HelpRe: Arthur
in reply to a message by wheelbarrow4
Ahh, Arthur, one of my oldest loves. So gentle and handsome, and comes with the adorable nicknames Art or Artie! A perfect name in my opinion.
I actually don't think of either the aardvark or the king, honestly. I think of my favourite 3rd grade teacher, whose name was actually Gerald, but who looked almost exactly like my favourite book character at that time - a Victorian gentleman-scientist named Arthur. I conflated the two in my little brain and created the perfect amalgam of a kindly, intelligent man.
