And then when he grew up, "Mouseadult" wouldn't do so he named himself.
Lol.

In my opinion the worst dibun names came from Rakkety Tam,
Oneshrew and Twoshrew all the way to 16? How lame is that? Even reusing names would be better.

That would be better. In real life, it's very common to reuse names.

They even do that a bit in the books. Like Log-a-log and the Skippers.

Some cultures even use the same name for brothers and sisters. They have to use middle names for identification. When they don't have middle names, it can get very confusing.

Ah well, better than numbering your kids, I suppose.

That's actually true because I remember some of the Skippers had first names that weren't Skipper.

Yeah. Also Log-a-Logs Big Club and Tugga Bruster.

The Redwallers had a book of names to choose from, and they ran out. Unfortunately, they were not allowed to use anything not on the list, but "Species" was an option.
I don't remember that... But aside from that, it appeared that BJ took a little bit more time naming dibbuns that he intended to return, like Rollo and Arven.

They did rename them sometimes, for example there was two Martins

Well...Three if you include the Older Martin that Martin the Warrior was named after.

Well, Dwopple for example had an overprotective guardian who babied him, so that one kind of makes sense.
