Harry Naming Things

<< < (8/9) > >>

Quantus:
Well, offhand it really pissed Nicodemus off when Harry called him Nicky.  Not a supernatural thing methinks, but worth including for the sake of completeness. 

More to follow.



PS. Octokong.  Classic!

el_nino:
i think theres a WOJ that harry starts calling her karrin after she agrees to help find maggie/become her guardian incase.
similarly with billy, in turn coat he acknowledges him as a grown guy who can take care of himself and starts calling him will.

also, do the ppl who believe harry has a unique abillity/power to name things think this will have some sort of an inverse effect on bjorn bjorgunnarson, the scandinavian warden who he doesnt refer to by the same name twice??

Not so much, UnNaming would be harder I would think/hope, just like UnMaking a spell. 

KurtinStGeorge:
In Skin Game, Harry shortens the name of Nic's new goon from Squire Jordan to simply Jordan.  It might be seen as a prelude to removing Jordan from service to Nicodemus.

Possible I suppose, but I dont really think simply dropping an honorific would qualify, any more than omitting the Dr. from Butters or the Sgt. from Murphy.
