Ever since the man who probably wasn’t John Drake (even the creators differ on this matter) awoke in The Village to be dubbed Number Six, it has been all the rage to have a Number Name.

Whether Daredevil’s frenemy Number Nine or Android 21 who searches for Dragon Balls, numerals abound, leading to today’s dehumanizing query…
The MS-QOTD (pronounced, as always, “misquoted”) wants to know, are those Beagle Boys jeans you’re wearing, asking: What fictional character (of any provenance) has the coolest Number Name?
