why does everyone talk about this name? is it a streamer thing or

A guy on the Classic WoW subreddit made a post asking people what name they were going to reserve and he made the unfortunate mistake of saying the name he'd be reserving: Thex.

Some well-known player started a thread on Reddit asking everyone what race/class they were making and what their name would be. He naively mentioned his own name Thex, not thinking it might get ninja'd, and the internet ran with it.

A person in their hype waiting for Classic, made a thread on reddit saying how excited they are and will be rolling a troll shaman named 'Thex.'

Of course, in their hype, they forgot that telling what your character name will be to many people, will result in people going to take it just because the hell of it.

So, it's nothing special, or anything unique, just a person who made a mistake in their hype thread.

ahhh right lmao yeah poor dude, just saw a screenshot saying the guy ended up getting his name today though
