do you think they ever took Worf to a department store for awkward family photos

It shows the level of my Star Trek brainrot that he was in one episode of The Next Generation, but I can't see Theodore Bikel in anything from his illustrious seventy-year career without saying to myself, "Hey, look, it's Worf's Dad!"

During my TNG rewatch my Ukrainian partner exclusively referred to Alexander as either Sasha or Sanya as in their culture they never refer to someone with their full name outside of formal events, instead using a shortened version.

This made me curious and I asked if Worf's name could be shortened like this. It took them a minute but they figured they'd call Worf either Vova or Vanya.

Since no one in the Rozhenko family ever uses these shortened names I've come to two possible conclusions:

Helena and Sergey didn't want Worf to feel like they were trying to make him Human so always used his Klingon name.

The Rozhenko family is both the most overly formal and loving family in Star Trek.

'How come you never gave him prune juice?

He said he'd never had it till he came here. Now he can't get enough of it.' - guinan

'He never wanted any human food while he was growing up. Everything had to be Klingon.' - sergey

'I learned to cook rokeg blood pie.' - helena

'However, we never quite learned how to eat it.' - sergey

'So many parents could learn so much from the two of you.' - guinan

'I'm afraid that Worf feels that we do not understand him.' - helena

'Part of him may feel that way, but there's another part that I've seen.

A part that comes in and drinks prune juice.

A part that looks out the window towards home.

He's not looking toward the Klingon Empire. He's looking toward you.' - guinan

This is something I've been thinking about for a while: a list of who should have been at Worf and Jadzia's wedding.

Picard

Data

Geordi

Riker

Deanna

Sergey and Helena Rozhenko ( Worf's adopted parents)

Nikolai Rozhenko (Worf's adopted bother)

Any of Jadzia's family

I know the in universe explanation for them not being there is because of the war going on and in RL they probably weren't able to get all the actors, but I think it would have been cool.

Seeing Geordi, Data, and Nikolai participating in the Kal'Hyah with the other would have been fun. Data having no trouble with any of it, Geordi and Data reuniting with Miles, and Nikolai telling them stories from Worf was a kid.

Helena and Sergey meeting Jadzia for the first time. I think they'd like her.

I could see Sirella and Helena butting heads over a couple of things.

It would have also been nice if they could have incorporated some Trill and Human customs into their wedding. Maybe a Trill vow and an exchange of rings.

If anyone knows of a fic like this, let me know.

"I don't really want to start some big discourse to drive people mad in the notes but here goes-

The Rozhenkos (Worf's adoptive parents), as much as I love them, are kinda super problematic for adopting a child from a foreign culture and raising away from real contact with his native culture. Credit where credit's due, the Rozhenkos did try to adapt many parts of their lifestyle to fit Worf's heritage, but there's only so much that can be done to fit Belorussian and Klingon cultures together.

Worf had access to Klingon culture through subspace internet or whatever and had a few Klingon rolemodels that he met as a child after being adopted, but, because he was so far away from what he still considered to be his culture, because he was now learning from a very outside perspective, he learned of it in a superficial and exaggerated manner that estranged him even more from his would-be Klingon peers and made him somewhat of a conservative/traditionalist (see: expecting Keylehr to marry him after sex, accepting dishonor for the sake of hiding an inconvenient truth of the empire, being a deadbeat dad, the whole Risa incident, etc).

Also he couldn't have killed that child by headbutt when playing football if the kid were a klingon too."
