*'''Broke''' -- To go broke is "to become destitute of money or possession". The last name could also be a reference to "her water broke", since Brandi is pregnant when the game starts.
*'''Brandi''' -- Simply means "brandy" from the English word of an alcholicalcoholic drink.
*'''Dustin''' -- From the Old Norse, meaning "Thor's stone"
*'''Beau''' -- Means "beautiful" in French
Line 141:

*'''Marsh''' -- "a tract of low wet land, often treeless, and periodically flooded".
*'''William''' (John's grandfather) -- Popular name meaning "will, desire" and "helmet, protection"
*'''Anastasia''' (John's grandmother) -- Means "ressurectionresurrection"
