Greatest Name…EVER.

A bus driver in Sweden decided that his name was not cool/long enough so what did he do? He gave himself a name so badass, that we just had to tell you.

s JULIUS ANDREAS GIMLI ARN MACGYVER CHEWBACKA HIGHLA large Greatest Name...EVER.

Andreas Jankov officially changed his name to:

Julius Andreas Gimli Arn MacGyver Chewbacka Highlander Elessar-Jankov.

So, let’s quickly run down the meanings of his name:

  • Julius is an homage to the famous chimp at the Kristiansand Zoo
  • ‘Arn’ is a Swedish knight movie
  • Elessar and Gimli are from ‘Lord of the Rings’
  • ‘MacGyver’, you know that show where the guy can make a machine gun out of a snorkel mask, a paper clip and some pieces of string.
  • ‘Highlander’ could refer to either the movie or TV show, but there only can be one.
  • Chewbacka (TCM side note: We believe Andreas spelled this wrong, but since he is Swedish we will give him the benefit of the doubt. It should be spelled: Chewbacca) is from ‘Star Wars’.

I bet you this guy gets laid like no other.

You can officially throw this name into the list of badass names along with:

  • Guts the Black Swordsman
  • Nemesis Enforcer
  • The End
  • King Bloodfeather
  • Doctor Bong (Our Personal Favorite)
  • Rooster Cogburn

I wonder if his wife has to take his extremely awesome last name. I’d marry the fucker just to take his last name….and who couldn’t resist his Swedish mullet.
