      It might be, or she might have really liked the sound. Keep repeating it it really rings into a "jorjorjor" sound

      I'm not kidding! She might have found herself muttering "george george george" at some point and gone "I'm gonna name somebody jorjorjor"

      If you read her intro in WIND'S TWELVE QUARTERS about how Omelas came to be, that's definitely a possibility. ("[… People ask me] 'Where do you get your ideas from, Ms. Le Guin?' From forgetting Dostoyevsky and reading road signs backwards, naturally. Where else?")

      Also, I mean "OR" and he's a channel for different possibilities, this OR that.

      Or even "I'll name him something that sounds kinda like George Orwell. That oughta hold the little S.O.B's! "

      Of all the authors i can think of, Le Guin and Delany are the two who are the least "authorial" in their voices -- at least in the places where "author" is related to "authoritarian". Neither one of them is interested in "telling people what to think".

      It's funny, because (as has been brought up in this conversation) they had a kind of fraught and combative relationship with each other's work! But they are a lot, a LOT, alike.

      Le Guin talks about how much she hates parables in her intro to "The Rock that Changed Things". Incidentally, @nberlat, that story is maybe a counterpoint to your thesis about how she doesn't like revolutionary violence. (I mean, that one and a LOT of her other work...)

      But Le Guin is never interested in talking about general cases; i don't think she believed such a thing existed.

      Part of what's so horrifying about The Lathe of Heaven is Haber just casually using his powers to Ctrl+A the entire population of Earth and apply an algorithmic change to them Thanos-style, without pausing even for a second to think about edge and corner cases

          Yeah, and that's exactly it -- for Le Guin that approach cannot help but be impossibly destructive.
