Feh!<P>I think you should have specified you wanted Otaku-ized names, I could have come up with something better than what I did.<P>And I want to know where I can get a sweatshirt like Tonka's that changes it's image every few seconds. That would so rock!<P>------------------

Incidently, I noticed when you drew them together they were all different sizes (with Tai) being the shortest. But when you have then drawn on their own next to Meekerz they're all relatively the same size in relation to Meekerz (I would have figured from the proportions of their group pic that Tai would be roughly the same size as Meekerz). Meekerz seems to stand roughly just a little higher than chin level on them all. <P>Perhaps Meekerz is a shape shifter? Or is Tai standing on his tippy-toes when he introduces himself to Meekerz to compensate for his dinkiness.<P><P>------------------

Iigo (pronounced Eye-ay-go and Eye-ee-go) is a spanish name. I can't remember what it means. del Bosque is a spanish surname which means "from Bosque".<P>I was going for an ethnically diverse group of friends with non-otaku names unaware that was the exact opposite of what was wanted.
;_;<P>Damn! If only I had know! If <I>only I had known!</I><P><P>------------------

<ch> I got the del Bosque part- that at least sounds like it could be Spanish. Iigo, though. =

Most people pronounce it Eye-ee-go (rhymes with Amigo). Some people pronounce it Eye-ay-go. Depends, I think, where in Spain you live.<P><P>------------------

Oh! Forgot! Ghastly, I'm using your hair and eye colors for the guys! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/biggrin.gif"><P>Not that anyone would notice considering my strip isn't in color... But that does qualify you for the cameo appearance <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"><P>Tho for some reason, I always think Nort is your comic alter ego... Wonder why...

I don't think anyone will argue with that. I'll have to ask my roommie about that name when I get back to school after the break. ^o^ I'm all curious now, I've never seen a double vowel in Spanish before.....<P> (I have an unhealthy obsession with linguistics. Gomen.) ^o^;;
