Meaning and background

The story behind Moxxi

Moxxi has a documented Borderlands character association. The publisher's official game-information page identifies Mad Moxxi and describes her as a bold entrepreneur with a distinctive personality. A dog can receive the name as a fan tribute without the character's traits becoming promises about the animal. The source establishes this fictional namesake; it does not prove that Moxxi is an etymological variant of the English word moxie.
