A Cool idea for Christa's possible child

I get the feeling the creators ran out of time in Episode 5, but were planning to put more in. One of them being a revealing of Christa's pregnancy. I feel like it would've been nice and nostalgic if they're talking about it, and ask you what you'd want to name them if they were a boy/girl. (Gender is randomly decided.)

If they ask if she's a girl, your options can be Carley, Lilly, Katjaa, and Molly.

If they ask if he's a boy, your options can be Kenny, Larry, Doug, and Ben.

After you answer, one of the two will make a statement about the person. (Unless it's Carley, Lilly, Katjaa, Doug, or Larry in which Omid/Christa will answer "______, I like it." If you say Ben, Kenny, or Molly they'll tell you you'll be okay.

(This is supposing it happens after Kenny's (and Ben's) death.)

    This would be a nice idea. Having to name a baby that can allude to some other character would be awesome. I was excited for this in the tv series:

    -Carl finds out Lori is pregnant. Asks if they should name the baby "Sophia" if it's a girl because of remembrance for the girl.
    Me: Yes! They're straying away from the comics!

    -Later in season 3, they decide to name her Judith, another similarity to the comics. Of course...:rolleyes:

    Judith was still a good name though. Better than "Little Ass-Kicker" in my taste.

    Would have been nice to refer to past characters.

    E.g.

    "Doug would be a good name."
    "Why Doug?"
    "He was a guy who use to be in our group, light hearted and silly... I know he didn't think it himself but he was a real hero."
    "I'm sorry... It's a nice name though."

    "Carley would be a good name."
    "Why Carley?"
    "She was someone I cared about, saved my life more then I can count. Although, in the end, I couldn't save her..."
    "I'm sorry... It's a nice name though."

    "Kenny would be a good name."
    "Shucks Lee, you're making me blush."

    "Larry would be a good name."
    "Why Larry?"
    "Lol, I was kidding Christa."
    Judith was still a good name though. Better than "Little Ass-Kicker" in my taste.
    I don't know man, the name "Judith" sounds evil (probably due to its resemblance to the name "Judas").

    "We could name the kid Ben..."
    "Come on Lee, there was nothing you could do."


    (With Omid)
    "How about Duck?"
    "Duck? Are you serious? Where do people named their kid Duck?"
    (Chuckling) "I asked that too...Kenny said because nothing fazed him, like water off a Duck's back."
    "Oh, I'm sorry man. I'm, not good with sentimental things..."


    "Could Katjaa be good?"
    "Katjaa? What's that, like, German?"
    "Belgian I think. But she was a good woman. Proud, wise, and caring too."
    "So a, good Samaritan?"
    "Yeah. Like that."


    (With Christa)
    "You think Lilly would be good?"
    "Lilly, that's pretty...where did you get that from?"
    "She was a, survivor we were travelling with. But after her dad's death, she uh, (accidentally) shot one of my only friends. (She really meant to shoot Ben though...)"
    "Then some walkers got her?"
    "Actually, we left her out on the road/she stole the RV we were travelling in."
    "Oh, I'm sorry. It's still a pretty name though."

    I'd love this.

    I was going to suggest Jolene. But then again, I just liked the name. And I don't think Lee would've remembered the line "You tell 'em Jolene ain't goin' back!"
  • edited December 2012
    What if the baby dies in her womb before she gets to give birth, and the dead baby reanimates as a zombie inside her and eat its way out :O?

    that would be so gruesome ;___;

    Not to mention that if they ever find a way to play music again, there's some great songs about girls named Jolene! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Gp1r2vGi18

    Maybe , if we play as Omid in season 2, you can choose the name between Lee, Kenny, Chuck or Ben if it's a boy, or Molly, Brie or something if it's a girl.

    You should be a baby as the main character in Season 2! Just imagine! A baby killing zombies.

    It would be like that game Among The Sleep! Only younger and with zombies instead of aliens. :eek:

    I think this would have certainly been neat. It would be a good moment to reminisce about those characters who died, since there wasn't really much time to do that in the episode.

    Maybe the responses to each name would be different based on how you treated those characters. If you were nice to Larry for example, there would be some comments about how he was just looking out for what remained of his family or something similar, and if you hated him you'd mention how you despised him and are glad he's gone, etc.

    Don't forget about Chuck. (Charles if you're fancy)

    "Chuck would be a good name."
    " Why Chuck? Wait, you mean, he didn't make it?"
    "No. I found his corpse in the sewers after we got separated by the river. Used a bullet he was saving on himself when the walkers got him."
    "Goddamn... It's a nice name, though."

    Also, how is the disease transmitted? Because, if it's transmitted through the air, then how the fuck is the baby gonna be born as a walker? I mean, if Kirkman is gonna make it so that everyone already has the virus, he could at least explain how it works.

    It becomes a walker, and since it's connected by umbilical cord...... I guess she gets "infected" at that moment and dies in 24 hours as if bitten.
