Can't wait. This stuff looks too good to be made on HPL2

I've just spotted a continuity error and I need to drop in a new minor NPC. He's a grunt and he needs a name.
The grunts all have their own personalities even though they look the same. This guy is jolly in the face of danger (maybe a little oblivious to danger) and he says "LOL" and "OMG". The grunts all have inappropriately modernish British/American/Western/Anglicised names but this one doesn't have to be.
Best suggestion in the next 24 hours appears in the final mod.
Yes, you can suggest your own name, or username, or another forum member.
Go!

I find the name "Bob" to be simple and funny, especially in consideration of his personality. When I hear Bob, I think of Bob Teh Noob, a classic default character design from the old Runescape (which I happened to make a model of for the lulz)
Spoiler below!

VOTE MCKAWW FOR PRESIDENT!
And the name to be in the mod...
RE: Amnesia: The Second Dimension [BETA IS HAPPENING] - Darkfire - 05-23-2015
Simon "the Jolly Fella"
RE: Amnesia: The Second Dimension [BETA IS HAPPENING] - Romulator - 05-23-2015
I second Bob.
It's just a name that you can associate with something comedic. Short, simple, memorable.

freaky Frankie(?)

I really want there to be a Wubwub grunt. I got excited and even wrote a few lines for him ("Hello blue friend.") buuuuut ... it's too much of an in-joke. Most people wouldn't get it. (Plus, it didn't sit right for him to be the only one with an "accent" / broken English.)
There's already a Frank, so Frankie (freaky or otherwise) is out.
Bob fits the name-scheme well and would make a good grunt name, but it doesn't quite fit this guy - he's a bit younger and geekier than a Bob.
So allow me to introduce Simon:

Thanks Darkfire, and equal thanks to everybody else for the other suggestions!
