Didn’t think about combining them. So it would literally mean Dark(dark could refer to wicked) Green.

ModeratorAnother name I’ve considered for a Once original name is Midori, which is the Japanese word for Green. Also, like the name Theodora, there would be a hint of a Dorothy pun there too.

Participant“Wicked versus Evil! That’s the second half of our season.”
This should be amazing, I just hope it doesn’t result in another big setback for Regina. She made such great strides with her redemption in 311, and while I don’t want her to ever completely lose the EQ edge, I hope she doesn’t completely revert. I guess that might be how Robin ties into it, she’s gotta be evil to go after WW, but Robin’s there encouraging her better side as well.

Maybe her actual name can be Jade, and her SB name can be Mara?
Another name I’ve concerned for a Once original name is Midori, which is the Japanese word for Green.
Learn something new every day. Now I know why they named that green liqueur Midori.

ParticipantWILL REGINA COME FACE TO FACE WITH HER TRUE LOVE ROBIN HOOD?
That awaited encounter takes place in the second episode back, airing March 16. But since Regina once already forsook the chance to meet him (in flashback), Kitsis asks: “What does it look like for her to be given a second chance? How does she react to it?” — especially when she’s a bit preoccupied with “huge, more important things,” Horowitz notes, “like the loss of her son, and trying to destroy that Wicked Witch!”I’m really looking forward to Regina and Robin’s first meeting, but I’m going to wager it’ll take Regina quite some time before she accepts what Robin Hood has to offer her. I think their love story will be one that unfolds over a prolonged period of time as they struggle against outside forces like the WWW.
WILL HOOK BE ABLE TO JOG EMMA’S MEMORY? The midseason finale closed with Emma and Henry — one year after being sapped of their Storybrooke memories — being visited in New York City by a strange man wearing guyliner and way too much leather. And when he went in for True Love’s Kiss, Emma was having none of it. “Emma’s not easily charmed by him in the real world,” Kitsis reports. “I’ll just say that!”
Hmmmm. We’ve already seen spoiler images of Emma drinking what appears to be a magic potion. By the looks of it, it’s the Blue Fairy’s potion, not TLK, which jogs her memories by the end of 3×12.
WHY DID HOOK, AND NOT NEAL, COME FOR EMMA IN NEW YORK CITY?
“There’s a very good reason why Neal didn’t come,” Kitsis assures. (Perhaps Henry’s pop is counted among the “family” Hook arrived to report was “in trouble”?)It’s really nice to hear Eddy Kitsis himself say there is a very good reason why Neal didn’t come in person. And I’m thinking that reason has something to do with Oz, the WWW, and/or Rumple. It’s not that he doesn’t want to be there (after all he’s a native New Yorker), but he’s actually unable to be there. Either Neal’s injured, trapped, or on a quest to save his father.
IS NEAL STILL HENRY’S FATHER? Though Regina gifted Emma and Henry with new, “good” memories in which the incarcerated beauty had never given her boy up for adoption, Henry’s paternity remains intact. That said, any eventual reunion won’t necessarily be a joyful one. “In Emma’s current mind. the last time she saw Neal, that guy f—ing let her go to jail,” Kitsis points out. “She doesn’t have the benefit of re-meeting him in New York.”
In other words, Emma and Neal meeting again in Manhattan served a very important purpose in the sense that as soon as she saw him again, Emma realized she’d never stopped loving him. Also, Emma doesn’t remember the true reason Neal left Emma, which was to get her home to her parents, or the fact that he’s sincerely apologized and admitted his regret. Now that she has no memory of her parents, she doesn’t realize the self-sacrifice that Neal made for her. Nevertheless, once Emma remembers who she is by 3×12, then I predict the Swanfire reunion will in fact be a happy one because she’ll remember the true events.
HAS BELLE LOST RUMPLE FOREVER? This is where the producers will only offer up a pat, “Keep watching…. The fate of Rumple and Belle is something that’s going to be explored.” Since the Dark One seemingly did himself in, in the course of vanquishing Peter Pan/his father Malcolm, “There’s plenty of story we have in mind for Belle, that we hope the audience likes,” says Horowitz. “Emilie [de Ravin] is fantastic, doing some of her best work that we’ve ever seen.”
I think that Belle is going on a mission to save Rumple, who might’ve ended up in Oz as the WWW’s prisoner after he stabbed Malcolm. This would cast Belle in the spotlight as a hero, which she is after she saved her people and then again saved Prince Philip. While this spoiler is frustratingly cryptic, I’m thinking this could mean something very positive for the future of Rumbelle. If I had to wager, I’d say that Rumbelle is a top contender for am engagement and/or wedding by the end of S3.
WHY IS THE WITCH WICKED? With the introduction of Lost alum Rebecca Mader’s emerald enchantress, expect “lots of backstory” on the spring season’s Big Bad. “Whether that unfolds in Storybrooke, the Enchanted Forest or Oz — or all three — remains to be seen,” Horowitz teases. (And no, this Wicked Witch is not also known as either Miss Gulch, Elphaba or any other familiar name, but one of Once’s own creation a la the Evil Queen’s mum Cora.)
I think we’re going to get a glimpse of all three worlds: EF, SB, and Oz, (plus NYC in 3×12). I think we’ll mostly get flashbacks of EF of the past year. Then we’ll zoom to the present-day SB with side-ways parallel to Oz. I’m not too surprised that WWW isn’t named Elphaba or Theodora, since I think Once likes to put its own spin on things.
IS THERE A REGINA/WICKED WITCH RIVALRY? Does a dwarf carry a pick axe? Kitsis trumpets the showdown between sorceresses thusly: “Wicked versus Evil! That’s the second half of our season.”
Sounds like a rivalry of WickedSisters to me!
This should be amazing, I just hope it doesn’t result in another big setback for Regina. She made such great strides with her redemption in 311, and while I don’t want her to ever completely lose the EQ edge, I hope she doesn’t completely revert. I guess that might be how Robin ties into it, she’s gotta be evil to go after WW, but Robin’s there encouraging her better side as well.
I think Robin Hood being in Regina’s life will help to keep Regina on the road to redemption. She might relapse some, but I don’t think she’ll ever again threaten Emma, Snow or Charming. She’s learned she can co-exist with them. Now, Regina’s EvilQueen -ness is directed at her real enemy: the WWW.

