Help me rename my cabinet...i'm out of ideas.
severdhed:
I'm about half way done with my 4 player pedestal cabinet, so naturally i'm thinking ahead to my next project :) My wife assured me that i will not be bringing any more cabinets into this house, so i have to make due with the two that i have. Right now, my upright cabinet is set up for 2 players, but once my 4player pedestal is done, it is going to be converted back to a vertical classics cabinet. This was my first cabinet, many have come and gone over the years, but i will not get rid of this one. I got this cabinet before having children, but when my first son came along, i wanted to name it after him (Zakary), so after some thinking, i came up with Zak-Man and made a pac-man style marquee for the cabinet. This was great, my wife and I really liked it. However 6 years have gone by since Zak came into our lives, and by the end of this month, i'll have 4 children...but Zak is the only one with a cabinet named after him. This has not caused any issues yet, but I am afraid that it could down the road. My plan is to make 3 more marquees for my zakman cabinet that i can swap out periodically...each one named after one of my children. This is where i need help. Zakary is already taken care of, and my 2 year old daughter Kira somehow ended up with the nickname of "Kirbert" (i'm not sure how that happened, it just did), so i'm picturing a modified Q-Bert theme for hers. However i cannot seem to come up with anything that works for my 4 year old son, Xander, or my soon to be born son Caleb. Please help!!!

Not exactly arcade machine name related, but here are some ideas :
Xan Tech
Mr. Xanderson (Matrix theme)
Caleb's Quest
And (name) for all
In (name) we trust
(name)'s Lair (Dragon's Lair theme)
My brother got a whole arcade cabinet and all I got was this stinkin' marquee
And when they fight about which marquee should be on the machine, you could have one marquee to rule them all:
Four Score and Many Years Ago (displaying the 4 marquees as a compilation)
