Hard to say. If your name was mentioned frequently or was associated with important plot points, it could be remembered. But in some BL novels, there are so many characters that names can get lost in the shuffle.
Unfortunately, without more context, it's difficult to determine the specific BL novel you're thinking of. If you can recall things like the author's name, or if it was part of a series, that would be really helpful. For example, if it was a well - known author like MXTX, we could narrow down the search. Also, if it was set in a particular country or culture, like Japanese - inspired or Chinese - inspired settings, that would also be a useful clue.
I'm not entirely sure what 'bl1 a christmas story' specifically refers to. It could be a unique story, perhaps a local or personal creation. Maybe it's a story with a special character or event related to Christmas.
I've never heard of a BL novel with that exact title. It might be a relatively unknown or self - published work. You could try searching for it in specialized BL novel communities or forums where fans might be more familiar with it.
Another theme could be self - discovery. The characters often grow and learn more about themselves through their relationships. For example, they might discover new aspects of their personalities or their desires in life.
