Look at #10. LOL.

Also, I didn't realize the comedy of "Solid Snake" until I saw the runner-ups for that list.

Boogerman owned back in the day. And Noob Saibot isn't a bad name, it's the reason people are called noobs.

Consider "Snake Eater". If there is ever a MGS movie, I really hope it's pornographic.

How can you say a historical person's name is a failure as character name?

That baffles me.

Actually, the name "Snake Eater" is a real name, it refers to the Army special forces training program, aka the Green Berets, especially the "Wilderness Survival" school where they teachs you which wild life is edible and which isn't. One of the "main course" during this school are...you gussed it, snakes. This is why every special forces soilder is also known as a "Snake Eater" cause there's an saying that, "If you went the wilderness survival school and didn't eat any snakes, then you didn't went through the school, much less a special forces soilder!"

It's boring and uninspired. It is what it is though, and there's no way they could change it at this point.

That's bad as Solid Snake's real name being David.

You seriously never picked up on any of that before this thread? The MGS series is full of sexual innuendos and weird stuff like that.
