The list of wished-for items maintained all year, forgotten by the birthday, and remembered in December.
The birthdaywishlistarchive holds gift ideas saved in spring and consulted in December, by someone else. Its items are perfect and its timing is off. The archive is transferred to the festive list, where it thrives, and the birthday is celebrated with surprises instead, which everyone prefers.
Etym. — birthday wishlist + archive — the gift list kept by the wrong season.
