BigFinish (Spelling?)

A completely random topic that a conversation with @deltaandthebannermen inspired me to make.

Whenever I’m discussing the audio adventures or writing reviews, I will always write BigFinish as one word.

This is obviously incorrect, and something I’ve just gotten in the habbit of doing and am unable to spell it any other way - it just bugs me when I see it written “Big Finish” in my own reviews, and I instantly correct it.

Does anyone else write it BigFinish?

Please don’t be just a “me” thing :crying_cat_face: :joy_cat:

Unfortunately I think it might be a you thing… I would either spell it with the space or abbreviate to BF myself

Sorry yes it’s “Big Finish”. I’d always go by what they call themselves.

If it helps I could do a find & replace on the site and forum to correct it :wink:

Big Finish here. Or if I feel like abbreviating, I use BF.

I’ve always written Big Finish or BF. I have never seen anyone spell it “BigFinish”.

When I first discovered BF, I thought they had something to do with Finland and got very excited (I know it’s missing an “N”). At some point, I realised that someone who doesn’t know anything about them might interpret the name “Big Finish” very differently and think that they’re a very different company. Or perhaps that’s just my naughty mind… :laughing:

I’m going to put a Danish spin on it and call them “Stor Afslutning”! :denmark:

(Notice that I would still include a space between the two words😉)

I seem to be more of a ‘two word’ person when it comes to Big Finish, although I’d never say a word against anyone who differed from that - especially as, if I’m feeling particularly lazy (which is most of the time), I refer to them as BF.

As an aside, I have a Facebook friend who refers to them as FigBin - but never in an uncomplimentary way!

Nah, I’ll just leave it as BigFinish in my reviews as a running joke.

I’ve spent the past eight years calling them that, so why break the habbit? :joy:

It’s not just you, Stream.

Several of my friends who couldn’t care less about the audio adventures burst out laughing when they first heard what the company was called.

Surely that’s a happy ending not a big finish…

“Big Finish: For the Love of Happy Endings!”

And that’s still somehow a better tagline than the current one they’ve got.

What was wrong with their earlier tagline though?

“Big Finish: We Love Happy Endings”
