It's an allusion...
And it is a direct reference to Cassandra if they use her name, although I get where you're coming from. It is a direct reference, but people may not know what it is exactly they are referring to.I also agree with Chrisell and Array. "Cassandra" would not mean "prophet of doom" if Cassandra of Troy was named something like Jennifer, for instance. Then Jennifer, instead of Cassandra, would be listed under "prophet of doom" in the dictionary; however, Cassandra's etymological meaning would remain the same. ~♥Eirena♥~Ruling the world isn't practical.
