What is Yooour Brazilian Futebol Name??


My destiny

If there was ever any doubt that the internet is a serious place utilized, optimized, and inhabited by serious people offering important tools for success in modern life, then allow us to present to you BrazilName. Don't be put off by the minimalist design-- function clearly takes precedence over form-- just enjoy the output... you won't be the first (by press time, the page has roped in some 5.9 million visitors. Can UF get them over the Six Million mark? SIM!)

So check out some of our names (after the jump), then go get yours and we'll see who's destined for Seleção Brasileira glory.


Let's see how clever y'all are... can you match the BrazilName to UF'er?

(Good looks to Bigus on the images)


His favorite Brazilian is really a Croatian...




No Lucas, but awkward and scrappy when necessary...




Really, he's just an uglier Garrincha...




Wants to vacation with Corinne on a Brazilian beach...




Not much of a stretch here. The yellow suits him (relatively speaking)...




Perhaps he'll be trading in his drink of choice for some Cachaça...

    Je m'appelle "Rollisco."

    Sounds like a transnational shipping conglomerate.

    Georgeado, but that was obvious

    So going with Bulk Vanderhuge, I got Vanderhugardo

    With Blast Thickneck, I got Blaça, which sounds mildly racist and bold.

    With Punch Rockgroin, I got Pinhosa .. that one doesn't follow.

    just for fun, I put Blackburn Rovers in there and got Blackbito. That sounds oddly racist, though not in any really identifiable way...

    Oh, and Sarah, you've clearly gotten the coolest name so far - congrats to you...

    Goinho, which just looks funny. Clearly, though, it should be Chabra a la Pato.

    Actually, that should be Cabra. I guess my Portuguese is a little rusty.

    Kea. Which is kind of a lame Brazilian name.

    and the Villa is Astildo- which sounds suspiciously like what United gave us on Sunday.

    /was traveling that morning, but yes, I saw the open thread. We'll beat BlueScouse, I'm certain

    Bosingwa should think about adopting it.
