[Opinions] Re: Moonbeam and Tangerine
Unfortunately, Moonbeam would be the name I'd pick as a nickname for a character who is spaced out on LSD all the time. Tangerine is a fruit: Trivial concept, suggests (homo)sexuality, and has an ending that is normally feminine (-een). I'd be embarrassed for a guy named Tangerine.Sorry to be so blunt - but I'm dead serious, and I'm actually not sure you are.

TangerinesTangerines got their name from the geographic adjective, tangerine, denoting someone from Tangier, Morocco. Residents of the city are still called Tangerines.

okayThat's good to know.
Though people like myself still don't know it - they'll just think of a fruit... their opinion is probably not of any consequence.
