As wonderful as pageants are, we often wonder how they were created and why they noticeably have names all closely associated with another, connected by similarities and common source – the cosmos.
We’re no pageant historian, we have no inkling when pageants first started or how or why they took on such galactic names. All we know is when we came into existence, we found ourselves in a pageant laden world with pageant names ranging from universe, world, earth, globe, planet, galaxy and so on.
More wondrous is how new pageants take on names not much different from their predecessors – like something that evolved from earlier species so that it’s always possible to come up with a different version of an existing pageant name. Take for example “Mr. World” and now, up comes another pageant with a name clearly belonging to the same family “Mr. Global,” a third wannabe pageant can come up with a name like “Mr. World Global” and a fourth one “Mr. Global World” and a fifth like “Mr. Globe Worldwide.” Huh, thank heavens – with unlimited iterations a pageant name can take, we can have our fill of pageant cuisine in millennia.
