In the book snowcraah by Neil Stephenson the main character is named “Hiro Protagonist”. Yes it’s a real book, and one of my favorites, by a real author.

I like it, as a person who doesn’t really pay attention to most names in fiction, and primarily focuses on the story it’s trying to tell.

Don’t make it too obvious like “Busty LoveInterest” and “Villain McMustashface”.

If you like techno-fantasy I highly recommend snowcrash. For years I’ve wanted a game of the first chapter, basically a guy is delivering pizza but gas is really expensive so all he has is a skateboard and a harpoon gun with an electromagnet. He basically shoots the harpoon at cars and gave them pull him towards the destination, it sounds like a cool video game like a race but you don’t control speed only which car you are connected to.

Don’t worry that didn’t spoil anything. The book goes into a totally different direction with technology and science.

The guy in the car getting harpooned is delivering the pizza, the skateboarder is just hitching a free ride.
Wait, are you correcting me or giving social commentary? I thought the guy on the skateboard was delivering pizzas but it has been over a decade since I read it so I may be wrong
I dont remember who was delivering the pizzas but I remember Hiro was driving the car that got harpooned.
Ok, I’m sorry I got that detail incorrect.
No worries
I guess it’s time for a re-read
