-Shipping Name Origin

The first of the two -shipping names to be coined was "SteelChampionShipping", sometime between 18 January 2009[Notes 1] and 07 February 2010[Notes 2] for the Neverending Romance ship name list. "FluffyRiceShipping" was coined much later, on 29 January 2024 on Tumblr by kagooleo.[1] More fanworks overall have been labelled under FluffyRice than SteelChampion, as kagooleo popularized the ship for the first time post-name recoining.
