Help[Opinions] Re: What if this happened in real life?
in reply to a message by Rose Yuen
I don't have religion and live in a largely secular society, I don't feel I can comment on this. On one hand, this is an insight into religious mindset for me, but also... I find everything...a bit... erm...strange? I'm sorry. But it's all so alien to me. Why would you name your child something because you thought your god told you to and then feel you had to 'make a plan to mitigate trauma'? I'm confused. That said, I'm not religious but I try to respect religious people, maybe I'm just uneducated and don't get it.
For what it's worth, I think the name Lo-ruhamah is neat as hell and have it on my list of names for characters in case it ever fits anything I write. The meaning of 'not pitied' is just kinda neat tbh, or 'not loved'...or 'doesn't need to be loved'?, you could spin it to be empowering, and the puritan vibes (as a European)... great for a spooky colonial something.
The rest though, I can't speak on it, it's strange for me, as someone not part of a religion I have no opinion really, but I don't think people should be naming their children names they think may harm them or cause them mental distress.
