Earn Your Title describes character epithets being earned for good reasons behind it.

...which applies to every epithet ever, right?

We don't need justice when we can forgive. We don't need tolerance when we can love.

Not really. Earn Your Title only applies to those that come from what you did, not who/what you are, where you are from, etc...

To expand on that:

Eric the Red — not an earned epithet, it's based on a physical attribute.

Jaime Lannister, Kingslayer: An earned epithet. He got that epithet because of what he did.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
