Well, Fawkesy lady, you are a real bombshell! :oops:

I believe that buddy, as in Hey, buddy, would qualify as an eponym. I think Buddy is a diminutive of William.

Love your videos.

I wonder where the word Dude came from…

Guy Fox – LOL
Guy Fawkes is the dude you mean :mrgreen:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

it is period as in the period at the end of a sentence, meaning “this argument is finished, just like a sentence is finished by a period.”

Sometimes it still has a negative connotation… like “yah, sure guy” or “hey guy”… especially when they know the person’s name and don’t use it.

this day in age, almost any famous person can have a verb named after their well known behavior, e.g. “gimme your wallet now, or i’ll Chris-Brown you!”

There are many.
