Presumably, film-makers have calculated that we can accept people with superpowers, we can accept that they’d use those superpowers to have mid-air punch-ups with each other, and we can accept that they’d dress in brightly coloured jumpsuits while doing so. But as for funny names ... that would just be childish. To paraphrase the slogan of “Superman: The Movie”, “You’ll believe a man can fly—but not if he’s called Superman.”

Thoughts?
