I remember when I was eight and my family first moved to California, we lived in Carson, two blocks from Figueroa Street, which I later learned could take you all the way to downtown Los Angeles. My Dad nicknamed the street "Figgy", so I nominate Figueroa, "Figgy" for short. (We also lived near Sepulveda Boulevard, but "Seppy" never really stuck.)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00716903000683964454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633709080876343913.post-52456461632687171642012-07-09T02:40:06.645-07:002012-07-09T02:40:06.645-07:00What about just "Vector?"

He's always intercepting her life's path, and "Vector" suggests both the "always moving towards danger" and the "math/science intelligence" characteristics that Rae would probably see in Trevor, but really represent them both to some degree. It really seems to fit Masks thematically.<br /><br />But you mentioned it first. I just shortened your version, so if you pick it, you win. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00716903000683964454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633709080876343913.post-43726757961223298472012-07-07T17:52:17.304-07:002012-07-07T17:52:17.304-07:00Harvey - Rabies Vector -> RV -> Harvey ;)Harvey - Rabies Vector -> RV -> Harvey ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633709080876343913.post-37225582076798022942012-07-05T09:03:24.565-07:002012-07-05T09:03:24.565-07:00Also, just to campaign for "Clovis," if ...Also, just to campaign for "Clovis," if you like it but aren't sure how Rae would come up with the name, there are multiple kings named Clovis and a pre-historic culture named Clovis, so there should be something in there that you could have the Coyote remind her of.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ClovisChristopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988517412357391012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633709080876343913.post-35454017934774167332012-07-05T08:55:28.439-07:002012-07-05T08:55:28.439-07:00And, while I'm suggesting synonyms of "gr...And, while I'm suggesting synonyms of "green," how about "Viridian?"Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988517412357391012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633709080876343913.post-11533204078950905932012-07-04T23:09:53.874-07:002012-07-04T23:09:53.874-07:00Going with the green eyes, since, well, Masks alre...Going with the green eyes, since, well, Masks already has thing thing about naming characters after eye color, how about "Vert?"Christopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988517412357391012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5633709080876343913.post-88664119210001717502012-07-04T12:41:17.083-07:002012-07-04T12:41:17.083-07:00Alas, he has green eyes.
