It really takes all the fun out of a thread like this when you are told you have to follow exacting guidelines. I didn't realize that this was such a serious topic. Since I am American born and not well educated in Czech customs of naming children, I'll just take my opinions elsewhere until the writers and creators of the show give us a clue as to his real name.
Since the writers/creators are American or Canadian, you may want to email them about the naming restrictions. They may get it wrong too...

Believe me this was NOT meant to be a serious topic. I left for a bit and the fun zipped off somewhere.
Here Fun! Come on Fun, come back now! *glances around hopefully*
Reckon we can get some fun here if we imagine what fun would look like if it was a dog?
I'm a bit crazy today cos I've just been introduced to Ben and Jerry's ice cream.
Uh, topic, right... Yes, I really cannot think of anything meaningful too add to this topic now. I guess if the PTB choose a name and don't do a chevron guy on us, I hope the name is pronouncable. Thats the best i can do for ontopicness.~Percussive Maintenance - The fine art of repeatedly whacking an electronic device to get it to work again.~

I really admire Hathor for fighting this whole multilinguistic battle. I agree with everything you have posted, but let´s just not make an international conflict out of it Dr Z. rocks eventhough he doesn´t have a first name yet and that´s what counts for me.
And for the funny part. Let´s give him some unpronounceable name like Bedřich, Ondřej or Zachariáš.That would be funny...at least for me as a Czech

I have been through the whole Czech vs Slovak thing before, as I had two friends in NYC, one Czech and one Slovak, that were quite...militant about the difference. LOL! And that was before the fall of the Soviet Union. And they explained the reasons why. But this is a thread that was started for fun so if I want to believe that Zelenka's name sounds better as Alexis Zelenka, that's my perogative. I will just continue to believe that his mother was Russian until TPTB give the poor character a first name...
Would be funny to find out that it is Walter, though... *giggle* Although I do kind of like Zachariáš. Dr. ZZ? He just needs to grow a really long beard! (Obscure American pop reference...)

With all due respect to the Czech Republic and to upstanding Czech citizens throughout history and all culture-loving people across the globe... would it be remotely possible, PLEASE, if we would be allowed to have fun in this thread and come up with silly names and say what names we personally happen to like without any regard to whether it's a "proper" Czech name and without giving any consideration to the socio-political ramifications of whether or not the names we like are "right"? Please? This USED to be a fun thread, I'd like for it to be that way again.
