1) Do you like your name?
I'm okay with it.
2) What do you like best about it?
Clean and simple. The only way to maliciously mangle it was done by Monty Python for the last name, and not many people do it to me.
3) What do you like least about it?
There's the part I kept and the part I abandoned. The part I kept: well, too many people hear my name and think it's "Chris", and fixate on that. Plus neither first nor last name translates into the language most of my relatives come from. The part I abandoned? Well, let's just say there's a reason I abandoned it. Make that lots of reasons.
4) If you HAD to change your name (witness protection program, whatever), what would you want it to be?
Hm. For some reason, the name Ethan Cole comes to mind. Don't know why. (And it came to me before I'd heard of Ethan from BtVS, and before that "Charmed" drek even came on the air.)
Close entry.

Mind you, they're also responsible for the notion that all Aussies have your first name...

You know, I completely forgot about that? And that was after working in a place for six years with another guy named Bruce, and commenting every now and again that the place was like a Monty Python Sketch.
And it didn't help that the other Bruce was ... well ...
Let me put it this way. I came to work one morning, and one of the cops greeted me thusly: "Hey, Bruce! I heard you got arrested?"
Which he had.
