Summary
None of them chose their names. Captain America was chosen by politicians for its appeal. Iron Ma’am started as a joke -- a joke on Toni. Hawkeye was chosen because it looked good on posters, sounded good being shouted by a barker, trying to lure marks to the tent. Thora was chosen by her father. The Hulk was never meant to be a compliment. The Widowmaker was a compliment, but a loaded one. None of them picked their own names, and most hadn’t picked their own costumes, either, but here they were anyway. The Avengers' beginnings, genderswapped.
