I've made up many names for my Civs, depending on my mood. One was Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees, Dork of the Morons, etc.
It makes the game more interesting for me, I guess!

I used to name my Civ's leader after my cat (Zorro) and then name the cities after various cat toys/food/etc.

Ever since I had to get rid of the cat, I just use the default names. It's just not the same.

Sadly, I did the same thing in SMAC. The capital city was the S**tBox.

I am Mister Yanghead (as in that mister to you buddy ) of the Canadians. I use America and change all the city names. I just wish you could turn of Abes idiot grin. I have also played as Overlord Len of the Lenoans, capitol city Lenoa, next city Adamski, just variations on my names. Tend to create my own "persona" be line for comunism, stuff like that.

If I remember right, there are no recorded images of him smiling. Not surprising considering the circumstances of his presidency and his times.

You're right though, the smile is goofy. In fairness to the artists, he looks so stern in all the recorded images we do have that figuring out how to make the smile had to be a challenge.

There are a couple of leaderhead images I have problems with (particularly Tokugawa), but overall I have to say they're well done and some are quite funny.

I play as Daryl of the Sylvanians. I haven't lived in Pennsylvania since I was 8, so Civ is kind of my way of honoring my roots!

Smirnov was the original name. Smirnoff is the Frenchified version that most people are familiar with.

Actually, Smirnov is the real thing from Russia, while Smirnoff is a poor American copy.
