Re: Leila and Twinkle (seriously)
in reply to a message by araslanka
If I were Twinkle, I'd be super jealous of my sister. Though, Rosebud Cherry-Blossom is far too much flower in one name for my tastes. Why not Leila Rosebud and Twinkle Cherry-Blossom? Just to balance things out a bit or something.
Also, I misread Twinkle as 'Twinkie' about three times before I saw what it really said.
And of course, Twinkle does start with 'twink' which has a few rather negative associations (https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/twink#Etymology_3). Poor kid.

Honestly, I have no idea...
I'd never heard to those uses for 'twink'. Maybe because here twink is the name of that liquid paper you use to cover up mistakes made with pen, it doesn't get used as these slang terms?
Or I could just not have heard of them.
Either way, it's a terrible name.
