Inquiring minds wish to know what other possibilities there were in that list of 65 possibilities :3

Or at least I want to know >_> Just for kicks, really ^_^

Agreed, it would be interesting to see other titles that were considered. :)

Don't forget to add the interpretions and meanings behind the names, that would be awesome ^_^

Perhaps later. The last thing we need right now is to question our decision-making when all the fans say "YOU SHOULD HAVE NAMED IT BITCHES BE CRAZY INSTEAD!'

^ 100% agreed - we do NOT need to justify our name selection so early. We should discuss this during the production process later :)

We're not ranting about the name, are we? :o Well, I know that I wasn't :>

And I'm okay with you not telling us your explanations, devs. :)

But... How about you give us some nice pictures og Katja and Lena? I can't get out that picture where Katja is puuting a sock on her leg out of my head...

I'm sorry if you thought I was picking on the name, I am merely curious, and I do respect every decision you make, as it is not in my place to question anything about them.

I'm not, I really want to know, just so I can get a little better picture on the devs minds :twisted:

Yes I do want, but you are right, I don't NEED that, but I really want to, just for fun ^_^ (I think)

Please tell me it WAS :lol:

I feel like that wouldn't give the right sort of connotation about the game

Actually, from what I've been hearing, that was essentially what the name "Katawa Shoujo" amounted to in Japanese. Poor 4LS. But yeah, I get what you guys mean :) and I think you're doing the right thing. This is the name that YOU, the creators, felt best fit your work. As a songwriter, I hold a lot of respect for that. We have a saying here in America that's used both literally and ironically: "What's in a name?" With the unspoken answer being, "Both everything and nothing."

Since when have we had that as a saying in America? That's a new one to me. Still a very valid point though.

Uhhh Isn't "What's In a Name?" By Shakepeare? Romeo ans Juliet iirc.

But really, a name can be anything or just named for the hell of it. For instance I know a song called x_x_xX. Whats in that name? Who knows?

Bitches Be Crazy was Kosher's gag name suggestion. Mine was Six Nuts In Search Of A Good Screw (later amended to seven).

There is also "Schnitzel Girls" and "Geistig Mädchen" to be considered as well :p

Those are pretty good actually, better then the other two gag-names at least.
Less solipsism, more generally cathartic ramblings.