Participant*Ahem* Throwing my suggestion into the hat for the name of the Wicked Witch I will let you know that the noble name of Kelly is also a shade of green. 😀 It also means warrior in Gaelic.

KeymasterHmmmm. We’ve already seen spoiler images of Emma drinking what appears to be a magic potion. By the looks of it, it’s the Blue Fairy’s potion, not TLK, which jogs her memories by the end of 3×12.
Maybe I’m remembering wrong, but we haven’t seen her drink it on the street. Hook hands it to her and she holds it, but we have no set images of her actually drinking it there on the street. Now I think she does but later, maybe at the same time she’s “finding” the dreamcatcher or is with another of her many talismans.
Either Neal’s injured, trapped, or on a quest to save his father.
Agreed. And I know it’s a rather sensitive theory so I won’t linger on it, but while I was 50-50 on Roland or Neal being on that gurney, I’m starting to think there is a stronger possibility of it being Neal and that the WWW has done something to him.
If I had to wager, I’d say that Rumbelle is a top contender for am engagement and/or wedding by the end of S3.
Engaged for sure
*Ahem* Throwing my suggestion into the hat for the name of the Wicked Witch I will let you know that the noble name of Kelly is also a shade of green.

Gee I wonder why you want that name?

HE would really think I’m evil if the Wicked Witch ended up with that name. She already thinks I’m on the Dark Side. 👿

ParticipantThere’s so much we don’t know at this point but was nice to have a few things new to mull over.
I don’t know about the potion/talismans/gurney business but I know it sounds like Wicked is going to be an antagonist to Regina, and guessing our other main characters will likely be on Regina’s side or caught in crossfire. I don’t think Wicked is shaping up to be “misunderstood” any more than Pan or Cora. Pan’s ambitions were kind of narrow when you think about it, despite the scale of his operation. All he wanted was to live forever and fly. He wasn’t exactly planning world domination or something.
