Templates I Use!

Obviously I don't write the exact same message for every name box or question, but these are the vague templates I use. I'll fill in the information, then re-order it, add and take away information, then recolor it.

The same goes for name questions. I'm a little more Stick To The Template-y for those, since the person is just asking for the origins of the name, not necessarily cool fun facts.
