    I’m still hoping Gold doesn’t -have- a first name.

    Quote

    He does. I think I read somewhere that RC said he knows what his first name is. Or A&E said they knew or something like that.
    Out of curiousity, I wonder if its even possible to just have a first name. Like if I had a child and just told the hospital to name him “Derp” with no last name, I wonder if they’d let me or be like “nope! Baby needs a last name”…. Hmm.

    Yup. My thought as well. Evanna = Morganna = The Black Fairy

    You guys think Fairies can have babies? I was generally excited to see this character was being cast. If its an early episode does that mean Rumple will wake up sooner rather than later?

    Quote

    I think the Black Fairy got un-fairy’d at some point. And as to Rumple himself, not necessarily. They can do a Rumple flashback with his mom without needing Bobby to do anything either than be a comatose patient and obviously Bobby as Rumple won’t be interacting with the actress cast as Evanna.

    Quote

    Considering we never really seen  Rumple’s mom in the last flashback featuring Rumple as a kid,  it is safe to say that she wasn’t heavily involved in his life. It rather she died, she abandoned him  or Peter Pan kidnapped Rumple. Either way I don’t thing Rumple will be featured in the flashback, but I do think we will see Robert Carlyle since as far as I am aware he is still a main character within the show.

    Lots of people are main characters. That doesn’t mean we see them with any frequency or consistency. See, for example, Belle, Will, Henry, Red (in S2)….

    He’s in a coma right now. There is nothing to suggest that he’ll be coming out of that coma anytime soon since this is a “first” in the mythos of the show and apparently in the universe of OUAT. When the plot needs him, he’ll come out of the coma and not a moment before.

    According to Behind the names Evanna has three possible definitions to the Irish it means young warrior, but to the Scottish it means right handed; strong. Then it also mention the name could be a feminine form of Evan.  Which upon itself Evan is a Welsh form of John which actually means Yahweh  is gracious.  While this may tell you nothing at the very least you know what her names means.

     

    Besides this, I did remember something while   I was reading the description the phrase Stunningly Beautiful, just instantly reminded me of something that may or may not be relevant. You see while Rumple in the fairy tale didn’t have a mom, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that their isn’t any information related to the beast’s (Beauty and Beast) mom .   The credited original author for Beauty and Beast is Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve who had received the inspiration for the story through Greek mythology tale of Eros and Psyche. In case you need a refresher course in Greek mythology Eros (or Cupid in Roman Mythology) is the Godly Son of Aphrodite.  In fact most people consider the story of Eros and Psyche to be earliest version for the theme of a beauty falling in love with the beast. At this point let me say I don’t think Rumple’s mom is Aphrodite. Although knowing the history if it turns out she is Aphrodite I don’t I wouldn’t complain about it.  Instead I think she is rather an original character, or the black fairy.

    Potentially for a Beowulf episode?

    No? Rumpel as the beast Grendel, his mother seeking revenge for his death?

    Actually, we had David in a coma as far back as the Pilot, and he woke up from his coma two episodes later.

    If it’s a lengthy time skip like six months….I’m willing to wager that Rumple wakes up at the end of the Season Premier.

    “Hey, that’s a great idea!”

    “Yeah, maybe a greater focus on mythology than on pop culture would reinvigorate the show.”

    If they don’t get Karen Gillan for Rumple’s mom, they might get Kelly Macdonald. She played the grey lady in Harry Potter and the deathly Hallows part 2. She was also in Nanny McPhee and Trainspotting.
