So, ZeRoc linked to a tvropes page listening awesome names a few pages ago, right? Well, I was reading through the real life section, and I believe I found a winner:

Of course, I'd properly link to the wikipedia article, but y'know: en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Wolfe%2B585,_Senior

His name literally translates to "Who before ages were conscientious shepherds whose sheep were well tended and diligently protected against attackers who by their rapacity were enemies who 12,000 years ago appeared from the stars to the humans by spaceships with light as an origin of power, started a long voyage within starlike space in search for the star which has habitable planets orbiting and whither the new race of reasonable humanity could thrive and enjoy lifelong happiness and tranquility without fear of attack from other intelligent creatures from within starlike space."

It may not be manly, per se, but it's pretty damn cool.

That sir, is a very large wall of text :shock:

Suprising how so many people can be so wrong, the manliest name ever is going to be something like Hilary Buttpuncher, any man named that will have spent his entire life fighting.

However, the best name for a sportsman is Gary Player.

You know what? Storm is right. The manliest name a man can have is a woman's name.

You can hardly beat such names as:
Vsevolod (literally: Owns Everything)
Vladimir (literally: Owns the World)
Vladislav (literally: Owns Glory)
:P
