[Opinions] Re: Jinx
in reply to a message by New_Chloe
I knew a cat named Jinx. Perfect fit.
I also think there is a couple of Marvel Comic characters with this name (or related name). It fits in that genre too.
However, on a person I don't find it pleasant. A nickname... sure. But, where I live... the nickname jinx would mean that you always make things go wrong.
Jinks might fly - but Jinx means that something bad happened, or is about to happen. Not a nice connotation for a baby (or adult).
