Spoilerphobia

I have an urgent question about spoilers, y'all.



I wrote River Song fic.

RIVER SONG FIC.

But that's just the crazy, here's the question- is it a spoiler to put her name in the character list ? I'm just... nervous. About folks who haven't watched the episode yet.

HALP.

I think terming a character's name a spoiler, particularly a new character, is silly. You don't know ANYTHING about her from the name, not even her gender. But I'm sure there's someone floating around out there that thinks it's a horrible, no good, very bad spoiler, so maybe you could say 'the new character in episode 8?' Although that's unwieldy. And ooo, FIC!

Yeah, I agree- the name was released in the promo materials, long before the episode aired. I'm just skittish, I think. I truly don't want to spoil anybody, but. But. I think it'll be okay, right ? It'll be fine.

I'm waffling.

(ALSO, how did I write this ? It boggles the mind. I'm putting it up with her name on it, I have to, it's her story. Sigh.)
