Apparently “Hypno-Toad” is too glorious to Travoltafy. Or it just doesn’t work on my PC.

John Travis

Vincent Barbarino would be

Victor Bailerey

Using just my screen name, Leah. Which works because that’s my dog’s name.

Nava is Nina. My real name gets Melissa Orteez, which if decently spelled with an Ortiz would actually be a lot more practical than the real thing. Mind you, I’m not so sure about being related to **HoD** … :looks suspiciously at her new cousin:

I just submitted my Travoltified name to the Travoltifiying machine.

What was once **Happy Lendervedder** became **Henry Lopeez** and is now **Hayley Leeee**.

> [@Skywatcher](#):

> “John Travolta” is “Jan Thozomas”.Do you have Flash disabled? Won’t work for me in IE (which has Flash disabled on this machine) but does in Chrome (which does have flash enabled).

I have Flash blocked, so I don’t think that’s it. Do note that you can’t just paste your name in. You have to type at least one letter.

I got Brett for my user name, which was too boring. I got Taylor Keezy for a variation on my real name. I think it’s cool enough to use as a username somewhere.

I get Blair Thozomas if I space out my username, but that’s just too silly.

Mr. Travolta has mangled my name quite stylishly. You may now address me as “_Benedict_”.

Clarke Greez. Uncomfortably close to Clark Griswold, for my liking.
