I would change my name to Knuckles or Shadow as an homage to this kid, but neither is as identifiable as Sonic :(

Doktor Sleepless

When he gets to be older he can change it! Like that Optimus Prime soldier!

When I worked at a hospital, one day when I was patrolling one of the areas where the doctors have all of their offices, I noticed one of the name placards declared one of the offices belonging to "Dr. Batman".

I was soo dissapointed to find out later that it was a typo. It should have read "Dr. Bantam." Yet, even after I pointed it out to the doctor, he never had the placard corrected.

On another board that I frequent, someone once asked, "What's the name and rank of the highest ranked Wiccan the U.S. Army?"

I replied, "Major Powers."

Woohoo...swag. You know, I always felt that Porsche shouldn't just be a girl's name.  :-)

Or Mercedes.

(As a historical note, the Mercedes was, in fact, named after the daughter of one of the original people that developed it.)

The Overlord


At any rate, I suppose my legal bid for The Overlord, God-King Emperor of the Known Universe is pretty much out of the equation.  :-(

I think names like that don't fit in the space provided, and are considered a crime against humanity.

LOL, why would he? But he could have very well be called Batman, it is a real last name.

Kind of like the man whose name is spelled Gwestietschufenholtzendamnen and proved in alegal battle he can have it pronounced 'Joe'?

Take GH as in 'tough',

Probably short for 'Gatling'.
Bingo! The cookie goes to Oniya. Hit it on the head.

1900-1905 American slang. Still in use today.

How is Gatling racist slang?

Bah, it doesn't matter anyway, Johny's awesomeness is untouchable.

No, I mean how is Johny Gatt's name an 'obvious' play on some 50's slang word. Makes no sense at all. I assumed you meant it was something to do with the war, hence the racist part.

His name is Gatt drop one T and you get Gat which is just a slang term for a gun that predates the Roaring Twenties in America.
