How come your name is Bebpo and not Bepbo?

Do you pronounce it Bebbo or do you have to go all out and overenunciate it like BEBBB PO?

Bepbo is really fun to pronounce. I do it all the time in my private moments. But Bebpo isn't at all pleasing to my mouth orifice.

People have been asking questions, Bebpo...

I say beppo in my head.

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #3 on:** January 04, 2013, 02:48:23 PM »

I always screw up the spelling of it.

Also, what are the origins of the name?

archnemesis · « **Reply #4 on:** January 04, 2013, 02:49:15 PM »

I always get slightly confused when I read that name.

Those were the exact words of the high girl Bebpo kissed last week.

Bebop

But what about Rocksteady?

Timber · « **Reply #17 on:** January 04, 2013, 04:54:36 PM »

I'm gonna keep saying Bepbo. I'll brook no affront to my mouth orifice

bork · « **Reply #18 on:** January 04, 2013, 04:58:38 PM »

I'm gonna guess Bebpo got his name from someone misspelling "bebop." Maybe from Cowboy Bebop?

Mr. Gundam · « **Reply #19 on:** January 04, 2013, 05:01:55 PM »

Don't lock this thread until Bebpo tells us the story!

Shaka Khan · « **Reply #20 on:** January 04, 2013, 05:14:58 PM »

I always assumed it was a misspelled Bebop that stuck around, therefore that's how I've been pronouncing it all this time.

Cerveza mas fina · « **Reply #21 on:** January 04, 2013, 05:31:26 PM »

Bepbrah

Bebpo · « **Reply #22 on:** January 04, 2013, 05:53:19 PM »

The explanations in this thread are so much better than the real thing.

In short, it's this

Long form is seeing a spread on Cowboy Bebop in Newtype back in 1998 or so and thinking it was called Cowboy Bebpo and that was a cool name for a show, so I took the Bebpo and ran with it.

But I have enjoyed various versions of it over time.
