==Fallen Shank Naming Inspiration?==


I was kinda wondering where Bungie got the name "Shank" for a Fallen unit. At first, I thought maybe it was a sort of nod to [[wikipedia:Michael Shanks|Michael Shanks]], who portrayed Dr. Daniel Jackson on Stargate SG-1. Then, when I looked up [[wikipedia:Shank|Shank on wikipedia]], I got several hits, but the only possible inspiration would probably be the slang name for a [[wikipedia:Shiv (weapon)|shiv]], which is a makeshift knife. But that's all I came up with. Further information would be most welcome. --[[User:Xamikaze330|Xamikaze330]] ([[User talk:Xamikaze330|talk]]) 12:18, 2 August 2013 (EDT)Xamikaze330
