Nice to see this again

After some googling, I guess "garth" is technically a correct term for the garden area, but since it's such an archaic word, that should really come with a TL note or something, or just get swapped with a more common word like "garden."

why does any parent give long or too many names to their poor kid?

Thanks for the translation

I'm sure you've seen this before, some auntie helps come up with the right name, a name that the child will grow into, and get the high paying job as a doctor or lawyer. "We didn't name you that just for you to become a fry cook at McDonalds!"

And we have yet ANOTHER winner of the "Mother of the Year" Award!

The reaction of her daughter says it all!

Hoo, Boy...

quite brave to upload a licensed manga (were the official translation is complete even) after the great dmcalypse.

In some cases it's just their godparent's names tucked on. I went to school with a guy who had five given names - his own, and four godparents. Nobody used anything but his own given name.

But then you've also those horrid parents who project their own wish to be a special little princess different than everyone else onto their child, and because the poor kid has to stand out from all the others they give them abominable names. Seraphy still got relatively lucky and just has a long-ass name that can easily be abbreviated once she has the guts to defy her mother in that.

Other kids get really unlucky and either get something that just isn't a name at all (think "Cheeseburger" or "Dispenser"), an intentional misspelling of a word (the subreddit for horrible names, /r/tragedeigh, is named after one of those examples), or worst case, both of it.

I saw a guy who really liked hunting, so he named his kid Gauge... As in, shotgun 12-gauge.

Or any of these stupid celebrity kid names, or Elon Musk's kids' names (those poor, poor children).
