when you pick it out and not your parents you can get names that are cool now and not cool 40 years ago. sucks to suck, git gud. get with the program. evolve or perish, scrub.
i am literally called "Stryxnine Pulsatrix" for three reasons:
-
Strix a genus of owls (Strigidae).
-
Strychnine is a rat poison that a trainer nearly killed his marathon runner with. Watch this horrifying Jon Bois video about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4AhABManTw
-
Pulsatrix is a genus of spectacled owls, named as such because of the colouration of their feathers around their eyes making them look like they're wearing glasses.
A secret 4th reason: it's a hella sick witchy name, and it makes me feel sexy as fuck
