  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

This is actually a myth. Tiffany as a name dates back before Shakespeare. The more you look into Tiffany as a name, thinking it's modern, the more you'll find it just fell out of favor for a while.

It’s called “The Tiffany Problem”. You might want to use the historically accurate name Tiffany for a character in your 16th century historical fiction novel, but you can’t because it sounds like someone who was born in 1982.
