Crown Description:

How should we fix the trope and related pages? Fail O Suckyname is often mixed with Unfortunate Name. Fail O Suckyname is supposed to be a subtrope of Unfortunate Name that only applies to a superhero's chosen name, or if a character willingly chooses an ugly name.
   17 (Yeas:17 Nays:0)
Rename to make it clear that it's a name chosen by the character. New name will be decided by another crowner. (Note: Fail O'Suckyname is a catchy trope name and could be re-cycled; Unfortunate Name could be using it.)
   7 (Yeas:9 Nays:2) 4.50 : 1
Improve description. It's written as Example As Thesis and focuses on superheroes, while the trope's much broader in fiction.
   2 (Yeas:7 Nays:5) 1.40 : 1
Unfortunate Name should be for names viewed unfortunate or embarrassing in-universe.
   -5 (Yeas:3 Nays:8)
Merge Fail O Suckyname into Unfortunate Name;
  • there's no need to have a separate page for "the same trope but for superheroes"
  • we would lose distinction when the hero willingly chooses horrible name and when it is the parents' doing/just unfortunate surname
   -9 (Yeas:0 Nays:9)
Do nothing.
