is it explained anywhere how the whoverse's names work?
i mean, do they get to pick their own names at some point, or are they slapped onto them according to preferences and personality?
“I’m The Carpenter, I’m a Time Lord, I’m from the planet Gallifrey, I’m 900 years old, I’m the man that’s going to save your tables and all 6 billion chairs on the planet below, do you have a problem with that?”
quote slightly altered from "Voyage of the Damned".
eta: nevermind question#2. just rewatched The Phone Sex Scene from TSOD.
doctor: I’m here.
master: Doctor.
doctor: Master.
master: I like it when you use my name.
doctor: You chose it. Psychiatrist’s field day.
master: As you chose yours. The man who makes people better. How sanctimonious is that?
also, this is where fangirls (and -boys?) explain in fine words why, when it comes to death by sexy, they happily go on suicide missions by watching doctor who (here: the sound of drums). seriously, the whole thing is quotable, which is why i'm not quoting anything ;)
