[Opinions] Re: Webster, Wystan, Wolfgang
Webster isn't terrible, but the ster ending was something that got tacked onto people's names for fun back in the 90s. Mike-ster, Rickster, Megster, Jensster, like that. Also, a favorite TV show of mine when I was little was Webster, which was very similar to Diff'rent Strokes in that it was about a black kid (both of them played by undersized actors) being adopted by a white family.Wystan, well, it makes me think of a car part for some reason, and Dristan nose spray, and also is easily misunderstood as Weston, which is pretty trendy right now.Wolfgang would definitely take a certain kind of person to pull off. It's just very dominating and distracting. It also sounds like a wolf pack.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
