I suggest changing your name to Martel or Sobieski. We could use more of both. 8-)

Ps, only one of those is fake. :shock:

Max fightmaster is/was a Sgt in the US army, and cracked.com voted him manliest name ever.

Thorfinn Torf-Einarsson, who's nickname was "skullsplitter", was the third earl of Orkney, in the 10th century. He's also connected to another interesting name, " Erik Bloodaxe" :lol:

Those whacky Vikings, eh? :lol:

Oldest son is named Joachim (after my German father) people think he must be Spanish of some sort all the time, since it seems sort of like Juaquin I guess. Meh people are stupid.

Other son is named Gerhard (old German for spear thrower). He is named after my Grandfather and an uncle. About 20 some years ago Notre Dame had a linebacker named Gerhardt Bonecrusher, which is a very cool name combination.

Martel was on the list. Don't know if I could handle ski being in name. Merely speaking it in the presence of my fellow men at arms inspired thoughts of murder and mayhem due to the attitude/actions of a certain supply NCO... Richard was on the table. I wouldn't mind being called Rick.

HTRN beat me to Bolt VanderHuge, if a bit obliquely, so I'll just chime in with Rainier Luftwaffe Wolfcastle.

With your luck, everyone would call you Dick.

My High School English teacher said he had a former student whose name was Bends, and her parents named her Mercedes.

My mother wanted to name me Harold after my father, but Dad didn't want us both to answer when she called one of us, so Harold became my middle name.

Although compared to some celebrity names, from Moon Unit and Dweezil Zappa to North West to Apple Paltrow.....

:jacked:

Time for a joke:

There's an old Indian in his tribe, and for as long as anyone could recall he named all the children born in the tribe. One day one of the braves came to him and asked "How do you decide on the name of a child?" The old man answers "I walk out of my lodge and look around, and the first thing I see determines the child's name. So if I see a hawk flying the child shall be named Flying Hawk, or if I see a deer running the name of the child shall be Running Deer. But tell me, Humping Dogs, why do you ask?"
