Title: Tekken 4: Dean Earwicker\'s name officially changed to...

Steve Fox.  Better?  I don\'t really know.  I was kind of starting to like Dean Earwicker.  What do you think?

This is from NamcoArcade:

It seems that Dean Earwicker, uncomfortable with all of the scoffing he was receiving about his name, has gone before a judge and had his name legally changed to Steve Fox. Personally, I think he might be suffering from issues, but perhaps a name change was for the best...maybe the folks over at Tekken Zaibatsu were too harsh on him in their discussions about his "unfortunate" name. In a press statement issued by his agent, Steve (formerly Dean) had only this to say: "I like my new name." What do you think though?

hell they should combine em Dean Fox

yea i think they need to do something else - i don\'t like one syllable names in games - they sound weird for some reason

his name should be something like Jermaine Butler - sounds better than both of those - sorry best name i could come up with in a mintues time

i agree one syllable names just don\'t sound right in fighting games.
i wish namco would release more info on this game.

They said they would release some new info soon, but I don\'t know how soon.  It\'s driving me crazy!

Namco Guy one: Man, I don\'t know.  . .  Dean EarWicker, well it just sounds like some gay porno..

Namco guy two:  Well, yeah I guess it does. But, I mean what else could we call him?

Namco #1: Well, I mean, I know someone named "Steve"...

Namco #2 : "Steve"? That is a cool name. I mean, it isn\'t gay like Dean EarWicker.

Namco #1: How about "Steve Winkle"?

Namco #2 : Nah, that sounds pretty gay too.. Where you gettin\' these names, man?

Namco #1: Uh. Back of old 80\'s pornos.

Namco #2: Ohhhhh.. I dig those. You remember the guy named "Steve Fox"?

Namco #1: Yeah! He ruled. I loved him in "Debbie Does Dallas"!

Namco #2: Me too. We should name the new guy "Steve Fox".

Namco #1: Kick ass. Great thinkin\' man!

Come on, does it really matter what his name is. It\'s just a game character for crying out loud. You just have to kick his ass once in a while - it\'s not like you have to marry \'him\'. ;)

I think Dean Earwicker was a good name. It is not such a major name like Fox or Williams.
