Forum:People of the Lake

I was just watching The Power of Kroll and realised that the "Swampies" refer to themselves as the People of the Lake. I was wondering if we could change the page "Swampy" to "Person of the Lake" or "Lake Person" or something like that. I'm A Hydroponic Tomato! Bigredrabbit (talk to me) 06:18, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

I'll go look into it. Is Swampy just a derogatory term, like Mutt?Skittles the hog-- Talk 21:20, April 22, 2011 (UTC)

I think so, only the Doctor and Romana call them Swampies as well. But the "Swampies" never say that, they say People of the Lake, so... Bigredrabbit 08:35, June 4, 2011 (UTC)

I'm not really sure. The refer to humans as "dryfoots" and that's not their name (obviously). However, you're right that they never call themselves Swampies. They say things like: "You betrayed the People of the Lakes" and "May their torments avert thy wrath from the People of the Lakes". I suppose People of the Lake/s would be sensible, and Swampy does seem like an insult rather than a species name. Skittles the hog-- Talk 20:05, June 11, 2011 (UTC)
