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.

Excellent find. The one for Houshmanzada is classic, although I dare not retype it for fear of about nine type-os. Steve Nash's is pretty fitting too.

Leandro Barbosa thought this was pretty funny.

I loved this site. My name is "Barclisco," and I wear the #12 shirt. Love that. Might turn it into the Christmas cards I'll neer send.

To hell with the Brazilian names; Chief Kickingstallionsims... Goes right next to Brian Suksomwong and God Shamgod on the All-Name team.
