He might have the brain the size of a planet.

SorrelForbes · 16/04/2013 22:18

Reminds me of the robot in THGTTG.

Ha ha, cross post Panzee

Step away from the "How I Met Your Mother" box sets! :o

I like Marv in Charlie and Lola. He has such a cute voice.

ninjasquirrel · 16/04/2013 22:19

Paranoid Android. Sorry.

elQuintoConyo · 16/04/2013 22:22

Love. It.

YoniRotten · 16/04/2013 22:22

Starvin'.

LynetteScavo · 16/04/2013 22:30

He was a friend of mine....

I love it.

ShadowStorm · 16/04/2013 23:59

I hate it.

TWinklyLittleStar · 17/04/2013 00:04

I thought it was an awful name. Then I worked with a Marvin. Now I think it's hideously awful.

Machli · 17/04/2013 01:05

It's dreadful. I used to go to school with a Marvin, he was always getting into fights over it. His parents seemed so middle of the road. I used to look at them and think "what the fuck induced you to call him that?"

Startail · 17/04/2013 01:26

I have a pain in all the diodes down my left hand side.

YouDontWinFriendsWithSalad · 17/04/2013 01:54

Great name.

How are posts saying "I used to go to school/work with a Marvin" helpful anyway? Every name has different associations for different people, would you REALLY be put off by a name you like because some random person on the internet went to school with someone of that name who they happened to dislike? Bizarre!

Maybe I don't belong in this section. Hmm

nooka · 17/04/2013 06:16

Just paranoid android to me. Not good.

ripsishere · 17/04/2013 06:18

dreadful.

catballou · 17/04/2013 06:28

an unnecessary burden to place on a child...though marginally better than Mervin

BinarySolo · 17/04/2013 07:03

Yep paranoid android for me too. Mervin on the other hand was the name my parents called my brother when he wAs naughty!

PoppyAmex · 17/04/2013 07:05

Marvin the Martian. Sorry.

HKat · 17/04/2013 08:57

Lol, Coppertop :-)

Sunnysummer · 17/04/2013 10:32

Marvin the Martian, or Starvin' Marvin, depending on your generation...

Personally, I wouldn't - though you could hold out hope that the millennials will have different associations!
