DusterBoy Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Re: Looking for a good name Rusty Venture? Basil Expedition? I was going to suggest Challenger also. But someone else did, so now I hate it. Maybe something along the lines of "We named the dog Indiana" so we could have something like Doctor Philip "Philosopher" Stone. Doctor Tom Morrow? Doctor Warren Darwin, for maximum alliteration? Basil Expedition? ROTFLMAO Dr Richard Penrose? a fusion of Richard Dawkins and Roger Penrose, both famous English scientists (or resident in England, Dawkins was born in Kenya). or Richard Feynmann or Richard Leakey, most famous for his conservation work in Kenya and his book "Origins" about the origins of the human species. Or Morris is a good name for a scientist. Dr Roger Morris, maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoloOfEarth Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 Re: Looking for a good name As a toddler, William's mother called him "Newton" (after Sir Isaac Newton) due to his penchant for testing the laws of motion and his seemingly endless energy making him seem like a perpetual motion device. When he began to demonstrate his mother's gadgeteering expertise, being nicknamed after such a venerated man of science seemed doubly appropriate. A decent number of Newton's gadgets alter a target's force, mass, and acceleration (for instance, his force field stops bullets in their tracks, and his Vector Gun can either stop a speedster in his tracks or redirect and accelerate his movement into another, uncontrolled, direction). A large bully at Promethean Academy learned of William's nickname and took to calling the diminuitive teenager "Newt", which got under his skin like fingernails on a chalkboard.
