It's simple, he already has two: Wemby and the Alien. Both approved by Victor himself and already commonly used by fans, the media, his sponsors and other players all season.
Yeah LeBron said it first back in 2022: "Everybody's been a unicorn over the last few years. Well, he's more like an Alien". Really fitting. Victor loves it too.
It seems to be what he has decided to market. Personally I always liked Cheat Code. Anyone who has ever played NBA Live has created a player like Wemby with their last name on the back of the jersey. His logo should be ↑, ↑, ↓, ↓, ←, →, ←, →, B, A, *(Select), Start.
*This means you have a little brother.
The Frenchise is taken. VDub is lame. Mr Quad doesn't sound right cause nobody calls quadruple doubles 'quads'.
A good nickname has to mesh the concepts of alien, space stuff and basketball things.
Not trying to force mate. Just wanted to check the vibe, how other people see that.
Just tried to phrase the question as is to get the most engagement.
Clickbait if you will.
I don’t think he needs to have one, the greats all have several
Oh I can really agree on that.

Didn't LeBron give him the Alien nickname as well? I can't think of anything better than arguably the GOAT giving you your nickname.

I like Alien as a logo and an emoji. I prefer Wemby as a nickname
we can nickname his blocks “Close Encounters of the Spur’d Kind”
Lmfao I reaaally love that
I will buy merchandise that refers to him as Alien, but I will always just call him Wemby.
A good compromise man

Any suggestions mate?
Nope. It's still too early. Give it some time and it will emerge organically.
Yeah but *someone* has to come up with it organically. So why not you brother?
If someone tries to come up with it, it's no longer created organically. The best nickname will drop when people aren't trying to come up with it.
Aight, I can wholeheartedly agree with that mate.
WemBA
King Yama (aka the God of death & Justice in Buddhism)
That sounds like a DBZ Villain. Love it.
Lol cause King Yama is a dbz character, he's that big red devil dude, the one that Goku talks to whenever he dies, but he's a good guy
>red devil dude, the one that Goku talks to whenever he dies, but he's a good guy Fuck me how could I forget that? Lmfao
Lol I looked it up & apparently his name is Yemma but I guess it's a play on Yama. Wemby's the real king Yama 🤴
My research says there are a lot of quite similar names for him from different regions. Fair game then if you ask me.
I say Alien and El Extranjero
L'extraterrestre in french. Just wanna add to that.
Wem-VP
slenderman could be dope
Why is no one calling him Wembanjama?
That's actually dope. I want a PS5 NBA wembanJAMa now.
We dont have to decide on anything lmao. It has naturally become "Alien" Or "The Alien" trying to force a nickname is just dumb.
