Family Feud is a trope, but literally every single link to it is in reference to the game show, which is at Series.Family Feud. I don't see the difference between the trope and Feuding Families, so I think the Family Feud trope should be renamed or cut. What say you?

Difference is that Feuding Families is two families duking out as in trying to wipe out other. Family Feud is two families take competion too seriosly. Altough I agree with rename, it soudns more like normal argue inside family in first glance.

Considering it's a relative stub, I'm tentatively agreeing.

I think the name should probably be something less general, because upon examination, it's a really specific trope! It's not just about two families in conflict with one another, but also involving a multigenerational echo of a prior conflict! Seems to be a perfectly legit trope, but we should probably avoid giving it a name that could apply to very general situations, like Family Feud.

Blood Feud might work. Also, bumpty bump.

[up]Hmm, sure looks that way, except that this trope might be a Lighter and Softer variation?

Family Rival?

Isn't that basically what it is? One family is rivals with another family?

Or Family Rivalry - the trope seems more about the situation than a particular rival.

I like Family Rivalry. I agree that it needs a rename, as tropes should not share a name with a work.

Use Blood Feud when it is two different families, Family Feud when the fight is WITHIN one family and Family Feud Series for the show.

The game show is already in the Series namespace, which is where it should be if we're going to have anything else with the name "family feud".

Bump. Family Rivalry may work. Any other suggestions? Should we crowner-ize this?

Anyone? Bueller?

How does I added crowner?

Crowner is hooked. Add any other rename options.

No change in voting activity in 4 days, with Family Rivalry having no down-votes. I think it's time to rename this.

Rename done. Trope is now at Family Rivalry, TV show is now at just Family Feud.

Now how do I kill the crowner?

Crowner is locked. Locking the thread.
