Possible Character Details

[Some Old Dude]

Boy Kavalier. That's right up there with Savage Opress.

"How can you hate a name?" -Dan O'Bannon

The Star Wars reference is appropriate since I read that name out loud with the same kind of incredulous tone Ewan McGregor usually has.

"Your new empire?" "Boy Kavalier?"

[Nightmare Asylum]

They almost feel like names out of Pacific Rim, to be honest. Stacker Pentecost, Hannibal Chau, Hercules Hansen, et. al.

Up next, Melkonis, Roby, Standard....

[St_Eddie]

Awful character names.  Just plain embarrassing.

[Kailem]

Up next, Melkonis, Roby, Standard....

For some reason I've always liked "Standard". I don't know why, probably because it's always just sounded so weird as a name yet O'Bannon went for it anyway.

But yeah these names do sound a tad odd. But if they're still going with "Prodigy Corporation" as the name of the competing company I wouldn't put too much money on them changing before the cameras start rolling.

[Immortan Jonesy]

Since Alien is about a monster in SPACE, maybe Disney thinks people should have funny names just as in...

[Xenomorphine]

"What were you thinking for names? This is going to be a pretty landmark project and we should make an effort to aim for realism. So, first up, what about the company? It's going to be responsible for what's effectively a child genius and-"

"Prodigy."

"OK, well, uh... So, there's a character who's a little self-isolated and-"

"Hermit."

"Alright, well, Hermit's going to show he has the heart of a hero and this other character is going to bring out his sense of compassion during-"

"Mercy."

"Well, what about this other character? They're young, male - boyish, so to speak - and in charge of a large company, so... They're probably feeling a little cavalier and I was thinking-"

"Boy Kavalier."

"..."

"..."

"You think they're going to twig we're trolling them on purpose?"

"Nobody questioned the egg in 'Alien 3'. We're gold."

[Kradan]

On the nose names are

Spoiler

[close]

[Ops Officer Jackson]

This is sounding less and less like Alien...

[Kailem]

"Evil CEOford" - Is evil, CEO.

[St_Eddie]

"Penny Lez McDoon Trodden" - A down on their luck homeless woman

[Kradan]

"Afrea Kydude" - a W-Y scientist, loves Aliens

[SentryGun]

I've lost interest in this to be honest.

[St_Eddie]

I've lost interest in this to be honest.

To be honest, I never had any interest in it but the more I hear, the even less interested I become.  It's like every little bit more information that comes out about the project, only further cements it under the "yeah, this is gonna be a disaster" pile.

[BlueMarsalis79]

It's going to be a masterpiece.
