[Opinions] Re: Raven
in reply to a message by as
The first time I heard Raven used for a name was a soap opera character. And she wasn't a nice soap opera character. So that's colored the name for me ever since. If I liked the name at all I could work to overcome it, as I almost have with Eden. But ravens scare me a little* so I'm not going to put in the effort. But at least it wasn't spelled creatively. Or was it? Do you know?
* We have many around our house. I swear they are so smart they've figured out the cross walk sign at the local intersection. My dh is with me in the car and sees it too so it's not just me. They. Scare. Me. Their bada$$ black leather jackets don't help.

Do you mean Raven from Edge of Night?!

Yes. I didn't follow that soap very closely -- I was more of an All my Children / General Hospital buff. But a lot of my friends did so I picked up on a few of the story lines. It's been years since I've thought of any of them. :-)

I was a kid and my mom watched EoN. It was on after I got home from school so I followed it for a while. All I remember now is Raven getting mad at Schuyler before their wedding, and her knocking the groom figurine off her wedding cake with an evil grin. It was one of the funnier soaps, I think. That was the first time I heard Raven as a name, too... but I liked her.

No, I don't know and wish I did. Hopefully it's just Raven!
