    Automattic is going strong in blogging matters. Doublematt will make it stronger. You should have named WordPress as Wordmatt or Mattpress :-)

    In Spain we usually say: “Matu”

    How about Mattwo, Mattou or Mattu!

    Al.

    Well, having a common name is definitely a problem. As a “Chris”, I would know… In my case, if there is more than one Chris in an office, one invariable gets called Chris, while the other gets called Christopher (or something). Might go with Matt and Matthew, Big Matt & Little Matt, New Matt & Old Matt… umm, WelcomeMatt and Mattress… I dunno…

    I used to work for a place that had a similar problem with Mikes and Marcs. When we got our second Mike, we (arbitrarily) decided to start calling him Joe, and by the time we got our third Marc, we started simply indexing them — he was known as “three”.

    What do you call a boy with no arms and no legs in front of a door?

    Matt. :-)

    Which means, you can call him “Stumpy” :-)

    Isn’t it obvious? He should be Matt2 (or MattToo, if you’d rather)

    MT?

    Or is that too ironic?

    Jamie.

    you´re getting the best team around :)
    What will he design?

  • Adam November 22, 2006 @ 5:31 pm

    I think ‘Thommo’ is the obvious choice.

  • Jules November 22, 2006 @ 6:45 pm

    Here’s an idea. Combine what Diego suggested, Matu with the fact that Matt is the second and you get Matt2.

  • Felixe November 22, 2006 @ 7:01 pm

    I think MattM and MattT would do the trick.

  • AM Putra November 22, 2006 @ 7:36 pm

    Just call him O-Thom-Matt

  • Rico November 22, 2006 @ 10:16 pm

    How about “Mat,” with one “T”? :)

  • Dan November 23, 2006 @ 2:15 am

    TOMattic of course.

  • Aaron Brazell November 23, 2006 @ 8:33 am

    Thomas definitely gets the vote for the best suggestion. :)
