...too much for a first name?

It sounds like an energy company to me, sorry.

A very good stripper though.

It's a little "out there" for me (I chose pretty plain names for my DC), but each to their own!

Like a PP, I also think of the Electra complex, which is gross, thanks Freud. Also, Electra, boss battle in Streets of Rage 2 Grin showing my age there though, won't be a problem for her I'm sure.

Exotic dancer

Stripper.

It's kind of a Vegas showgirl/stripper name.

What about Allegra? Similar but a bit less...be-tasselled.

It's awful and I immediately think of The Electra Complex.

JayAlfredPrufrock · 12/06/2021 19:17

I love it.

Brave. But fabulous
