Oh, so Evan it is. Evan Lorne. In all fairness to Alan who was anoint everyone’s favorite Major with the Wesley moniker, no one could remember naming the character. But after some not-so-gentle fan prodding, Alex Levine dug up the truth. He was never actually called Evan at anytime, but in First Strike, he did wear a flight suit and said flight suit did require a name. So, Evan it is. Or, rather, Evan it still is. Hey, I can’t recall, but did we ever give Ronon a last name? I’m thinking Vanderberg. Does anybody have a problem with that?
Whew! Evan Lorne rolls off the tongue a lot easier than Wesley does and it doesn't have any major fandom associations with it. With "Wesley" everyone would either be thinking Star Trek TNG or Buffy and Angel.
I still think Marcus is the better name, but I'd pick Evan over Wesley.
It's a good dang thing the subject even came up in Joe's blog.

I leave you lot alone for a few days and Lorne’s first name changes!
Kind of glad I missed all the fun with that one, still getting used to Evan after calling him Marcus fro so long.
