Scene: A cozy corner in a local café, Chris and Swagmaster69696969696 sit across from each other, sipping their drinks. The chatter around them fades as they dive into their conversation.
Chris: (leaning back in his chair, shaking his head) You know what really bugs me? The way people overuse (Y/N) in their Wattpad stories.
Swagmaster69696969696: (nodding vigorously) Seriously! It’s like, come on, can’t you come up with a name? It’s just a lazy shortcut to avoid giving the main character any depth.
Chris: Exactly! (Y/N) just feels so… superficial. I mean, sure, it’s supposed to make the reader feel like they’re part of the story, but in reality, it just ruins the immersion. You don’t really connect with a character who’s just referred to as “Your Name.”
Swagmaster69696969696: Right? How am I supposed to feel anything for a character if they’re just a blank slate? (Your/Name) doesn’t reflect who you actually are. It could be anyone!
Chris: And it definitely doesn’t fit any specifics about that character’s personality or background. It turns every scenario into some generic fanfic instead of a unique story.
Swagmaster69696969696: (rolling his eyes) Exactly! Romance scenes feel half-baked when it’s like, “You pulled (Your/Name) closer.” It’s supposed to be intimate, but all I can think is, “What does (Your/Name) even mean? I don’t know who you are!”
Chris: (chuckling) And don't get me started on action scenes. “You dodged the attack, (Your/Name)!” What kind of a name is that for a hero moment? It’s just… it’s lazy writing, honestly.
Swagmaster69696969696: (grinning) I know, right? Like, if you’re gonna put in the effort to create a story, at least give your main character a name that sticks. It adds so much more flavor and attachment.
Chris: Totally. I love getting lost in a character’s journey, but if it feels like I’m reading a template, it just takes me out of the experience. It’s frustrating!
Swagmaster69696969696: (raising his cup) Here’s to characters with names! Let’s hope more writers realize that giving a character a proper identity not only enhances the story but makes it memorable!
Chris: Cheers to that! And let’s hope the (Y/N) trend fades out soon.
(They clink their cups together, laughing softly as they continue their discussion about storytelling and creativity.)
