Everyone's got a name or at least something close to it. But do you guys know what your names actually mean, or the reason you were given that name? We give pokémon names to set them apart, but does the way you name yours mean anything special? I just named this guy Lemon Twist since he reminds me of striped lemon candy.

[It’s been a boring day, for once Killua didn’t feel like doing something insane. Instead he’s just laying on his Dunesparce.]

It's interesting when you think about it: someone or you yourself has been given this word to identify by and it could have some really deep mean behind it. It could be something that a person thought sounded cute but in the end it's pretty sucky for you. For example, someone could have named their kid after a word that sounds cool yet it could mean horse-shit in the language its from.

I sort of lucked out with the way my parents named me and my siblings, but it has me wondering about everyone else. So tell me what your names mean.

[That brings a bright smile over France's face.]

I suppose it would be, wouldn't it? Gaul and Rome and those from that period are more like parental figures. I have to admit: I've always somewhat envied humans for having such varied and interesting family lines.

[He waves a hand in a broad motion, eyes twinkling.]

But I needn't envy something I already possess. Thank you for this.

[France's eyebrows go up. He's suitably impressed.]

Most family businesses have a scion of sorts, but he must be quite up in age. You don't worry he's going to fall behind on the times?

[France frowns slightly, not understanding.]

What do you mean by advancements? Technological, or...?

So, he's a true inventor-type: concepts beyond the end of the world but something of a space case?

[France chuckles.]

I know a few people like that.
