There’re a lot of possible etymologies for Robin Hood but my favorite is that ‘Robin’ is a play on words on ‘robbing’ and ‘Hood’ is a nickname for a highwayman or a bandit. Because it means that "Robin Hood” would be the medieval equivalent of “Stealing McStealface”.

I do not want my gravestone claim to fame to read, “I helped name Boaty McBoatface.”
I’m working on it…

Hanni fact #366.
Will and Clarice enter online contests for naming inanimate objects. It is childish and immature, but also lighthearted and whimsical.
In the recent past, they were participants in the Boaty McBoatface, Sweepy McSweepface, and Trashy McTrashface campaigns for a boat, street sweeper, and garbage truck respectively.
...My suggestions were ignored...
Clarice: Because your suggestions would give you away...
Will: You cannot make references to Dante or cannibalism and expect Jack to ignore them!

Okay I never realized just how truly obnoxious the TRR MC actually was until I replayed #LoveHacks, whose MC shares faces with the TRR MC. This entire playthrough I was just waiting for the MC to be plucky and unserious and annoying and qUiRkY and I had to keep unbracing myself because the #LoveHacks MC, while flawed, is actually rather well-adjusted and mature, whereas the TRR MC will interrupt a ceremony to call the crown regent a big meany bad man, name a boat christened in her daughter’s honor “Boaty McBoatface”, and obsess over fancy hats for seven whole books + a holiday special.
