I was amusing myself searching characters' real names and it seems there may actually be an old White guy in St. Louis named James McCullen and a couple of Shana O'Haras. I guess it's possible that's not their actual names and they just registered as such, but still.
There's even an Etienne Lafitte with a photo of a teenager in a soccer uniform. Last edited by Barefoot Jedi; 04-25-2009 at 01:56 AM.. |

Well, Hama did say he used 3 different sources for the file names, makes me wonder.

Uh, I use Courtney Krieger as my alias on Special Forces...
But what are the odds that some people may actually have those names?

There were a few Courtney Kriegers and they don't look like Joe fans. One of them was even married, Courtney Pettit Krieger.
There's also a Brad Armbruster, with friends that are other Armbrusters, so that's probably legit as well. Apparently there's a Latin gospel singer or something named Hector Delgado. There seems to be at least one legit Carl Greer. This is kind of fun in the most nerdy way imaginable. The ones that seem legit have profile pics. They ought to start a group: Real People Whose Names Are GIJOE Characters. |

I'm sure you can find a real person with the same name as almost any fictional character. There's alot of people out there and name combinations are fairly common.
Since Hama named most of the Joes after real life people.. I used to work two jobs and at each job was a person with the same name.
