I don't think any ship in xwp had a name/mashup/whatever we got used to in the last 20ish years. Just a slash, like the true classic they were ❤️

Btw, love the bit less "formal" attire and Gabrielle's tattoo!

I think ldm313 is right. I don't recall ship names really being a thing until the mid '00s. The closest thing I can think of from the '90s was that couple RichAndAmy from the comic Zits--that creepy couple who were so clingy that they morphed into a single organism. And stringing their names together was supposed to be satiric rather than cute. And now I'm all curious and want to do a bunch of research on the history of ship names...

As far as I know, the original ship was Kirk and Spock from Star Trek back in the 70s and they used the slash. Then there was the character x other character, then the names mashup, then whatever the RWBY fandom does coming up with thematic ships that nobody could identify when not knowing at least part of the story
