also just looked up Quintain because I'm a curious child like that.
Quintain is the general term, or category, applied to a poetic form containing 5 lines. Various subsets of the quintain category, each containing its own rules/guidelines, include tanka, cinquains, and limericks.
It's perfect. Now I want it to be his irl band name haha. Except Quintain is a big company in the UK apparently.
