Ok, to those German speakers. I have an NPC who is going to go by the name Dr. Feelgood but it's going to be a german character. So how would it be said in German? The character is going to be 'evil' and a bit psychotic, would that make a difference to the translation? Also how would such a character introduce himself to an English speaker?
