So I have a younger, semi-autistic relative that wants to be called "Kalcifer." To be it seemed absolutely stupid, and I refused, but I was nice about it. But I've heard of other people wanting the same thing. Can someone explain this to a Millennial please?
My guess is that Kalcifer sounds cooler than their birth name? I think it sounds cool at least.
Calcifer is the fire demon from Howl's Moving Castle - I'd guess it's a reference to that?
