How Did Your Downs Name Come About? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Hookbill the Goomba · 12-09-2006, 02:11 AM

I know that many people are curious about my choice of name.

It comes from my being a fan of the Super Mario video games (my opinions of Nintendo, by the way, begin to waver), and it was a sort of tradition in my family to take two character's names from Nintendo games and chose a name. My older brother (on another forum) chose the waddle De character from the Kirby's Dream Land games, as well as King De-De-De and so came up with Waddle De-De-De.
I chose Hookbill the Koopa, a boss on Yoshi's island and the humble Goomba to come up with Hookbill the Goomba.
