Re: Spider & Piers
I would think Spider would appeal to hipsters or comic-book nerds. It's "bad-ass" I've seen and heard so many ridiculous names that it really wouldn't surprise me at all to meet a Spider. And I can totally see the parents who would use such a name.
The moral of Pete's story is: No matter what you step in, keep walking along and singing your song... because it's all good.

I feel like there is always a baddie in cheesy movies called Spider who has a spiderweb tattoo. Did he get the nickname first or the tattoo? Who knows. Piers is nice, not really to my taste, but there is nothing wrong with it. It makes me think of Piers Morgan. Could you split the difference and use the name Peter?

I can't remember his full name, but I remember hearing a security expert of some kind interviewed on CNN several times who was introduced as " ... James "Spider" Lastname."
What with so many people so afraid of spiders, a person named Spider is going to have a hard time.
