What last name do you think is neat? It could sound cool, have an interesting meaning or history, etc.

    At the cemetery I work at we got a couple Blickenderfers, Hammermeisters, and even a couple Deatherages. All pretty BA names. One of the Deatherages was even named Ozzy.

    Bruh, Mozart’s whole ass name was cool as hell. Not just his last name. This man wins hands down.

    Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart

      Mozart’s full baptismal name was

      Johannes Chrystostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart

      But he went by a few different names, partially because there were so many different languages spoken by the aristocracy in 18th century Central Europe that he adapted his name to suit whatever language he was using at the moment. “Theophilus” is the Greek form of “Amadeus.” Sometimes you’ll see the German translation of “Gottlieb.” Day-to-day, he is reported to have gone by “Wolfgang Amadè.”

      It wasn’t uncommon for people to translate their names freely like this. Beethoven went by “Luigi” in Italian texts, and “Louis” in French.

      “Giuseppe Verdi” would today be translated to English as “Joe Green.”

    Sweet is a nice last name, though I’m sure some guys don’t like being called “Mr. Sweet”. Names like Fox or Wolf are pretty badass. Also some indigenous last names can be cool like Roundpoint or Buckshot.

      Are you kidding? Mr. Sweet sounds like some kind of professional hitman. I do not want to meet with any Mr. Sweet :)

    I worked with teacher named Mr. Zero for a year. He was super cool.

    Also, if you haven’t seen it, the Zero Effect is a solid movie with Ben Stiller and Bill Pullman. The latter plays Daryl Zero.
