    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    So that its subjects will view it with admiration, as a chicken which has the daring and courage to boldly cross the road,
    but also with fear, for whom among them has the strength to contend with such a paragon of avian virtue? In such a manner is the princely
    chicken's dominion maintained. ~Machiavelli

    Skyle Logan sounds like he should exist in a futurey weirdo railing against the rules kind of way.
    Ainur Soretudae would fit something I'm sure... he already may have.
    How about Jimmy O'Bondy? A New York (allegedly of Irish descent) secret agent who specialises in man to man slayings using nothing but potatoes in various guises?

    Hell, I thought this was going to be easy. But I see your predicament now, it's not as easy as it seemed at first glance. Unless you like Eastern European or very English names (which have both been done to death), it's hard to find a name with class that emotes anything.

    I can only think of nicknames for some odd reasons so I'll post a few:
    Caveman
    "Randy" Andy
    Rex
    Rex Landis <- A actual last name
    Zed Leppelin the III
    Jimi King
    Axle
    Rosary Jones
    Jack Oswald
    Leonardo

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    A good idea might be to list some 50 common syllables in existing sci-fi names, then randomly pick a random number of these and put them together. Every fifth name or so you come up with this way may even be acceptable...

    First off, It is spelled Favre. Secondly, I'm guessing Zain is looking for less well known names.

    Why didn't you ask him Vince Lombardi or Bart Star or even Bubba Franks or Donald Driver; what about Tauscher guy at right guard. And what names did you come up with, Zain?
