Which is "Peace Hunter" in Latin. Pax mean peace (as in pax romana) and Orion is the hunter from Greek mythology.

Makes sense with how Prime's personality is. All he ever wants is peace.

Not in TFA.

It might've been. Remember, he wasn't always a lowly Space Bridger repairman. He started off in the Elite Guard but was drummed out after the incident with Black Arachnia. So before he joined up his name might've been Orion.

In Autoboot camp everyone that enlists is given a new name, that probably included Orion becoming Optimus. I bet he was given the name for being optimistic.

I would say we're getting off subject, but Animated had a JAM Project intro so I think we're safe

According to TF Wiki, he got the name Optimus from the get go. No rename.

I've been watching Sankarea lately. This show is pretty darn weird so far. The whole zombie girl fetish is kinda...

I'm watching Grendizer on Youtube...in Arabic(?). It sounds...ok enough. The subs are clear-cut and at least they didn't try localizing the names. I mean what would you call Duke Freed in Arabic? Amir Herat?

I really miss Transformers Animated. It was canceled too soon because it was such a good series. In fact, I think it is the best TF series ever, and the best since Beast Wars.
