Brian has other bf/fuck buddy named Tyler

[lanbeo.livejournal.com]

I read a lot of fics in which Brian had another boyfriend or a fuck buddy, and coincidentally many writers named him Tyler (even Justin has a boyfriend name Tyler in some fics) I don't find the fault in that, just curious, why do you authors like that name so much? Is there any special meaning in this name?

Edit: many comments add but all about the name "Britin" LOL Please if anyone know, speak aloud.

From the canon fact that Brian's middle name starts with 'A'

Then fandom decided to go with something that's 1) vaguely Irish and 2) is a nod to QAF UK (actor who played prototype Brian). The second reason is also why some fans speculated that in the scene where Brian and Justin discuss how to name their mansion, Justin said "Brighton," since Brighton is often called "the gay capital of Britain." But Britin apparently caught on better?

I always thought that the answer of Justin was more a reference to the movie "Wuthering Heights" than the city itself, but...am I the only one in the fandom who likes "Britin"? Just wondering, lol♥

I like Britin. I think it's unique and it shows Justin in his romantic way. He's silly like that after all this time LOL.

Heheheh, I guess this makes...two of us who likes Britin, lol!!!

And yeah Justin is the most romantic unconventional amazing man I've ever seen *drooling for him*;)

Edit because I commented without take a look at your icon...awwwwwwwwwwww such a great emotional memory, love you:))))))))

Just passing through, but all this time, I thought Britin was combination of BRIan and JusTIN. LOL!

You're not the only one! And I will continue to think that no matter what other people say :D.

Damn queer !!! (Cause Damn Straight just sounds to odd on THIS com). I never imagined that it was anything other than the combination of the two. Then again that's what happens when you have a 13 year old daughter and EVERY couple gets a couple name

Oh, it totally was. That's obvious by the way Brian takes a second to *get* it and then says it as two distinct (and slightly sarcastic lol) syllables: "BRI-TIN"

I guess there might have been a secondary nod to Brighton, though.

Another fandom question why is justin's roommate or friend in new york named September in most fanfics

[darla-isabelle.livejournal.com]

That's because he tells Brian that he found a place to live in New York with a friend of Daphne's. September is the only of Daphne's friends that we know by name (1.19), so I guess using her is the easiest solution for most writers.

I may be 100% wrong, but did want to add why I think most people tend to give the name Tyler, esp when referring to a bf/bed buddy to Brian, because they usually (not always) think of Justin (Taylor) and his last name is similar to this first name, and/or it comes to their head quicker since it is similar. Maybe also it's a common name when looking it up but not too common. Although I'm not certain, this would be my guess. Esp the first initial guess.
