Holy cow.

You're really new around here, aren't you?
My favourite names include Morpheus, Horatio, Evening, and Ruxandra. I've had plenty of people tell me that they're horrible. I've had friends IRL tell me that if I ever call a daughter Evening, the only present she'll ever get from them is a jar of night air.
If you think my demeanor has been 'impacted' (impact isn't a verb, by the way) by your opinion, you haven't been paying much attention. I am, at the most, mildly annoyed at the fact that you don't seem to understand that your narrow view of the world may not even slightly correspond with mine--or with my theoretical children's.
Maybe the part where you've been a dismissive, ignorant asshole that has my dander up a bit, but I'm certainly not crying at my computer screen right now. I'm sorry to disappoint you.

What does being new around here have anything to do with my ability to express an opinion on a name, an opinion you requested? I merely stated that if you did not want opinions, you should not ask for them. Harmless response, really. Not everyone has the same flavour of names which is expected, but the bottom line is I gave you my opinion and you have showed how poorly you handle honest opinions. I feel my time has been wasted and I will no longer respond to any of your posts.

It's relevant because if you truly believe that Array has no desire to hear honest criticism, then clearly you know absolutely nothing about her.

No. You gave your opinion in an excessively dramatic and somewhat inflammatory manner, and Array responded accordingly.

It wasnt your opinion that was objected to it was the way you expressed that opinion.

Good, because your sheer dumbassery, sir or madam, has wasted mine.
Good day.

Actually, I was wondering if I could get them to make that same promise to me...
That would be nice, wouldn't it?
I'm all for dissenting opinions, but it'd be nice if we could play nice like grownups.

As a writer, I would just like to point out that impact is indeed a verb. Look it up.
