Norwegian bus driver Andreas Jankov decided his name just wasn't cool enough. He decided there was only one way to make it truly rad. That one way was to change it to Julius Andreas Gimli Arn MacGyver Chewbacka Highlander Elessar-Jankov.

“I wanted to show that it is possible to be serious and at the same time take the name you like,” said the film enthusiast. “I wanted to see how far I could take it with respect to the number of names. I started thinking about this three years ago and it was approved in January this year.” Apparently, he's had his passport and bank card reissued, but the name was too long so he dropped “Highlander.”

• Julius is an homage to the famous chimp at the Kristiansand Zoo.
• Arn is a Swedish knight movie.
• Elessar and Gimli are from Lord of the Rings.
• MacGyver, it's THE fucking MacGyver, come on!
• Highlander could refer to either the movie or TV show, but there can be only one.
• Chewbacka (aka Chewbacca) is from Star Wars.

You think he would've at least spelled Chewbacca correctly.
