By all means correct me if canon contradicts it, I have only seen the end of Balrog's story in SF4 and Ed's story mode in SFV but given the fact that he was abducted at a young age and it seems weird that a group like Shadaloo would intentionally name what was meant to be nothing more than a replacement vessel for their boss' soul, I choose to go with the headcanon that Ed got his name from Balrog. Even if he claims that he took the kid in solely for his own means, he can't pretend he doesn't care about the little ankle-biter enough to at least give him his own name

#watching Ed lore for fic reference and it is making me incredibly mushy in a good and bad way #I hope he and balrog reconcile at some point because I think the whole concept with them is sweet #Balrog is brusque and fights dirty and has absolutely done some screwed up stuff but still managed to have Ed be relatively well adjusted #sorry you overdramatic fucks you're an adoptive father and son nothing I can do about it #street fighter #balrog #Ed #op back on her bullshit
