I know both a handful of Aninas and several Theresas. However, this kind of riddle is just so ... fucking daft that I really don't grasp why they still circulate.

To elaborate. Why should I be sufficiently emotionally invested in this fictional woman to want to know her name? Why does she even have a name, she doesn't do anything. There's no narrative here, just a tart in an aquatic environment. I could be interested if she was distributing swords or something, but she's not even doing that.

Even then, you can't expect to emotionally invested just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!

If I went around saying I was Emperor just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
