It appals me that some people are trying to milk darlenne's success in order to facilitate getting darlene in the lead
These are 2 separate options

    yeah lots of people wanted to have their names win

    @jinx your poll isn't even official
    • User icon
      it's an opinion poll buddy
    • User icon
      it's not even that representative of what the population wants as it isn't limited to darlenne/darlene voters

      anyone can vote in it
    • User icon
      therefore it's even more representative because every darflen user has a word
    • User icon
      no it isn't because it's not a decisive split between darlenne voters whether darlenne or darlene should be the name

      it's more like a tiebreaker poll made for a situation where there was no tie
    • User icon
      there was no tie because of the lack of options

      bruh just vote other (although paradock does need to increase poll limits to like 16)
  • User icon
    I think paradock stated if darlenne wins, whichever of darlenne/darlene is more popular will become the name, not necessarily darlenne itself

      do you want your vote count to drop to 3 @cheesewhisk3rs

      this is not how voting works

      paradette would win if people that wanted Darlene voted otherwise
    • User icon
      then they SHOULD HAVE VOTED DARLENE NOT DARLENNE

      if darlenne wins, the baby will be called darlenne. if darlene, WHICH IS IN "OTHER", wins, the baby will be called darlene. if paradette wins because darlenne voters switch to darlene, which is located at other and not darlenne in the official poll, then so be it!

      why do you want darlenne so much it's literally adding an extra n for no valid reason
    • User icon
      tl;dr if you vote darlenne you get darlenne, if you wanted darlene go vote for darlene in other.
      if this makes paradette win idc it's a democracy these are the rules
      your poll isn't representative of what others want (e.g. qxva prefers darlene over darlenne but still voted paradette).
      using darlenne's current win as darlene propaganda isn't good

      i could ask you "why do you want joanne so much it's literally got barely no resemblance to juan"

      it's just a name i find nice that's all
    • User icon
      it is, its the opinionn of every darflenn user,

      even if darlene doesn't winn we're still going to call them darlene because the extra nn is unnnecessary


      also you ripped off the name from @jcole which himself wants the original to be used

      the difference is a single letter that isn't even pronounced, that's not a fair comparison in the slightest
    • User icon
      I agree
    • User icon
      1. i pronounce the letter differently
      2. darlene isn't even copyrighted what 😭😭
      3. if the letter n isn't even pronounced for you why do you care so much? it's literally just a letter.
    • User icon
      1. how????
      2. I never said anything about copyright that's an exaggeration
      3. simplicity and universal prononciation
    • User icon
      1. darlene = "dar lean" darlenne = "dar len" (len as in "length"
      2. ok
      3. if it makes you happier just call darlenne darlene if darlenne wins since it's pronounced the same (but the official name will still be darlenne)
    • User icon
      1. that's because of french but think about the Japanese on the website, adding an extra n could confuse
    • User icon
      i don't get what you mean
    • User icon
      It's how Paradock said it works
      If darlenne is what democracy is I want the cooler democracy
    • User icon
      no it isn't darlene is in other darlenne is in darlenne these are separate options
    • User icon
      direct translations would return "darlene" and also the pronunciation will be even more confusing for Japanese

      English is already not very phonetic when written but darlene is the closest we have to perfection
    • User icon
      as i proposed before: if it makes your phonetics dilemma better, the official name would be darlenne but it can be written as darlene for ... japanese or idk
    • User icon
      isn't that complicated
    • User icon
      I think you're misreading what I'm saying. Paradock has specifically said this is how it's going to go. I don't remember where, but it has been explicitly stated.
    • User icon
      that's ridiculous you can't rename a category because a couple of people complained if you want darlene vote other
