#moreso than you might if he'd just had some generic semi-common surname

i seem to recall reading somewhere that wrong organ designed the physical appearance of post-crash curly first out of all the characters, which makes total sense because just look at him holy shit what a design. and i also like to think that, due to his appearance intending to evoke shock and discomfort, they also very purposefully chose the silliest-sounding and most tonally dissonant name for him that they possibly could. this agonized bare-toothed grimace, this omnipresent lidless eye, this living beacon of pain, his name is... curly. it's like if konami designed pyramid head and then called him "boppo." ...or "pyramid head"
