6/10 It annoys me And before you rate, let me tell you the history behind the name: The son of Zeus and Aegina; the husband of Endies and most notably, the father of Peleus and Telamon and thus the grandfather of Akhilleus (Achilles) and Aias (Ajax). Aeakus banished Peleus and Telamon because they murdered their half-brother, Phokos (Phocos). The people who were ruled by Aeakus became known as the Myrmidons because, after a plague had decimated the island of Aegina, Zeus repopulated it by turning ants into men and women. Myrmidon is a variation on the word for Ant. After his death Aeakus became one of the three judges of the Underworld along with Minos and Rhadamanthus. His name may also be rendered as Aiakos, Aiacos, Aecus or Aekus. So there, I do put some thought into my names. |

9/10 Here is a short story about Dorian Gray: The Picture of Dorian Gray is a novel that follows the life of Dorian Gray. The story begins when Dorian is introduced to a man named Basil at a party. Basil falls in love with Dorian and secretly paints a picture of him. Lord Henry sees the painting and thinks it is beautiful, but Basil is not satisfied with it and stows it in the attic. Lord Henry negatively influences and corrupts Dorian, who was at first a good man, and eventually Dorian says he would give anything, even his soul, for the picture to grow old instead of him. Dorian gets his wish, and in the deal he sells his soul. He continues to lead a hedonistic lifestyle under the influence of Lord Henry, while never aging, and the picture, hidden in the attic, ages and shows the corruption of his soul. One day, Basil takes Dorian to the attic and he takes out the picture. When Dorian sees how grotesque it has become, he becomes furious and stabs Basil. He then takes the painting and slashes it, thus stabbing himself. The story ends with Dorian lying on the ground, aged now, and the painting back to the way it was in the beginning. |

^ 9/10 ... I love Greek Mythology but I hate names that I can't pronounce. Why is everybody giving stories for their names? You know what I'm going to give my story too... It's really, really short though. My first name is Jamie-Leanne and my last name O'Neil. So there is my wonderful and very interesting story. :rolleyes: |

lol people 9/10 I dunno I just like it: Lily b/c i felt like it, and May b/c of my cousin, happy? OH yes, and Jamie, awhile back you gave daine propes for originality, but I am here to take those back. That's right, her name is not original! It is merely copied from a book series entitled (I think) The Wild Magic Quartet. I'm not sure, but it is copied! hehe, I love the books, so I know, whaha |
