Here's Hoping It Means Nothing Bad - Tumblr Posts

Hope it's okay to ask, why did you choose the name lovey dovey hovey ? Just curious

Ironically, I love "lovecore" and wanted a name with something fitting the aesthetic (even though this isn't an aesthetic blog or anything).

I liked the term "lovey-dovey" but it was taken, so I though "okay, well it rhymes so I'll add a third word to it" and looked up words that rhyme. I think hovey was the only one that also ended it "-vey" so I went with it. That said, I have no idea what that word means. I looked it up and found it's a surname and also I feel like I've heard it in reference to a significant other (English colloquialism ?).

I also wanted the word "love" (or some iteration of it) because for a while I couldn't understand why my computer referred to me as "Lovel" as a name.
