Not Thriving: Cold Name Mole

Has existed since 2018, but there are only 8 wicks. That means Starving on Wick, so it's not performing well enough. Considering we've been merging pages to The Mole lately, this is one candidate I'd totally merge.

Oh wait, does it count if it's less than four years? Well, it's still 3-years old, underwicked, and merging it with that trope seems easy. Feel free to close and wait for a year if needed, I can always make sure here.

Opening. I dunno, this looks like a name trope to me but it's neither indexed as such nor does it explicitly say so.

I think this is just a coincidence. There are a lot of people with cold-themed names that are not The Mole, while there are also a ton of moles that don't have cold-themed names.

You could maybe make a trope out of ice-themed names foreshadowing or indicating villainy in general, but the mole thing seems awfully specific.

In that case, move any examples accordingly (if they're not covered already) and cut.

Must have been a rogue launch.

EDIT: Nothing important, but I looked on the YKTTW page for Cold-Name Mole, and the sponsor's last edit for that was in 2014. It was launched to the wiki in 2018.

I see someone already did the wicks and Gaston Rabbit did the discussion page notice, so I have done the redirecting and examples. Now closing as done.
