The player's name

Would it be possible to decide on a definitive name instead of edit warring about it? To set the facts straight, the player character is not clearly given any name in-game (setting any theories aside): the player is prompted by HandUnit to input the name they see above them, which is "Mike", but the keypad is glitched and does not accept the player's inputs. HandUnit then "autocorrects" what the player wrote, which always ends up being "Eggs Benedict". Referring to them as "Eggs" is funny and technically the closest thing to a name that the game provides, but it's incredibly misleading to say that the player character is called "Eggs Benedict" without any explanation.

Reversinator; I would say provide a source, however looking into it I think I've found the source you need. (Kotaku) states "in an early sequence...the system glitch out and misinterpret [the player] as 'Eggs Benedict'," while also it states "to give you some background: In Sister Location, you play as Mike the janitor..." Hope this helps! Adog104 ^{Talk to me} 02:34, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, apologies. The sequence where the player must input a name is one of the first events in the game, but I hadn't thought to provide a source. Markiplier, among many others, has done a playthrough of the game, and while it does edit certain bits to save time, every piece of dialogue is heard including the aforementioned "Eggs Benedict" sequence, beyond any easter eggs that may exist. With that in mind, I'm not sure if calling the player character "Mike" is the correct options, since their name is never directly acknowledged. The HandUnit tells the player to input the name seen at the top of the keypad (which is Mike, written in black sharpie on a white piece of tape, but considering the secretive nature of the game, it is very likely that the player character is not named Mike.
