Contest: Name THAT Guy
FINALLY! A contest! Anyone can participate! And the winner gets THIS piece of original art:
Now, see that guy up there? He’s shown up twice in the comic so far (here & here). He’s had speaking parts both times, but no name. Now that Imy’s working at Café Rawk, it’s time for him to come back, because he is the OWNER of the café. And this time he needs a name.
That’s where you come in.
Comment on this post with your choice of name. You have a limit of 3 posts/names. Depending on how many entries I’ll get, I may choose my top 5 and have you all vote for them. Otherwise, I’ll just choose my favorite and that will be the winner.
You have 1 week to submit! Submissions will close at midnight MY TIME (CET) on Thursday, June 24th.
Have fun!
I love it. I want it!
Let’s see. Colby? Jace? Noah?
i am going with Tom, Rob, or Corey
I think he looks Swedsih, so I vote for Ove, Göran or why not Torsten 🙂
Irving… or Buck!
Hmmm….Jeremiah, Steven or um….Pike 😀
Leo, Mark and Adric.. :P..looking forward to new stories 🙂
He looks like a David.
I SOOooooooo want it!!!! So my choices are…..
Bry short for Bryan
Pip short for Phillip and
Gabe short for Gabriel
Let’s see…
Irvine, Aidan or Spider (because of the hair!)
Since the three-letter-rule doesn’t seem to apply to the staff of the coffee place, I’d like to suggest Karl, Oscar, and Vincent.
He’s gotta be a Bert, Bob or Bill.
Romel or Reeve or Spencer are my three suggestions.
joey!
Mike. Mikes work in coffee shops all the time. The coffee shop I work in has had 5 guys work there, and three of them were Mike.
Blake Chaoua – Early version for the name “Coffee”
DILBERT!! (Points to those who get why I said that.)
Seriously though, my REAL first choice is “Orange” (or some derivative of it) because of the differently colored uniform shirt and the fruit theme so far with Cherry.
Not a suggestion for the name, per se, but it’d be kinda fun if his last name was Rawk.
R.oland
A.ddison
W.illiam
K.ensey
His friends called him Rawk for short.
Ooh…
Nathaniel, or Nate for short. Patric, Adam….
Was reading Doug’s comment and I think that I’ll say Nathaniel anyway…. Nathaniel Rawk….
😀
Well, I see “David” has already been chosen. I think I would like “Lester.”
Lars (pronounced Larsh!)
Kraig
Diego (but everyone calls him Don, ever since that fateful halloween party where he showed up as Don Diego De La Vega, disappeared, and came back as Zorro…zorro…zorro…)
Hmmm..he looks just like the UPS guy that delivers to where I work, so I’ll say Dana. For my other two choices, I’ll go with Tony or Joe (as in cup of).
Bernard, Ezekiel, Herman
First three that popped into my head.
1. Drake
2. Nevin
3. Kris
Okay he needs a nice guy name something like Bob or Darren or Louis.
Well, someone else went with it as a last name, but I’m going to go with it as a first name:
Rawk. Rawk Henderson. (hell, give him any last name, steal mine if you want: Eddy).
Because, really, wouldn’t it be awesome to figure out *that* backstory?
Looks like a Trevor to me. Or whatever Trey is short for. (a server named trey?)
Cuthbert McCaffe, owner operator of Cafe Rawk. But his friends call him Rawk (pronounced like Rock), he tends to lie about what his real name is… Even having fake name tags… That way you can use everyone’s name choices and be forced to send them all…
Drew
A name which applies to the character and the comic as a whole. 🙂
Going with Tyler. Cafe RAWK reminds me of the bar in my first comic “Leftovers”, and one of the owners was Tyler. If he had a goatee, he WOULD be my character Tyler.
I got the name Tyler from my college- Tyler School of Art.
tootin’ my own horn, eh?
You want Irma to take *leftovers* from your first comic, eh? 😛
Ohhh.. I deserve some serious pun….ishment for that one….
Ferdinand. Definitely. Good luck with your competition!
David Huxley, C.K. Dexter Haven, or Walter Burns.
1. Barista Bob
2. Raucous Ron
3. Shannon Rad…hey, I have a very good {male} Dr. named Shannon Radgens…I like him and the name!
I’m thinking he looks like his name is Ian, Jon or Ted. 🙂
(Cause I’m still into those short three letter names.)
Ok… my 2 cents…
Mik (pronounced as Nick, but with a M)
Oskar (Oscar, but than the Swedish version)
And I second Nate…
After looking at his picture for a while, I came up these three names:
1. Ki
2. Zeke
3. Gavin
Landon, Tobius or Drew 🙂
Rokku (roh-kuu)! Lol, it’s totally random, but it’s a Japanese word for ‘Rock’ (and I know that that’s Imy’s fave kind of music! X3) I also like Kangen (can-gen, not can-jen). It’s also a Japanese word. It means music. <3 OK, as for some regular names, he seems like a Johnathan, or a Seth. Maybe Zachary.
Woops! That’s 5. XD My chosen 3 are Rokku (Rock for short), Seth, and Johnathan (John for short).
How about something Arabic?
Khaled (Eternal)
Sameer (Entertaining companion)
Mustafa (Chosen)
He seems like a Robert to me.
1) Gribben
2) Berks
3) Calhoun
Roche, Nate, Dillon
Based on the speaking parts he has had so far, I think he should have a soft sounding name. I saw him and the first name that came to my mind was Ian. But I think Yonah would also suit him. Have a few contenders for the third option so will get back to you!
We are looking for some more art in the living room btw 😉
Woops, Maria already went for Ian so my names are:
1. Yonah
2. Nadim (pronounce Nadeem, it’s Arabic for friend)
3. Sander
Aiken, Leon, or Kyle. More specifically, if you like, let’s say: Aiken Edder, Leon Hazey or Kyle Linton.
“Glad to meet you, Mr… ah…” “Edder. Aiken Edder. Rhymes with ‘Bacon Chedder’.”
Or, you know. Not?
He looks very much like a
* Wilbur Coffenheimer
or possibly
* Bjorn Aggen
or something simple like
* Carson Fleeze
I’m gonna say “Taylor Rockford” but everyone calls him Rawk lol and here is why

and of course

lol
Dwain?
Hmm….tough call. Though given that his main employee, thus far, seems to be named Cherry, I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest Barry Straw. You see what I did there? Ha ha.
Though a couple other suggestions. Ezra Williams.
And one of my favorite names of all time. Kyle Killian
Somehow he looks italian to me. Lino, Matteo? or any other on http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nomi_italiani#L (I know it’s a long list) ^^
OK, I know the perfect name! Or, at least, I think it suits him. Jonah. His name should be Jonah. Or Rokku. Or Seth. Lol! XD
~Temae koigokoro watashi, nya!!! X3
