Opinion on top x bottom ship naming in yaoi

Yknow how all the ships are named as in top name first then bottom name jumbled? When I told my non-yaoi reader about this naming structure she was like “that’s so wrong wtf” she implied that the ship name should be jumbled in a way that just sounds nice, not necessary always top x bottom. I don’t have any critical thinking skills unlike my sis so I’m curious what yall think.

I'm gonna be honest. I'm strict about this one. It's stressing me out when seeing a character that's off of his personality. Because I like a character mostly for their personality, not only design-wise. I'm not welcoming opinion such as "it's not about the personality". It's clearly about their personality!! Like oh this guy is an asshole, I want ...... reply
