I use the translation of my real name to the proper language

When playing SH3/SH4 UBM I am "Albrecht Von Hansen"

When playing SH4 fleet boats I am "Al Johnson"

When playing russian subs in DW I am "Albert Albertevitsch Ivanov"

I use SH3C to generate a random name every time I start a new career. My current one is Erich Leibrock.

Commander Wreford-Brown was captain of the HMS Conqueror when it sank the cruiser ARA General Belgrano during the Falklands War of 1982. He is the only nuclear-powered submarine captain to ever sink a ship.

I was surprised that none of the other Brits on SS had taken the name and always use it when starting a new career.

I think from here on my commander should be Johann Mills, as a little homage to the actor John Mills, who has played more sub commanders on film than anyone else!

Currently my favourite is Wilhelm Frederickson...

Distant relative/decendant of Captain "Sweet William" Frederickson of the 60th Rifles, British Army (early 19th Century), of Anglo/German heritage, friend and colleague of Major Richard Sharpe, 95th Rifles.

p.s. used to get names for SH3 from SH Commander, too.
