Or user friendly names if you prefer.

If you want to write a story, how are you suppose to address them.

Hey, L'homme! Hey, Hom, Hey, LH or Hey Fem. Hey, Femmie! They just don't sound right. In a sketch.

Why can't they keep the official names, but give them user-friendly names too?

Their names are too easily misspelled, at least by English speakers. My Renderosity purchases land in folders called La Femme, Le Femme, LaFemme, etc. and it's a pain.

The official name changed also a few times. There was an addition 'Pro', dropped later. 

Adding colloquial names does not necessarily help referencing though. The P4 female was popular and unversely called 'Posette',  yet I cannot find that name as the name of any folder.

If they must have colloquial names, let it be Brigitte and Bertrand: Identical first character by tradition (Jessy and James, Roxy and Rex, Sidney and Simon), spelled without diacritics, and her name spelled the French way just to remind Americans and British their languages together come only third in terms of number of people speaking it natively, after Mandarin Chinese and Spanish, losing ground quickly to running- up number four: Hindi (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_languages_by_number_of_native_speakers)

Learn French, their names will become quite obvious

Bertrand is a great name for a plastic person. :-D

It's probably too late to give La Femme a "real" name, but maybe they'll consider it for the new figure. Which is supposed to available any week now.

Instead of La Femme 2 or whatever, give her an actual name. That is easy to spell.

By the way, in German Fifi is colloquial for small dog.

Wow... these are very, very old memories! D9XJc1yLgb5EZhh5yswDCnjvp4cURW0Jow3A0cC2.gif

In French: Fifi Brindacier (
- literally: steel strand, because of her strength
- no way that "they" could keep Pipi (in French: urine, polite and kind enough to be used with children)
En English: Pipi Longstocking

If La Femme is French her name has to be Brigitte, as the ultimate French Woman :

LOL!

And yet here we all are interacting frequently on a site that unabashedly makes its money off of mostly sexualized images of synthetic doll women, casting stones is kind of pointless considering how far off into the realm of weird it already is. Dressing up virtual dolls? Yeah that's not peculiar lol.

If you're writing a story you can give 'em whatever names you want.  Sid & Nancy (after Sid James and Nancy Sinatra, obviously), George & Mildred, Fred & Betty... etc.

Let your imagination run wild.

Me, I'd call them Obadiah and Husna... YMMV.

I agree they need names.  Anybody who would dare just call me over with "Hey, woman!" would be neutered immediately, LOL!

I suggest a plot twist: La Femme is revealed to be Belgian, not French and her actual given name is Femke.

But her mum was from Bangladesh, so her actual *first* name is Husna.  So there. :)

That would leave then her father to come from (West)Friesland, where the name Femke is common, among many other girl's names ending at 'ke' (Sietske, Mieke, Meike, Hanneke)

as a first step in that process change the figure name to give your character his props yeah save off that file so that it will still be there never got to that level of storing name/character of storage in my runtimes, sure if it helps you stay in the groove go for it remember where you put it and back it up too
