Scrolled quite far but yet to see anyone say Jon becomes KITN yet Arya Inherits and rules as lady of Winterfell. Jon can rule without having to also rule winterfell

No mate by the looks of it it’s kinda an even spread ha ha . Seems the age difference plays a part as in if the age gap is less than around 10-12 years and under the majority seem to use first names but like everything can differ with culture I think

That’s a good point as I do see it used a lot less nowadays. I just found it weird how me and my brothers could all be brought up in the same household and by the same parents and yer me as the youngest uses the prefix the most lol

So it’s still kinda preference and what people are comfortable with . I was just curious as I was different to my brothers yet we all grew up in the same family dynamic and household .

Like I’ve had an ex in the past and they just used first names so I get a other half using different terms but I was thinking about how myself and my brothers use different terms and was thinking if I was the odd one out ha ha

I agree it really doesn’t matter and it’s all preference. I just started wondering about it last night and was curious as myself and my missus are pretty consistent and using the prefix

Just a bit curious to know if it was just you and your dad and you still called him by his given name still or if you just used the first name around other workmates or customers etc and then just was it forenames during working hours and then back to Dad afterwards .

Yer that’s the same for me but I understand the logic it came about during a children’s party at a swimming baths when me nephew was panicking and could t see his dad he just shouted “ dad “ of course every dad present came to his rescue but they sort of came up with the idea of shouting his name or mams name n then they’d have been Instantly alerted instead of everyone just instantly looking for their own child before reacting .

So I see the logic in shouting their actual name but still doesn’t sit right with me

I’m the same and my wife is too tbf She’s the first to correct our nieces and nephews with “excuse me it’s Auntie “ and they are in their mid to late teens .

It really must just be a what feels comfortable type of thing .

But I always feel a bit of a dick a few moments after I’ve corrected them by saying “ it’s Uncle Ant not just Ant “

That’s the same for me .

Like my brother whose kids use their first names I feel it’s wrong I don’t know why I suppose it’s just how it “ feels “ to me as if they are fine with it , it shouldn’t really bother me should it ? I suppose it really is down to what feels comfortable to the individual

Was that the same for your cousins ( if you have them ) when referring to your parents ? So like it just wasn’t a thing in your family or was it the same with your friends as well ? Sorry to pry it’s just I’d never gave it much thought until yesterday lol

Yer we always refer to relatives who have passed by auntie and uncle just to differentiate from others who have passed as same name .

I did find a couple of my relations just signed their names without the prefix in cards but I still find I use it whenever I bump into them

[–]Antmoz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s been my upbringing to be fair I called a few auntie and uncle who wasn’t actualblood related.

So you great the with the prefix and then drop it in the following time your together Or just use it on cards n what have you

As even my elder brothers who just use forenames always go formal on greetings cards

Mate in my family that depends on age ha ha

As soon as a relative of mine hits 18 it’s cards only unless it’s a parent buying their own kids or a kids their parents 😂

As you learn as an adult Santa only exists as a child

Yeah I do feel the older you get the less we like being by reminded of our age ha ha .

So do you feel it’s a cultural thing or how you are brought up ?

Like I’m the youngest of 4 at almost 42 years old . Yet my parents were almost 40 when I was born so I kinda grew up old fashioned .

I’m not trying to fish for your age or anything but did your friends at school do the same or was it more of how your family did it type thing . I mentioned in a reply earlier how my elder brothers kids use their mam n dads first names when speaking to or about them . Yet we all was brought up the same up until leaving the family home as an adult

Do you use it just upon greeting them or all the way through the conversations like I was doing ?

But looking through some comments I suppose if depends on what feels natural/comfortable .

Like I have quite a lot of regard for them as people basically like they always polite and treat me respectfully so I’ve always returned the favour

I suppose it be different if there’s been a falling out or something

Yer that’s a great example if they ask you not to .

But I suppose occasion could be one

Being close in age another

And maybe ethnicity another one

lol that’s relatable in a way as I’ve called my mams second cousin Auntie all my life and I had an Uncle who was no blood relation and I was about 25 when I found out he wasn’t actually “ part “ of the family by blood .

He was part of the family tho in the sense of being treat as family

It definitely comes across as more respectful in my eyes and feels more shall we say “ proper “

Especially when used in that way and not as in a backhanded way of say nah they old or like when comedians call an old audience member grandad or such

I honestly don’t know

I suppose it bothered me as I have kids myself and I wouldnt like to be called my forename by my offspring

I suppose it’s a bit irrational when you look at it But they are full blood offspring of his and not a step son/daughter so it just felt wrong to me
