I remember asking this before. Maybe someone could use this eventually.
Would something happen if a character was named after someone like Florence or Gravity? Maybe someone who doesn't know who Streiter was names one of their kids that. Would he be picked on because of what Streiter did?

I think it'd depend much on who the character met. If it was a dog named Florence who wanted to join the Tempest Pack, then it would perhaps be a little awkward xD I guess Brooke most likely would take it as a bad joke. It could be fun if a character was named after Gravity since no one knows what happened to him. It would be like "Gravity is back!", and then they realize it's just a puppy... I don't know, I guess there could come some fun out of it, but I don't think using those names could cause much drama :b

That awkward moment Denim has cubs (lul like that'd ever happen) and he names one Florence...
But yeah, in all seriousness, I've seen some sites where you are not allowed, under any circumstances, to copy other people's names. I get people wouldn't want the same names of characters at the same time (for example, it'd be confusing to have two Ryu's, two Celia's, etc. running around)
But... I think once your character dies/leaves, you lose all ownership of that name (like someone else used the name Orion before I did on CR). Although it may be confusing to have two Florences one day, it could make things pretty funny to share the name of one evil bitch.
I think it would affect how people would roleplay with the character, but not much. Maybe as a passing reference: "...you're Gravity? Were your parents high?"
But yeah. What's in a name anyway? I would totally make a Florence who is a goody goody two shoes. It would be hilarious XD

LMFAO A DOG NAMED FLORENCE JOINING TEMPEST IM CRY.
seriously i think brooke would just stare at the dog and be like, ".... okay you can be the omega."
its funny you brought this up, cuz I was considering naming one of Brooke's new pups after Gravity, to kind of show her respect to him still. That didn't end up happening obviously but you know.

Maybe Gus could do that one day. If he ever does have kids either Brooke could make a request or he knows about Gravity. I actually doubt that he'll ever have kids though.

If Valk has kids, she could name one Gravity. He might even look like his grandfather. -Nods sagely- XD
