If you were ever lucky enough to star in a Hideo Kojima game, have you wondered what name he would come up with for your character? The Metal Gear Solid franchise and the recent Death Stranding have proven that the man himself loves coming up with the most bizarre titles for both his allies and antagonists, so Polygon has taken it upon themselves to create a scientifically proven method that allows you to form your own name before Kojima even has the chance to ask.
In order to work it out, all you'll need to do is complete an 11-page worksheet consisting of 13 sections that cover the likes of your personal information, whether you'll be a clone or not, and your horny name. You'll even have a cool name, a violent title, and one that lacks subtext. We did tell you this generator is steeped in science, proof of which is that some factors will be decided by dice rolls. There's nothing more certain than dice rolls, folks.
We expect every Push Square reader to print out the document and follow along in order to form their own Hideo Kojima-themed name. Let us know the results in the comments below.

When I was playing MGSV: The Phantom Pain and scrolling through all the ridiculous codenames of the soldiers you recruit, I considered which would suit me best.
Never found it in-game, but I did reckon "Perplexed Panther" ("PP" or "Plexer" for short) sounded the least-worst option.
My name turned out to be Effervescent Aardvark.
Didn't see that coming but I'm cool with it.
I would but it's a Polygon article, so I won't.
Hehehe PushSquare just can't get enough of Kojima.
Mine was Dirk Diggler.
PushSquare is giving alot of attention to Kojima.
Almost to say that their Death Stranding Cameo had nothing to do with this.

Haha mad.
The name I use for this account was created on a MGS name generator when MGS 3 Snake Eater released.ππΌπ
who has time for that, I'll just make one up, Eric Cuttlefish
Metal Gear?
Psycho Mantis?
You're that ninja.
I might try this. You never know, I might get a better username out of it. It will probably still not make any sense though.
The Old Madness. Kind of cool?

No way I'm clicking, not giving any clicks to polywoke.
Bdg really is Polygon's only saving grace. Love his insane stunts!
