Rocko's Modern Liiife..
it seems like a weird combo.

I'm surprised that guy can still procreate.

Interestingly, I'm more opposed to Akira than to Rocko.
I know it's a legit jap name, I used to be in love with the character from DevilMan when I was 3 lol. But unless anyone in that family has jap heritage, it just sounds too manga-nerdy.
I kind of like the cleverness in Rocko lol

Yeah, as in "short for Japanese"? Am I missing something?

Thanks for the heads up.

Rocco (spelled like that) is a huge guilty pleasure name for me, so I like it.

Rocko is horrible.
I love the name Akira- for those of Japanese heritage, otherwise it just seems...otaku-nerdy. X(
