Just tried it with Polycarp – which of course required two names, so Poly + Carp. I am now **Contagious Specialist**. Hmmmm…

Another **Contagious Specialist** checking in! So it’s you, me and Cecil, Polycarp. Shall we form a hip-hop cooperative of our own?

All right. Evidently, there is no “translation” at all. Given the repeats, I guess there’s just a random (and all too short) list of names from which it picks regardless of what you type in.

I apologize for referring everyone to such a shoddy site.

it may repeat, but i don’t know how random it is. if you go back and put your name in, it comes up the same. hmm.

but anyway, i just came to post my brothers name as it doesn’t seem to have come up.

so here we are: **Spunky Misunderstood Genius**

Tater! We are one. I too am a Fishmonger (I did go to Red Lobster for lunch).

Must be set up on some kind of rotational basis; I got the same name for my SDMB screen name as for my real name.

**Zette** , I think I need to know your name. I got “Womanly Panther” when I used “Steve” for first name; and “Sweaty Butcher” when I used “Steven”.

Now, I ask you, what sort of stupid program calls a guy named Steve a womanly panther?
