Try referring to the primary characters as "Sherlock" and "John."

Classic-fans will froth with rage.

Tbh, I would find it a bit weird if you were using their first names in a discussion about the original stories. The characters aren't referred by their their given names in the stories (god knows how long we went before learning Watson's), why are you referring to them as if they're your friends or something? It's weird as hell, reeks of trying too hard.

I tend to assume anyone who does that is discussing the BBC series. This has led to some confusion when they did not, in fact, mean that series.

Well, it sounds incredibly wrong, since absolutely no one in the stories apart from Mycroft has ever called Holmes "Sherlock" and no one has ever called Watson "John". It would be like calling Starsky and Hutch "David" and "Ken", or calling Dumbledore and McGonagall "Albus" and "Minerva", but I seriously doubt any canon fans will "froth with rage."

Unless you're conflating the canon characters with the BBC characters. That will cause people to froth with rage, because well, it IS rage-inducing to conflate the canon characters with those people who bear no resemblance to them at all.

Thank you.

What you mean is, classic fans will point out (usually perfectly politely) that it's wrong, and the first-namers will get on their defensive high horses and tell us now elitist and horrible we all are and how right they are and "I do what I want" and how dare we acknowledge the source material etc etc ad infinitum..

Hi! Classic fan right here, not frothing with rage, actually.

Just assuming you probably refer to the BBC Sherlock version, but either way, it would take a lot more to make me froth with rage, because I am not an excitable, judgmental teenager. But go right ahead thinking you are being all edgy and original, it's actually rather cute.

Sorry to disappoint! :D
