[Episode 4-5 spoiler] Rebecca's baby

[CapnRookin]

First of all, let me tell you that I totally loved this game, both seasons of it (didn't play 400 days though) but there's one little thing that has bothered me in episode 5 about Rebecca's baby : the name that Kenny gave him and the reasons for it. I know it might sound minor and it probably is but there is one thing I thought would come up in this discussion and it didn't. Let me explain: Kenny says that the baby should be named Alvin Jr. because Alvin was a strong helper with the group and never gave up on anything and did everything he could, even sacrificing himself for Rebecca and the baby. First, I don't really remember any moment in which Alvin was really of any major help regarding the baby or the rest of the group. He did sacrifice himself, but he didn't really have a choice either. Where I get a little annoyed by Telltale's way to put this discussion is that they forgot what I think would have been the first thing to come to Clem's mind, and what came to mine at first : name the baby Lee. The way Kenny was talking about how Alvin was a strong help to the group, I was certain it would be leading to the option to name him Lee, but instead all we get is the option to agree or comment on the lack of creativity for the name. I also find it weird that Kenny first thought of Alvin as a strong help instead of Lee since he only knew Alvin for a few hours in episode 2 while he spent several weeks with Lee and as he says himself, they had their differences but he still thought highly of him. We don't even know in the end who is the father between Carver and Alvin!

There it is, although it is quite minor, I think it would have been very appreciated by the fans to have the option of at least trying to convince Kenny that the baby should be named Lee instead of just having the option to tell him that he lacks creativity. What do you think?

no i dont think LEE would be agood name. he is rebecca's baby. not ours! and imagine that baby growing up without his mommy or daddy? its hard.. so naming him after his REAL dad is what should be.. Lee didnt know rebecca or her baby.. so he dont have the right to be named BY CLEM..... so yeah i think AJ was the right thing to do, for that baby's sake.. and i agree when kenny told clem that you should tell him about his daddy and how brave he was (even if he didnt) lol. so yeah, AJ was meant to be. not Lee.


plus; kenny is not the father, he dont have the right to own that baby. he is a care taker. so yeah, even if lee was mentioned i would've disagreed with him.
