Pronounced e-kid-na. An echidna is a spiny anteater found in and around Australia. Here’s a picture.
They have some at the Los Angeles Zoo. They’re very cute in person. They kind of waddle when they walk. Several years ago, some friends of mine and I started a company. After 3 days of trying to come up with a name we finally settled on "Echidna." The biggest reason being that we liked the logo John had drawn for it. It was something like this.
Since that time I started using Echidna as my callsign or alias on the net. It hasn’t been a very good one because most people don’t know what it is or how to pronounce it. They say things like e-chid-na or enchilada. This is been the source of much laughter for my friends. Anyway, I need a new callsign. Got any ideas?

how about Knuckles?
except for the fact that Knuckles (the Sega Character) came out about 5 years AFTER we had came up with this. I suppose if we had called our company Knuckles maybe we could have sued :-p
hey dont change it! I like it because its like enigma, but not quite.. and softer.. all you have to do is make the logo more of a hint!!
I also like the anteater by the way, cute things work well.
listen to yourself the most. dont doubt yourself thomas!!-or: whats your name again?!

I like Knuckles! Anyway, one of the reasons I play Sega Sonic games is because Knuckles is an echidna and I really like echidnas, even though I have never seen one in person. Don’t blame me if there are any grammer errors, because I’m only 12 years old and this is one of the first times I am writing something like this on tne internet.
PS: Love that echidna logo!
SPLAZz.
Nothing ever approached the value of tUME. I see these young hacks struggle with texture tiles now and I wish we had a tool that could manage projections and a materials and texture library as well as that tool did.

I luv Knuckles and Tikal. That’s manley the reason I play sonic games.
Echidnas are cute, but at first I didn’t how to pronouce it.
It’s weird. Knux and Tikal look nothin like echhidnas, but that’s just my opinyion.
BTW-If Shadow, Sonic, and Silver are all hedgehogs than why is Sonic the only one w/out chest fur?
how about Tynea?
Do echidnas have a beak thingy or a mouth like hedghogs?
cause knuckles and tikal dont look like the real echidnas!
