After my wife had given birth to our baby, the nurse asked me, "Do you have a name yet?" Beaming with pride, I responded, "Yes. Steve!" She giggled, "Awww! That's a lovely name!" I replied, "Thanks!"

"But what do you think we should call the baby?"

Genuinely curious - what is stopping people from leaving Eth to a competitor (to name a few, Algorand, Solana, Poly, etc.) given the cost of transacting?

Please don’t shoot this down as β€˜anti-eth’ or β€˜complaining about gas fees’. I’m just curious what keeps other people here holding Eth? I am basically holding mine until fees drop and I can exit or the roll ups save me.

The other chains are more readily scalable, generally quicker and cheaper. Yes they aren’t as β€˜big’ but, let’s be honest, for most of our purposes that is pretty irrelevant.

Self given "Native names?"

I'm wondering your thoughts on self given native names.

For example, I was given a native name at toddler age, Pretty Dancing Girl. But as we usually do, I outgrew it. (Not much of a dancer now haha. Nor too pretty LOL)

I'm sadly distant from any native family (save for my mom) and not connected with my tribe (oglala) as I live in Alaska.

Due to a very beautiful lucid dream I had, I adopted the name Bird Woman. Which fits me greatly. I am very connected with birds. I raise birds, I feed wild songbirds, I go outside and they land on my hands. I've had hawks dive low and fly beside my car.

But I don't want to disrespect my ancestors by doing this, even though in my beliefs, I spoke to them through lucid dreaming. (And while I believe that is 100% real, I'm always open to the fact it may not be, hence my asking this question.)

I'm unsure because if my understanding is correct, natives didn't name themselves. Please correct me if wrong

Pepino PSA: Can we all spell her name correctly, please? It’s Hillary with two Ls. Not one L. Plain basic American spelling regular Hillary Lynn Hayward-Thomas is her birth given name.

Calling her β€œHilary” is giving her actual non exotic non unique birth name an exotic spin that muddies the waters and could lead someone to think that her birth given name did have a Spanish influence from the start, which it did not. It’s just Hillary.

Please and thank you.

Edit: I’m all for the nickname variations, btw. I’m not in anyway against those, I use them too. The need for proper spelling of her name only applies to when we are referring to her by her birth given name, so that it is clear that she was not given an exotic variation of the American name Hillary at birth.

What is the wackiest name you've ever given an OC?

Currently I'm in the design phase for my OCβ€”who will be the Main Character of a Fanfiction that will be hundreds of chapters long, if not well into one thousand. The MC's current name is "Sol(e)". Originally I was debating between Sol or Sole, so I described it to some Discord buddies as Sol(e). However, I now unironically adore the name even though it was special characters in it. I wouldn't be surprised if an eccentric name like this turns off potential readers and Grammar enthusiasts. But I really like the way it looks.
