They could have gone: “Hey, I’m John Rambolioni, you can call me Rambo.”
The fun part: the book was written by David Morell, a professor for English, and it is quite good. As such, it differs quite a bit from the movie. Very intense, very psychological. Different ending.
What, you expected him to be called Mario Mario?

“Wait what is that? Rambo?”
They named him after John Halo, from the video game Halo
he’s based on a real guy called Bo Gritz lol
That’s not the half of it, his middle name is Jimbo.
So it means something like “person who lives on a hill”??
One might call him the king of the hill…
In the case of john rambo it refers to the toilet at the base of the hill
Surprised that commonplace name has commonplace meaning?
This picture makes it look like he has a hole in his chest
I think he has pectus excavatum- when your sternum grow inward. The opposite condition also exists but I forget what it’s called
Oh ok, thanks, I’d never heard of that. I’ll look into it.
Wait until you hear what Obama’s last name is…
I had a boss back in the day.
One of his aunts had a house on a small hill. The lawn was pretty steep and faced the street. Back around 1964 she asked her gardener to put her name in rocks on the visible part of the lawn so everyone in town would see it.
I don’t know it Aunty still lives there, but there must have been a million pictures taken of her proud family name.
Do I need to tell you what it was?
R A M B O.
R A M B O AND RAMBO WAS HIS NAME-O
Her name-o
Pretty unbelievable. What I’m supposed to believe he’s named after a movie character?
Did you hear about this Odyssey movie? The main character is called Odysseus, lol!
