To be fair, his name was Hal Emmerich. I guess he figured that if Snake got a cool name, he could too, but the only thing he could come up with was an anime convention. =pshadyh8er said:It's like Yahtzee said, when a joke is around long enough, people tend to ignore it.The Austin said:Ah men.lolmynamewastaken said:soild snake. just sounds ... wrong.
I never understood why more people didn't make fun of that.
OT: Otacon. Sounds like a name for a computer, not a human being.

Well, I can't say I've noticed a lot of strange names in games, except for the Final Fantasy series...
But for MMO's I've once seen a guy in WoW with his character named "Internet". He ran around with the "The Explorer" title, making his name and title together a rather funny joke (at least I thought so)

Katie Price (A.K.A Jordan, a UK glamour babe with so much plastic surgery it's beginning to look ridiculous.) named one of her children Princess Tiaamii: That's the entire first name. What the FUCK is that all about?!plastic_window said:Chris Martin - Coldplay's lead singer - named one of his children 'Apple'. I'm dead serious.

Isaac Asimov - Most famous for the "Foundation" series and also wrote a book known as I, Robot, a collection of stories about robots in which was the first documented use of the "3 rules of robotics" This was the inspiration for the recent film starring Will Smith.
and
Arthur. C. Clarke - He was also a famous Sci Fi novelist and wrote the novel, 2001: A Space Odyssey which was adapted into the film of the same name by Stanley Kubrick.
I read somewhere that this was intentional on the game developer's part. Both these men were very influential people in the field of science fiction.
"Lightning" same thing (and yes i know that's not her "real" name)Cody211282 said:Cloud, what kind of child hating hippy would name their kid that?
