Question for all you GBs out there. Do you have a movie character’s name on your suit or your own name? I’m building my Mark II suit and just curious what everyone else does. I’m sure it’s person preference but my last name only has 4 letters and I think it looks a little dumb on a name patch.
When I first got my costume together three years ago I eagerly snatched up the cheapest nametag I could find on Ebay. I chose Stantz, naturally, and ran with that for a while. But after I met with other fans in the area and we started up the Wisconsin Ghostbusters I decided I should probably use my own last name.
I’ve got five letters and it doesn’t look too bad. We’ve got a guy with four on our team and he’s never looked weird to us. Well, maybe a little bit, but it had nothing to do with his nametag.
Sorry, I guess my I was searching for the wrong terms. I got lots of results on where to buy…
I think I’ve always just liked the look of the longer last names with letters that are taller and squished to fit. Thats what I meant by I think my last name would look dumb with 4 letters, just odd spacing.
