Guys! Guys!
I've just realized the fact that Tim Drake's fake name is "Alvin Draper" is the funniest thing ever.
I was looking up baby names for *very good reasons, okay?* and this is what I learned.
Alvin: Wise friend. From the Old English Aetheiwine, and also Aefwine, both meaning noble friend.
Also a diminutive of Alvar: An Old English name meaning elf army.
Elf Army, people.
Just. Tim! And he can tell people that is his name with a straight face!
