I'm white so she wouldn't base my name on ethnicity, she'd probably go with Tr*nny Girlman

Her trans character in Hogwarts Legacy was Sirona Ryan so you’re not that far off.

dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 10 pts · 1y

SIRona RYAN

Basically like saying “hey she used to be a man!!!!”

uuldika@lemmy.ml · 12 pts · 1y (3 replies)

she actually did that for the "trans" character in the Hogwarts game.

Sirona Ryan. I shit you not.

I'm not native English and I don't know enough gay lingo. What's wrong with Sirona Ryan? Need answers so I can laugh with you guys

uuldika@lemmy.ml · 13 pts · 1y (1 reply)

"Sir" is in her first name, and her last name is also a boy name.

xx3rawr@sh.itjust.works · 10 pts · 1y

Thank you. That kicked out "My Shirona" whenever I read the name.

Tranny Girlman the abused and hated house elf, that everyone thinks is weird and creepy because (and this is always mentioned when Rolling writes about T.G.) HE wears a dress and makes everyone uncomfortable.

i mean she wasn't far off when she named the Asian character. Cho Chang if you didn't know (yeah it doesn't even make sense). clearly named so only because she knew they would never publish that name.

Gladaed@feddit.org · 2 pts · 1y (1 reply)

I never associated Cho with a ching Chong China man.

pyre@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 1y

it's barely a variation on it, and also doesn't make sense as a name because it consists of two common family names from two different Asian countries, Korea and China. if you'd like to reach, you might argue that both names come from either China or Korea with less common romanization of one of the names but it's still two family names.

but we already know through several examples that she doesn't give a fuck when it comes to other cultures so it's most likely that she thought of the phrase above and changed it a little so the editors wouldn't have to tell her.

it's the same reason she didn't use the name Tyrone Escapedslave for the black guy and settled for Kingsley fucking Shacklebolt.

Really? I don't know many Brits who have a bad opinion of the Dutch. I certainly don't; I've never met a Dutch person I didn't like.

Comes of them being conquered by William of Orange back in the day.

Billy the who now?

rbos@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 1y (2 replies)

The Anglo-Dutch wars. William of Orange landed troops in London in 1688 and took the throne with Mary II. It's more complicated than that, but it was a whole Thing. Charles II died, leaving James II in charge, but Catholicism was on the way out, and conveniently, William of Orange, a Protestant, was married to Mary II.

The undercurrent of anti-Dutch sentiment started back then still has remnants in the language. See "going Dutch" "Dutch courage" "Dutch treat" "Dutch uncle". :)

I'm mostly teasing. It's more funny than serious.

Hossenfeffer@feddit.uk · 3 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Hrrrm. But, going Dutch and Dutch courage don't have any specifically anti-Dutch connotation in modern usage and I've never heard of a Dutch treat or a Dutch uncle. At least you chaps aren't French!

rbos@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 1y

Amen. About the only thing that unites Quebec with the rest of Canada is a mutual distaste for the French.

There wouldn't be a dick joke. You'd be a disgusting monster, preying on children and murdering people, and you'd be portrayed as the ugliest and fattest human ever. Wearing a beret and eating baguette, to subtly hint at your frenchiness. Because J.D. Rowingboat hates trans people so much, she's willing to enter alliances with self proclaimed fascists.
