Irrational Games needs names!

Today's interesting Twitter post for the day comes from @IrrationalGames the makers of BioShock and the upcoming BioShock Infinite. In a tweet that went out just a few minutes ago, the team at Irrational Games announced they are searching for names to be included in their upcoming, highly-anticipated release.

Want to see your name in BioShock Infinite? Here's your chance: http://j.mp/ibs5tMThe city of Rapture was always one bustling full of amazing details. The names of establishments like Sinclair Spirits and Robertson’s Tobaccoria were not just chosen at random, it seems, they were evidently named after Irrational staffers Scott Sinclair and Shawn Robertson.

With that in mind, Irrational Games is searching for more names to include in their new city, Columbia. To submit your name, simply click the link and enter with your name and e-mail address. As an added bonus to Twitter users, tweeting that you entered your name for consideration will make it count twice.

The submission period ends on April 12 at 11:59PM Eastern Time.

Given that Infinite is being set around the 19-teens, I'm hoping my name is attached to a haberdasher.
In Soviet Russia, game plays you!

Would've rather been immortalized in Rapture, but eh. Can't complain.

@zigs00: Chalk it down. This is for the years of mis-pronunciation and mis-spelling.

This is great! I love Bioshock and having my name immortalized in what no doubt will be the GOTY is so exciting I'm bursting at the seams! Perhaps a new chapter has started in my life...one filled with years of teasing, harassment and snickers from every person I ever met. Yes, today is a new day, and my spirit is renewed!

Best wishes to all,
Mike Hunt
