I HATE dumb names, such as:

X-Men: woohoo! they are humans, but no! they have an X in front of men! they MUST be super!

Superman: oh my, a man that is super, GREAT name

X-Box: a vage discription of the console's shape, added with the most X-tream letter ever

Herbie, Fully Loaded: Fully Loaded, but no gun, thats almost as stupid as Russian Roulette, I have an idea, lets combine stupidity,
Russian Roulette: Fully Loaded
or just Russian Roulette:Luger Addition
I'm sure you will get a Darwin Award

Hello Kitty: Hello... but wait, SHE CAN'T EVEN TALK, why say hello to somthing that can't talk?

X-Play:(I love this show) lets all play with the X-tream letter X, as in the show, they said they sacrasticly said everything its better if you slap and X infront of it, after reviewing a game with an X in it

Lucky, a normal fish name(my brother's fish was named this): yah, real lucky, he's trapped in a glass bubble hell.

Dog Names: Chocolate, Cupcake, Peanut Butter, Butterscotch, and many other names i have heared, Dogs are not food here....or...most other places...but if you DO happen to live in a country that eats dogs, go ahead and call Lassie, dinner, if not STOP CALLING THEM FOOD NAMES

De Ragon:(forget the name of the game) sounds alot like Dragon eh? it looks alot like a dragon... it kills alot like a dragon, Stupid names, changed a bit, for the same thing.

Might think of other stupid names...or I'll do my algebra and spanish homework...

x-play is short for extended play. in the name of all that is ratty sockpuppet how did you not know that. ratty sockpuppet is my favorite character ever after the RPG ridiculopothy sketch with him biting adams head off.[/quote]

yes, i did know that, but they still changed it to an X,
that angers me, people would think the show was less dumb(you've seen the veiwer-mail they have)

And why is Kingdom Hearts call Kingdom Hearts? is there Hearts in the later levels? I have played it, No hearts...

At the end of KH1, Ansem says the place where all the Heartless came from was Kingdom Hearts.

Speaking of games, why is there more than 1 Final Fantasy when it's supposed to be final?

Kingdom Hearts and Hello Kitty (and Final Fantasy) are from Japan, I think you'll find. If you've ever mucked around with an online translator and some Japanese text, or a few specific internet memes, you'll know how easy it is to garble a translation from Eastern languages to English. Examples: All your base are belong to us! DO NOT WANT!

The name of the X-Men refer to the mutants under Professer X, which comes from his name of Xavier, and possibly because X is a common placeholder for an unknown. Extreme culture wasn't exactly prevalent back in the sixties when X-Men came out, at least as far as I know. Could've been. I wasn't around at the time.

Xbox was going to be the DirectXbox, but the name was lame, so they cut off the Direct part. The X-treme part probably nudged marketing along, but at least they've got a reason.

Superman's name was coined in the thirties, before the concept of 'lame' was invented. If they tried to rename it, there would be massive riots by comic book geeks all over the world.

Herbie: Fully Loaded. You could criticise the realism of the asphalt's composition and I would agree with you.

No idea what de ragon is. A quick google came up with a lot of sights in French and not much else. Unless Catherine Puce can shed some light on the topic, you may need to fill us in a bit more. I've got the feeling you're talking about Panzer Dragoon - dragoon was the name for mounted soldiers with firearms yonks ago.

Dog names? Eh. People are stupid. Fish names? Eh. Fish are stupid.

Maybe you should criticise different things, like that fact that I have way too much time on my hands.

i dont want to be offensive but oh my god you havent got that far in kingdom hearts you have had several years to get that far. dont be so [censored] about the game if you havent even played it that much. i am usually a calm person but when you mess with kingdom hearts i want to crack that persons skull open. And if you dont know my avatar is from that game. i have to go lay down now. dont over react to this i just get this way with that game. hey remember johnny xtreme from x-play. he probably pissed you off.

Also, to throw in my two cents about Final Fantasy:

When Final Fantasy 1 came out, Square was pretty much going out of business, so Nintendo was nice enough to let them make a game for the NES and blah, blah, blah.... Obviously, it was called Final Fantasy because, if it failed, then it would have been the end for Square. Thus, it was their last chance for the fantasy that is now know as the Square-Enix empire! Mwahahahah! :twisted:

*ahem*.... Um... yeah.... *sweatdrop* Of course, the game was such a success that they had to continue its legacy. So even though it's FINAL Fantasy, it's really not.

Yeah, um, whenever you KILL an enemy, that little light that comes out of it? You know the reddish thing? Kind of...looks...like...A HEART!? YEAH!
Whever you kill an enemy the heart returns to kingdom hearts, to be reborn again in some way shape or form. So in short, pay attention and stop asking stupid questions with easy answers.

Yes, but........HEART-LESS are you talking about them? if when they die, they give off hearts....ISN'T THAT IMPOSSIBLE?

Jez, people callin me stupid for the wrong reason, meh, gona play some Russian Roulette, hope to see yah soon.

Heartless is just a non-literal name, like "the endless stairs of (insert weird name here)" It doesn't mean they don't have hearts, it means their souls are buried beneath evil.

Yes but they are call HEARTLESS
Stupid name, they should be called
Almost heartless
or
Hidden Heart...
or
Shadow Heart
see... its BETTER.

they dont have hearts(or something like that) so they hunger for hearts and take peoples hearts in a effort to feel like they have a heart of their own. or the heartless are like hollows from bleach and they just like the "taste" of hearts. those crystal hearts are the accumalated amount of hearts they have taken from living beings. those names are not better, if they where than those ideas of yours would be their name. pff, N00B

^^ yah, but they ate the hearts

why not
Heart Eaters
or somthing like that, they are not heartless, the eat hearts, giving them hearts...

and I don't like King-dumb Hats verymuch...becouse it has FF people, and FF is too cool for a kiddy game...*casts Bio-Blaster*

The only explanations I can think of is
1. "Heartless" is literal. When Ansem descibed the Heartless as "those without hearts", he probably meant that they had hearts, except it was contaminated with darkness (hence the description).

2. "Heartless" described their heart-stealing activity.

3. The hearts weren't theirs to begin with.

my god....why you people make this topic.....those are names for goodness sake.

why dont we ask ourself the same question? why is our name the way is it right now?

Its isnt easy to invent a proper name where ppl can rmb it.... :?
