Even if "alice/bob" doesn't work, "alice x bob" does. I get what you're saying; that's just how tumblr works, but yeah.

It's like EVERY SINGLE FUCKING PAIRING, the second it shows up on screen, regardless of whether it's canon or not, plausible or not, fandom is like "OH GOD. WE'VE GOT TO MAKE A NAME SMUSH. WE'VE GOT TO COME TO A CONSENSUS ON A NAMESMUSH. OTHERWISE HOW WILL OUR SHIP BE SEARCHABLE?"

That is very true, but I don't like the look of 'x' in the middle either. (Maybe because I used it all the time when younger, and so it reminds me of my younger self and shipping habits and I get embarrassed.)

I think people DO go overboard (especially when ships have like...four different names) but at the same time I don't hate all of them and will usually use the most popular name for convenience.

Yeah, 'x' has never bothered me. Go figure. It's what I'll search for first when I find a new ship. Usually I'll find the popular namesmush in the tag lists of whatever posts come up.

I don't often see multiple names at once, at least not after the ship's finally been established. It's always like some initial Battle Royale/Hunger Games death match. (There can only be one!)

Honestly, I just go with whatever is used the most. Zelda x Link or Link x Zelda or ZeldaxLink or LinkxZelda or whatever are not used very often. Zelink is. If I want people to see my stuff, I tag it as Zelink. If I want to find stuff, I search for Zelink. Just going with the majority!

I don't know, I find them kind of fun.
