So, I'm wonderin' why do we call players and gigolos "Romeo" when Romeo was anything but a player?

Maybe because Romeo was able to capture the love and attention of Juliet, who was destined to hate him. To create love from hate could be seen as a big feat (although they were not fully committed to the feud like the rest of their families to begin with).

Or maybe because there are just so many players in history that they had to pick one name and they liked Romeo best?

On the flip side, I think I'd like to have a black cat named Jezebel one day.

Last night, I lay sleepless in bed, questioning whether I've made the right decisions regarding Oliver.
