That completely fits the pattern, and sounds nice  >:D, but it would be too long to have everywhere as a name.
Replace "Manchurian" with "Thai", maybe? "Transsexual Thai Totalitarian?"

Thai was actually my first choice; but Manchurian works as an equivalent of Cuban even better, and rolls more impressively off the tongue.

If I mention that Stranger is a reasonably accepted family name here (it's not mine though and you don't pronounce it as you would in English) you might just think what it would feel like to have Odd Stranger on your business cards.

(And if I tell you that Cock is a common first name here, and also an established second name (but mostly spelled "Kok" in that case, as was the name of the former prime minister, Wim Kok) and that another equally accepted first name here is Dick, you can figure out what sort of names you might find on Flemish and Dutch business cards ...).  :-\

It's a traditional (as in totally out of fashion these days) Norwegian name meaning Edge (as on a knife). No relation to the U2 guitarist though.

Not to mention the possibility of a brother of Odd being called Even...

Shh. I'm waiting for mickuckerneel to post...

Karl Henning

I'm betting his first name is Mickuckern.  And what a cool family name: Eel.  Sound kind of old New England, don't it?

He's a slippery sort.
Gotta keep an eye on him - a real troublemaker if I ever saw one! :)
