Wait, what? You wrote an article? Where, when, how, why? Where can we find it? I want to hear more!
Well, there is a reason Faberry sounds a lot more appealing than Finchel. But there are always the pairings it's hard to name, like Cara/Dahlia, or Cara/Kahlan, and so forth. I don't know how much it matters... I think the true point of it is that unlikable (to the fandom) characters often seem to have unlikable names (see: Finn). Thought there is something to be said for simply sound - TyZula sounds a lot more interesting than AzuLee, and it's exactly the same ship. Doccubus combines their professions (doctor+succubus), and is certainly better than any variation than could e made of Bo/Lauren.
Pairings as a concept is an interesting issue. Nearly any TyZula story means Azula will be portrayed in a more positive light; the same is true for Faberry regarding Quinn, and Brittana regarding Santana.
Is it odd I don't know any other fandom pairing names? There's tons of stuff I ship, but I can't actually find a name for it (Melisande/Phedre [really Melisande/anybody, preferably female], Emma/anybody [preferably female], Willow/Tara, Haruka/Michiru, Nico/Karolina, etc). The only other one I can think of is Kigo.
