[Opinions] Re: Tucker
in reply to a message by Cake or Death
Yuck, I hate it. Do you like it? It would feel very out of character for you to like Tucker.
Jezebel is awful and is not useable. Were the parents ignorant or were they being deliberately provocative? Or maybe they didn't think the association was important?

No, I don't like it. I was reminded of it by reading about Tucker Carlson.
Back in the 90s, one of my son's friends was adopted and a boy younger than he had been adopted, as well. The woman who had adopted both boys told me that the younger one was named Tucker because that's what the woman who had given birth to him wanted him to be named, and she made that part of the conditions for the adoption. Imagine being forced to use Tucker.
I know nothing of the parents of Jezebel. It was a call at work, and I took the child's name because she was the patient.

Rather than not adopt the child, I'd have readily agreed to name him Tucker, but I'd also have given him the mn of my choice and used it all the time.
