A QUESTION FOR BRIT!SUPERNATURAL
NAME TIME
I think it's pretty much a cert that the brothers are going to be Welsh in this form of the story. But I haven't yet decided what to call them.
When I grew up in Wales I knew people with the names Sam and Dean. But if, canonically, they're named after their grandparents, they're much more likely to have more stereotypically Welsh names - not so sure about Sam, but Dean is definitely one of the names that's only started turning up in recent generations.
The names I've chosen so far are Siôn and Dai (nickname form of Dafydd), but I'm not sure whether to go for these over Sam and Dean.
Anyway, there are still surnames to deal with!
Winchester? (Not very Welsh.) Caerwynt? (Welsh translation of the place-name Winchester; may or may not be a realistic surname.) Williams? (Plausible, but it's a common enough surname in the UK that if there was another hunter family called Williams things would get really confusing.)
And what about the parents? Unchanged? Welsh-ified? Something else entirely?

What do you think?
Urgent notice
From now (18.30 GMT, 5th of January) to 4pm on the 9th of January, I will be on hiatus due to exams. Any posts will be either queued posts (possibly untagged, depending on which computer I can use for access) or, perhaps, responses to asks.
As a result, my queue will be running 24h as opposed to the current setup, which is mainly designed to provide hot guys and light entertainment for my American followers in the early hours of the GMT morning.
This has been an urgent notice.
don't look
sometimes you can see them, the bright little eyes peeking round the corners of reality, belonging to a race older than time and with more wrath than there is in all of hell (because hell, after all, is a human place)
and they whisper in the dark, beckoning, tempting, drawing you to their circle to dance forever in the etherlight
but don't look, never look, veil your eyes and stop your ears; didn't your mother tell you not to look at goblin men?
More Briternatural ponderings (also, a question!)
The closest equivalent of Sam being about to head off to law school I can think of is about to start a Law course at uni, or perhaps having completed his LLB and about to start his LLM. If he was about to start his LLM, then 22 would be around about right. However, if he was about to start his LLB course (which I think is closer to what happens in the original show?) then even if he took a gap year, he’d be around 19. Which would make all the emotional torture so much more fun, right? (◠◡◠✿)
I’m not entirely sure? But I suspect it would be a lot harder for the Winchesters to be ‘ghosts in the system’. CCTV could get extremely problematic, for one thing. For another, with all the car parks they stay in they’d definitely need to either use stolen cars (unlikely because it would probably sharply increase the UK’s car crime rate) or pay road tax.
What British accent would the brothers have? Geordie, Scouse, Essex, West Country, Edinburgh, Welsh Valleys, Northern Irish? None of the above?
Update
The buses are running normally, there are only a few trees still on the roads and the only really noticeable evidence of the storm is the fact that *half the bloody masonry on one of the school buildings has been blown off.* Apart from that, it's really not that impressive.
Heads up on my late-night blogging (!)
As today is the last day of half-term, I am deleting the Tumblr app from my phone. The primary reason for this is to dissuade me from spending too much time blogging, but it's also to free up space on my phone: in its place I'm installing a homework planner app.
Do any of you have requests for the type of posts you'd like queued overnight?
