I suppose there are no "c"s in Hieroglyphs.

The two 'c's in my name ended up as 'k's.
But according the the Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_uniliteral_signs) there was a 'Ch' sound hieroglyph.
I'm guessing the meme thing just does each letter on its own though.

I think so. If there is a "ch" sound, it should be there in the first place.
It should, but a meme generator thing probably isn't advanced enough to figure stuff like that out. I mean, it could be....if someone took the extra time to program it.

Very true. But it could be worse. It could ignore it completely.
Like that one that ignored my name.
Yeah, it seemed the name origins that meme had were Western names only.
Which is not fair. *Hiro pouts.*
Although I should expect it because the meme is in English. Japanese ones would probably do the same thing.
Probably. Unless it had a huge name database of all sorts of name origins, you know?
A lot of baby name sites have lots of names from various cultures.
That's very true, they do. I didn't even think of those.
Ando and I went to one once when an American girl temped at the company. We wanted to know what her name meant. Her name was Melissa which means "beloved".
Hey, this looks sweet!

So what does your name mean, Hiro?
'Charles' means like 'man' or 'army' depending on the source. I dunno...doesn't really fit me, I don't think.

Apparently O's and U's are the same in hieroglyphs. *grins*
That does look cool though.

Ack! They haven't put his name in kanji, so I can't say.
"Man" would fit, but not "army".
"Man" would fit, but not "army".
I thought it was on one of the notes Hiro sent sent Ando from the past, but...come to think of it, I don't think he signed his name...
Definitely not 'army.'
Definitely not 'army.'
If they did, then it wasn't shown well enough for anyone to pick up. Cause they've only ever been writing it in hiregana.
You need a name that reflects your big brain.

Maybe. My middle name just translates to a Scottish place or something...
