Story time: I was at work and had the TV on, and on popped the BBC quiz show Pointless. I happened to notice that one of the contestants was called Ellie, and thought, "I wonder how my Ellie would do?"
Then, on one of the other teams, another contestant was called Rachel. And I smiled at myself at the coincidence there. And then my mind started wandering (as if often does) to how my girls would do on the quiz show. I happened to mention it to my good friend SenZontova, and so obviously one of the other teams would have to be Melecia and Caedyn.
And after some chatting with other people in various places, the other two teams were decided: the cat and rabbit from a friend (left anonymous at their request), and thekzx's Izzy and Becky. (Tay was considered in place of Becky, but I'm not entirely how sure he'd manage being on a TV quiz show...)
Each of the characters are mid-to-late teens in this, and although Pointless Kids doesn't, to my knowledge anyway, actually exist (although there is a Pointless Celebrities), it seems like the show they'd end up on. That said, they're all canonically different ages to each other, and come from different parts of the world, so it's be quite unlikely for this to actually happen.
From left to right; the cat and rabbit belong to a friend; Ellie and Rachel are mine; Izzy and Becky belong to
Postscript: A couple days later, I was still watching TV at work (not actually listening, it was just on in the office on mute), and another BBC quiz show came on (I think it was Bridge of Lies)... and one of the contestants was called Maeve. Of the three namesakes who took part on quiz shows that week, none of them won.
