I thought that I'd related the full story of how the name "Nate the Great" (and actually, Nate itself, long story) came to me elsewhere in the forum, but the search engine isn't being cooperative. If you want me to go into it again, that's fine (it's a great story, really). Contrary to popular opinion, it wasn't because of relatively recent massive egotism, it was really to pump up the self-esteem of a relatively dull and common child.
