Well I'm convinced.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Nomen est omen? Must be Tongue
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

Richard (origin: 'German'), is a male name which means Powerful: strong ruler. A Teutonic name from the European Middle Ages. England's King Richard Coeur de Lion was a crusading knight.

Martin (origin: 'Spanish'), is a male name which means Warring

Williams (origin: 'German'), is a male name which means Resolute protector: will. Surname.


So I'm essentially a goody two shoes knight king with the sun shining out of my ass.
Sucks to be me huh?

First name: (origin: 'Native American'), is a female name which means Golden eagle
Middle name: (origin: 'Hebrew'), is a female name which means Close to God
Surname: not there.

"No-one who decides that scientific evidence is not for him and that his own experience or the stories of others is the be all and end all of deciding what's true ever has the right to call people searching for reliable, repeatable evidence narrow-minded. That is hypocrisy of the most laughable kind." Derren Brown - Tricks of the Mind.

Good news for us Shell:

If you're going to go with Zaphod as a male name, you have to go with Trillian for the female name.
