[Opinions] Re: Mordecai
in reply to a message by Clippy
Anything with "mor" in it sounds morbid. I think there's some kind of root somewhere that means death or something.
And then there's Voldemort I guess. Ooh, what a perfect villain name! (Sorry, I'm still OMGHP.)
It's a neat name nevertheless. I strongly dislike it because I am really, really grossed out by "Kai" and "Cai," but I'd be quite glad to meet one if he didn't go by either of those. And for some reason it seems really Jewish to me.

Kai/Cai
I don't mind the names, but I think I'd me more likely to NN a hypothetical Mordecai 'Mordy' or something. (Though I'm really not much of a NN person, so if I were to have a little Mordecai, that'd probably be almost exclusively what I'd call him.)
(And how the heck did I manage to not pick up on the whole "mor/mort/death" thing? I seriously forgot about it. And I'm a huge Potter fan, too. ;D)
