Krita if it's a girl.
Gimp if it's a boy.

KDE (KayDee) if it's a girl
GNOME ("G" or Noam) if it's a boy

No, don't call him a gimp, that's just mean.

Godot if it's a boy.

Not just JSON; they said to name the baby .JSON. Reminds me of a post somewhere where someone asked if they could officially name their baby something with a newline character in it.

.json would possibly make them invisible too

My first kitty was called Rails, for Ruby on Rails, but he run away from home the second day we adopted it. Our second kitten was called Ruby, for Ruby on Rails, but she died the night we adopted her. Out third kitty was called Rails 2, but we call him Rails. He's still with us, 10 years old now.

Wtf, why would you put the third cat at risk like that? You already had ample evidence that the name is cursed!

Sample Size 2 isn't ample evidence - science must be scienced!

I met a refugee from Cuba who named her daughter Claimidia because it sounded pretty. My people aren't educated.

Argued for years that Diaphragma would be an excellent name. Or Columna.

Might be nice to draw attention to a girl’s attractive traits with a name like Eyelashley.

Imagine trying to quantify the amount of joy either of those men brought into the world. Huuuuge amounts. :)

I think that joke is from Waiting

you know what also sound like a girl's name? Kamille 😏

Nah that's chamomile: [https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamille] (https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamille)

Jokes aside, I can't find anything on a virus named that, not even when setting my search engine's region to US or UK, it only gives me info on Covid or the Norovirus.

Also, I low-key consider Camellia as a girl's name, even if it just means “tea” it just sounds gorgeous, at least in a Dutch context!

Its a flesh eating virus that causes violent explosive diarrhoea in pregnant women during their birthdays. Or something.
