I have no good reason to back it up though, other than that well, I like how it sounds.

That’s fair–and many famous authors do concur.

LOL, sorry, it’s all the pent up rage from when I had to memorize it

I feel ya. xD

That’s a good point XD I would usually just say “close” and call it a day

Now that’s how you do it.🙃

True. XD I had to tone back my characters’ eye-rolling habits in this last draft of my book, lol.

Same here. xD

I think I refer to parents more often by names in books where they’re referred to by name by other characters, as well. If the MC thinks of them by name on occasion, it creates a clear connection between the “Father/Mother” character and the name that others refer to them by.

Yes, that’s precisely it. Well said.
