i honestly have no words to express the exhaustion i have at somehow managing to get embroiled in a controversy in the less than 10 days since ive had this blog, so can i please just answer this once and once only:
hellenistic polytheism is an existent practice today and i have no desire to disrespect that or delegitimize it as a faith
i can find, so far, zero sources condemning the use of greek gods as names from said faith, although i did find a lot of people whose neighbors or sisters had greek god/dess names
the moniker nix is a nickname borrowed from a dnd character and is also a german word meaning nothing; nyx or nox is the night goddess and has no relation
iacchus is an old nickname which is both/either the name of a greek god and/or a noun referring to a type of song
neither of these are my name, they are just convenient nicknames, and i couldnt honestly give less of a fuck if anyone uses them
if your religious beliefs find it problematic to call people after names that have also been used in hellenistic polytheism, then dont call me that
i do not care if you dont want to use them and am fine with you not doing so
i have no interest in furthering this discussion into a federal fucking issue; i am not invested
im ready to end this convo and move on now please, thanks, bye
