-Shipping Name Origin
"SinfulShipping" was coined first, sometime before 30 October 2006.[Notes 1] This was their primary name for several years and it was popular with shippers. "SmittenShipping" was coined later, sometime between 05 July[Notes 2] and 30 August 2014[Notes 3], but for Allegra/Lila. The pairing has little to no fan activity, however, and in 2017, toxicbolts suggested shippers adopt SmittenShipping for Jupiter/Mars, as "the connotations of calling a f/f ship “sinful” are awful, smitten is a color between red and purple, and has more emotional and cute connotations"[1]. The name caught on, with Smitten being the paring's primary name as of the 2020s, especially on Tumblr, though Sinful is still commonly seen.

Fan Fic
- a name by orphan_account (2020), “What are you even doing here?” Mars whispers eventually. “I could ask the same of you.”
- Red and Purple by CloudsAreFluffie [Unable to archive] (2012), Some nights, just as Mars was beginning to drift off to sleep, Jupiter would very quietly enter her room. Those nights were rare and Mars was glad for that because they reminded her just how much Jupiter hated her. Not very shippy, somewhat one-sided SinfulShipping. Consensual M.
