Names for the Smoke Monster

Irish Guitarist · 22-02-2010 5:11pm #1

Just wondering if anyone has heard any good names or made up their own names for the Smoke Monster in his present form. I've decided to call him Smokey Lockinson (kind of like soul singer Smokey Robinson). Anyone got any others?

I still prefer Un-Locke. It's a reference to a C.S. Lewis story which may have been an influence on the writers.

I like that one best too. Flocke sounds too soft and cuddly for my liking whereas UnLocke sounds quite menacing.

That was when he was a cloud of smoke. He's a man now so maybe you could call him Manny.

Locke, Doc, Untrue Smokey Beryl

I would love if discovered that MIB's real name was Esau, which accroding to the Hewbrew Bible was Jacobs twin brother. The one thing of love about Lost is the Biblical references and the Mythology surrounding the island.

What was the name of the Man in Black in Stephen King's the Tower?

He went by a few names. Mostly Walter O'Dim in The Dark Tower. And of course Randall Flagg in The Stand.

JerryHandbag · 26-05-2010 12:29pm

Eyjafjallajokull (Icelandic volcano)

Yea I think so, it's probably the most likely one really. I like Cecil though, it's was just started as a joke by a blogger.

I believe this is correct, I watched a clip of a questions and answers session with fans (posted by someone else on this forum, sorry I forget who it was!) where some sort of spokeswoman said that the MIB was called "Samuel" in the scripts. But who knows?

Sad Professor · 27-05-2010 10:02am

Samuel was the name used in the casting call for MIB/Titus Welliver. We've known about that name since season 5. However, they often used fake names in the casting calls. Jacob was called "Jason" for example. But other characters sometimes retained the same names as used during casting. Charlotte, Ilana, etc. So it's hard to say.

It seems the writers just called him Man in Black or simply Locke for the most part. But according to Kristin at Eonline when they wrote Across the Sea they did decide on the name of Samuel. But then changed their minds and decided to leave him nameless.

From Wikipedia:

Samael (Hebrew: סמאל‎) (also Sammael) is an important archangel in Talmudic and post-Talmudic lore, a figure who is accuser, seducer and destroyer, and has been regarded as both good and evil. It is said that he was the guardian angel of Esau and a patron of the empire of Rome.
Also called Sammael and Samil, he is considered in legend both a member of the heavenly host (with often grim and destructive duties) and a fallen angel, equatable with Satan and the chief of the evil spirits. One of Samael's greatest roles in Jewish lore is that of the angel of death. In this capacity he is a fallen angel but nevertheless remains one of the Lord's servants. As a good angel, Samael supposedly resides in the seventh heaven, although he is declared to be the chief angel of the fifth heaven

I always call him "Monster" - but in a Korean accent, from when Jin is on the beach with young Rouso, they here a noise, and he says:
"Run - Monstah!" I alos use this to say others! - "Odahs"!!!:D
