can someone please explain why Lionhead chose the name Milo? i'm asking this because Milo is such a wierd name. When i get this it would sound wierd telling people i got a game called Milo.

They probably chose it because it is unique and sticks in your head.

James or Nick just doesnt work as well as milo.

That's because James is a cat name.

I only wrote this because I hate you.

Oh, I always thought they chose that name because he's supposed to become a milostone in computer history.

Isn't milo the cats name from the movie "milo and otis"?
Also milo is a malt based chocolate drink, i'm guessing both are delicious.

I remember in some interview PM said they wanted to use Dmitri as the original name.

That was the codename for the project that eventually became the Milo game.

Well sorry to go for the obvious here but "why not, Milo?"

Well that's a fair point.
