    I've used this name in public as a new identity. I think once my kids know i used it as a form of self identity, they'd either partially adopt it or choose their own name as well.

      They'll have to type out the unicode galaxy on every form.

          Hopefully they inherit the psychopomp job too and it is a career resilient to AI and self-driving cars. If Waymo works in the Underworld, they will be looking for new career options like every other Z and younger.

          If they want the job, of course. I'm not one of those old school escorts of the dead that insists the kids follow in parents' footsteps.

            My kids call me Boursin Cheese because they couldn't pronounce my name (or chose not to)

            They get what they give.

              Assuming you're American, based on your username and instance. Hope that helps.

                My kid would genuinely love it, it's right up his alley in terms of humor. My sense of humor is generally quite a bit darker, but I thought of it and it made me chuckle so I used it.

                I just asked him what he thought of the username pooptart and he started giggling and went on an ADHD fueled set of concepts that ended with "what if you pooped a car?" But by then my own ADHD was only barely listening.

                  They would probably find it pretty cringe

                  Think about it though. In like 100 years, the irony will wear off, and you'll have Millers, Carpenters, Smiths, and fucking Gigachads. It'd work, it just might take awhile.

                    Eh, it's pretty descriptive of me but I wonder if my kids would be the same. They'll be monotheistic, most likely at least, but yappy/argumentative is not a given. 🤷

                                  During early life, they'd like it. As teenagers they'd hate it. In their adult years they'd come back around to liking it again.
