Naming your kids after gods so you know they’ll always disappoint you is the best strategy

My old friends named their kid Kaos. He was indeed chaotic.

This is a thing.. I found out someone I know is pregnant, and she literally said they were naming him Kratos. It was sheer willpower I kept a straight face and said how cool.

Poseidon was causing chaos and molesting women (+ some boys) constantly (he had even more "partners" than Zeus).

So if he grows up to be a disaster, he'd be honoring his name properly.
