So, imagine you're either a commoner in late Edo era Japan, an early 19th century Dutchman or, better yet, an inhabitant of some weird alternate universe where you are exactly who you are except you lack a surname.
Suddenly along comes the Meiji restoration/Napoleon/the cosmic hand of thread excuses and demands you must adopt a surname.
What would you choose? Why?

Being the only person here without a surname.....

so my name would be
Firstname Middlename Firstnamesson FUCKYOUYOUFACISTSCUMPREPARETODIE!!!!!
First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Maximus

Probably the one I actually did pick.

To be fair, you don't really seem like the kind of guy such monsters of rock would appeal to, though.

So what do you see me as?

It's not a slight, my friend.  I think of you as listening to poppier, dancier music, of a later vintage, is all.

Although this doesn't quite square with your appreciation of Prince. :hmm:

Bon Jovi is pretty poppy.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Sergeant Breaker sounds intimidating, doesn't it?

Not to a court martial.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

One shudders to think what would happen if you got your hands on a prisoner of war...
