radio vendors they give them an American nickname (because half the time the US folks can't pronounce the Japanese name).
So this one guy comes and he's a software guy. His manager gives him a project that should take him a month or better. Dude comes back the next day and has the code all written and compiled. It's perfect.
So his manager gives him an even bigger project, hoping to keep him busy for a while and out of his hair. Dude again returns the next day with the code written and compiled. Runs flawlessly.
They decided his American nickname would be "Kenny" from Southpark.
And began working on getting him an office with a window.
