We know the D. is for Dušan, but out of curiosity I was wondering what does the M. stand for...

Does anyone know?

And here I was thinking that "DM" stood for "Dungeon Master."

I got my information from Marty, so it might well be wrong.

it stands for my middle name, which happens to be Mark. A name I could have gone by my whole life if I had wanted to avoid a certain degree of mocking. I didn't, as my first name came from my grandfather (I was named after him). I really use only use my middle name at sandwich places when they ask what name to call out when my order is ready.

Of course, now we need to see "The Mark of the Lefty Ninja!"

So your full name is: `Philosophiæ Doctor Dušan Mark Jeftnija.' Maybe it is because I am not an English native speaker, but I think it sounds nice.

you missed the first i in Jeftinija, but otherwise that's pretty close, yeah. Thanks.

I can't wait until we get to call you Professor Doctor Legostar. (which, I insist your students call you!)

that would be easier for them than using my real name, i guess, but.... no.

you can call me that if you like though.

Ops... I cannot believe I missed that `i' for all this years!
Sorry for the mistake. Moreover the correct name is also easier to say...

About `Philosophiæ Doctor Dušan Mark Jeftinija' and `Doctor Legostar'... I guess the second name applies here: after all it is your forum name...
But I guess it would sound pretty disrespectful from a student, at least in normal conversation.
