minus-square@ForthEorlingas@lemmy.fmhy.mllinkfedilink16•2 years agoPer Lemmy’s GitHub Why’s it called Lemmy? Lead singer from Motörhead. The old school video game. The Koopa from Super Mario. The furry rodents.

minus-squareagentsaclinkfedilink2•2 years agoLemmy Koopa was actually named after Lemmy from Motörhead. In fact, most of the Koopalings were named after musicals.
minus-square@ForthEorlingas@lemmy.fmhy.mllinkfedilink1•2 years agoHuh. I didn’t know that. To be honest, I didn’t know that there was a Koopa named Lemmy until I looked at their github either. I’ve never played Mario.
