That's pretty good. I like it. From now on, that's what I'll tell the
people that it means. There wasn't much though that went into the name
though. It's simply a combination of the first names of two very
important people who remain the inspiration behind everything I do in
life. I'm not kidding though, when people ask I'll give them
bearophile's interpretation. It's way more creative than mine.
