[Opinions] Re: Merlin
in reply to a message by Jagoda
I prefer Myrddin, or Emrys!
I was at school with a girl Merlin - randy blonde party animal on with whom I did not get - which always confuses me.
Galahad ... all that symbolism about male virginity and sacred chalices and whatnot! And to my non-medieval ears it sounds too close to Galadriel, giving it the same, and equally undeserved, gender-bender vibe as Merlin.
