show up on my autocorrect#with just a single type of the first letter to their name :]#f/o imagines#self shipping community#selfshipping community#self ship community#selfship community

I am once again daydreaming of making my own social media platform and how to make it not give a hoot about American laws (no relation to American soil, I'm European anyway) and be structurally resistant to enshitification through independence and community ownership unfortunately I am one inexperienced programmer with not much spare change to throw at such a gamble so I'm only daydreaming
#sfw#personal#ok to reblog#I wanna minimize costs to minimize the need for it to make money in any way. No appealing to advertisers or investors.#Wikimedia and AO3 have that from what I can tell but they both rely on donations to keep the servers running#(I don't shame them obviously but it's difficult and unreliable especially if you're not as big and well known as them)#I know I'm way out of my depth trying to figure out a way to use servers differently but again only daydreaming#At least I'm not the guy saying I wanna make 'the new PDF' lmao#or the guy firing programmers based on how many lines of code they write and replacing a brand name known to most humans with 1 letter#or the guy suggesting users should be able to 'devowel' articles#or whoever's deciding to replace volunteer translators with AI and remove every single useful feature#or a thousand other bad ideas for making more money and stroking their egos. man I just want a little island of weird internet surviving#and yeah alternatives exist but I don't know how they'll avoid dying or surviving wrong either

Most streamers: *Pronounce El Bailador name wrong*
Me, a mexican: *Heavy sigh*
#I can see why most people say it that way#You pronounce A different from us sometimes lol#But you literally pronounce every single letter on his name the way you normally do#A sounds like the normal pronounciation of a#It's more funny than anything don't take it the wrong way#Undertale yellow#El Bailador#Good character#just hoped he could appear more or had more relevance
