    Ah, this is the one you were referring to. One wonders how he could ever think this was a good name!

    Wonder if he likes Porky the Pig.

    Or, being like the majority of Hong Kong Chinese who were perhaps not really exposed to Looney Tunes during childhood, Porky Chan may likely have got his name cue from being extremely partial to eating charsiu and pork-related products!
