>>94022714no, you don't fucking get it. You can't just give away your name! Even if Beta Ray Bill would've taken up the title of "thunder-god", he wouldn't be called thor, he'd still be Beta Ray Bill.
it has to do with the origin of not just the character, but the entire Mythology.
I'm not a big fan of "female thor", mainly because I think she's boring and poorly written, but something that would have swung my opinion a little more would be if she hadn't been calling herself thor.
It'd be like calling Loki "Odin", just because he managed to wrestle the Odinforce from him at one point, its just silly.
