Someone named Dimon

Hello. There's a protagonist in the game we are designing. His name is Dimon (short colloquial of Dimitry). What would you think about a character with such a name, what associations it evokes? The question is for English-speaking people first, but for all others as well. Oh, and one more name for you to discuss: Kolyan. [edited by - Chentzilla on October 31, 2003 5:31:24 AM]

Hey, Chentzilla,

Have you seen the fairly new Russian movie, Bimmer ("âÕÍÅÒ"

? I saw it the other day and now the name Dimon is associated in my mind with one of the main characters in the movie: the cowardly traitor that left his friends die under fire.

Granted, I am Russian, so my input is probably not as important as that of the majority of the audience here.
