Inception is that the film doesn't feel the need to give you every detail. For most of the characters we're only ever given one name. We know minimal details about their backgrounds and relationships, which allows fic writers an almost endless array of possibilities with which to play.
So naturally, when names aren't given (like Eames' first name), the urge is there to fill in the blanks, a task harder than it would appear. Writer
fahye put it like this: "the fact that I couldn't make one work suggests that it is in fact so terrible that it would require professional extraction for him to own up to it."
Even Ariadne and Yusuf are curious, and set out to find the answer to the ultimate question: "What's Eames' first name?" Of course, as these things go, everyone soon gets roped into the game as Ariadne and Yusuf employ increasingly devious (and ethically questionable) methods of discovery.
( 'You really don't know?' [Ariadne] turns to ask Cobb. 'But you've known him for years!' )On Livejournal:
