Cool Brazilian names for American athletes

Brazilian athletes are well known for having rather cool single names that they go by: Rivaldo, Romario, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Nene, etc.

Naturally, when you're bored out of your mind at work, you can't help but wonder what American athletes' names would turn out to be if they were Brazilian. Luckily there's a Brazilian name generator out there to do the job for us. Let's see what we got for some well known athletes.

Derek Jeter

LeBron James


Purple Jesus


Michael Vick

Vinny Testaverde

Tim Duncan


TJ Houshmanzada


JaMarcus Russell, who hopefully will be a saint for the Raiders


Steve Nash


Roger Clemens


College basketball player Chief Kickingstallionsims


Brady Quinn

I can't be the only one that finds it hilarious that both Quinn and Jeter have Brazilian names that come awful close to "Dildo." If you want to kill a few hours today, here's the site. Enjoyito.
