    It’s “Rory,” but I’d never thought it could be pronounced any other way until now. Lol.

    I’d imagine yours is pronounced: “Dah-suse”?

      “Rory"

      Yeah okay that’s a simpler way of writing the latter way, then way I thought it probably would be.

      Dah-sus is more or less how I imagined it originally yes. Like the “da” from “da man” as in “the” and the “sus” not from the phenomena a few years ago where everything was “sus”, but from the Finnish word for wolf, “susi”.

      I know it’s cringe but it was like 2002 when I came up with it.

      And I’ve had friends go “deyh-sus” “deissus”, sort of, and I’m comfortable with it, but it’s not like how I meant it.

      Rory… Amy relation? (Pun intended.) (so bad-ass btw)

        Love Doctor Who, love Rory, but no. No relation. It’s just a name. Boring, but the truth.

          His completely unabashed boring-ness is what makes him so bad-ass. I bet you’d wait a thousand years for your loved one as well, you bad-ass.
