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.

You did name your attacks: Rock, Paper, Scissors.

[venturesomely]

Oh! That's true! I came up with those on the spot, though.

[killer_sweets]

That's what i mean you don't really think about it. If you had a son, you'd probably just name him Go. Without giving it much thought.

[venturesomely]

That's not a bad name.

[killer_sweets]

...Don't name your son Go, I will punch if you do.

[venturesomely]

Huh, why? I really think it's a nice name.

[killer_sweets]

It is not a good name for a kid.

[venturesomely]

[ Didn't Killua's family have some peculiar names for his siblings...? Ah, well. ]

What would you name your kid, Killua?

[killer_sweets]

I'd name them something cool, that would catch everyone attention. Like Nor'easter.

[venturesomely]

[ ....

This face ]

[killer_sweets]

[sigh]

It's sort of like a hurricane but different.

[venturesomely]

I think that'd be really fitting, Killua!

[killer_sweets]

Told you, it's cool and attention getting like a name should be. Unlike Go.

[venturesomely]

[ RUDE. Gon feels a bit irritated at that ] Ah-- But, Go Freecss would sound nice! I've never heard of Nor'easter until now...

[killer_sweets]

It sounds a chants! That's make Nor'easter more unique no one can say the have that name.

[venturesomely]

But, no one else is named Go, either! I think....

[killer_sweets]

Hmph, I guess so. Why can't we just go with the more creative name.

[Why are you giving simple names to our future your children, Gon. Killua is just trying to help.]

[venturesomely]

We?

[ SINCE WHEN WERE WE HAVING CHILDREN, KILLUA? ]

[killer_sweets]

Uh...You'll have a kid and I'll have a kid, so we.

[Yep, smooth. Gon will never know.]

[venturesomely]

[ Gon laughs. He gets it! And he does like the idea of it. ] I think you'd be really great with kids, Killua.

[killer_sweets]

Why do you say that? [THANK THE HEAVENS FOR THE CHANGE OF SUBJECT]

[venturesomely]

Because, I've seen you around Alluka! [ He'll bring it up later when you least expect it, Killua. That's how Gon ticks. ]

[killer_sweets]

Oh! Well, I had to take good care of her, she needs loads of love and care. It's what she deserves.

[He is going to combust from embarrassment when that happens. ]

[venturesomely]

That's what I mean. Did you guys get to travel a lot? I bet she had a lot of fun with you.

[killer_sweets]

I technically haven't left, but last time my memories caught up, she was happy. I know we're really far away from where we left you with Ging.
