I'd not mind a Grant. though my cousins would probably not mind Brandt, Brent, Brondt, or Kymme.
Brant (funny enough, I typed this before reading the next comic)
lol, whos in the bush in the first panel XD
Emily’s hair has grown out, and she has some really weird contacts in.
Moray doesn't even have printer paper.
maybe his name is actually Gronk. or Grönk.
who's hiding in the bushes
Tamika Flynn took its head off
"New Librarian" just makes me think... what happened to the old librarian :P
Gront! Klaatu barada nikto!
Pretty sure Jeph missed an "s" in panel 3.
As someone else mentioned, not the first time that I think we've seen the Creeper: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4935 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4960 https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4959
Nice finding!
Jeph, where’d the links to other comics go? You’ve been my morning routine since the ‘40s: open QC, read QC, use links to read Diesel Sweeties, Gunnerkrigg, Qwantz, and XKCD!
I know! C'mon, man! Pleeeeeeeeeeaazzze? :)
"My name is [DESIGNATED_NAME]! Everyone just calls me Des for short..."
A+, very good joke, i love this
There needs to be more Gronts in the world.
A name-tag printing license?
As long as you can lookup your own name on it, that will suffice, yes.
Also this is why I have a license.
"Barnt"? Or maybe "ProMetal Fan Decor Only Product"? Or both? https://barnt.bandcamp.com/album/prometal-fan-decor-only-product

Those are goblin eyes. They can't hide and it's no surprise. They have goblin eyes.
Panel 1: Who's that lurking around behind the bushes?
Yessss. I was just gonna ask that myself. Better call Evan! Have her bring the squirt gun.
My name' Grant. Me robot.
Bush Creeper seems to have OG Spookybot-style snake eyes.
"You didn't set aside 8 bytes for _your own name_?"
A name's just a 4 letter word? *goes and searches through his music library*
Who is the sneaky looker in panel 1?
Marten's new friend, obviously /s. He has a habit of befriending stalkers.
My name is what? My name is who? My name is... Hey now, I'm an all star! https://youtu.be/rqv-urqL8a0
This is the most impressive case of "Bad With Names" I've ever seen!
His name is Bort! (my son also happens to be Bort!) 🤣
simply create a file called name.txt in your home directory
But they are on a cloud based system and share some core system files or something.
it will come to them
Grant etc. reminds me strangely of the Presger Translators from Ann Leckie's *Ancillary Sword*. Is he/she/they/it looking at a cheat sheet on their right hand to read their name?
Watch his name be something like Steve.
He gives me 'Carl' energy. Fuckin' CARL...
Hey! If you want to fuck me, you have to kiss me first.
oh my god it’s BRONT
They're good dogs
It really says something about this place when I am genuinely unsure whether "My name' Grant" is a typo or just his thing
HI GRUNT
Hmm... does this count as a new named character?
As of now? He works as three new characters and counting, so yes. :)
Clearly his name is Gary
I feel like this place is such a madhouse that even Marten might have good job prospects, which is as damning a statement as I've ever uttered. It'd be hilarious if he gets scouted for some organizational position while Claire is trying to understand the macro-scale lunacy.
Why would Marten have bad job prospects? He has never shown up at work drunk, held a rave at his workplace or threatened a customer with a harpoon.

You gotta add more stank and lisp in there! I BRUNT! EFF SCHE AY!
Bort?
Bront
I'm great with names. The problem is that other people are bad at naming.
Perhaps the lurker in panel 1 is named Kate, and will pop out to do a song and dance in a red dress.
Vell, Zaphod's just zis guy, you know?
Marten sure does seem to know where is towel is of late
All of the years he's spent befriending the strangest Northampton has to offer has prepared Marten for Cubetown.
The real question we all have: Is Cubetown ready for... The Librarian.
I spy a bush-gremlin in panel one!
Yeah, wat's wid dat?
I did not expect a surprise cameo in QC...
I'm whooshed. Explain?
What does all the tizzy about Claire say for any prior candidates for The Librarian?
That they all backed out at the first red flag.
Nice to meet you, Breng.
He's Just Like Bart
Bort?
I kinda want the whole cast of QC to move to Cubetown…
Maybe they are, and Northampton is a simulation...
CoD's second location
They could set up a stable portal between the two!
Bush lady!
Spagett?
It would explain why they're sold out of souvenir "Gront" license plates at the gift shop.
My son is also named Gront
Zaphod

I'm terrible with names, too. But I get my own right over 80% of the time, so there's that.
Hoping for a coffee shop run by Raven and Emily!
Creeper spotted, panel 1!!
Could that be Emmett?
Absent minded AIs. Oh jeez.
Grunt
they're good names, Grunt
the inverse of yay
You mean the opposite of Pintsize. Maybe his real name is Litré.
My name’ Grant
My’ name’ Andrew’
