Mac Barnett: Hi, my name is Mac Barnett. My first name is Mac, M A C. It's a weird name, not many people have it. And so a lot of times people call me Matt or Max or even Nick, which I don't even think sounds like my name, but I get that a lot. Also in a lot of old movies you'll hear it, just people calling each other Mac as a nickname, so when I watch old things and somebody's like, "Hey, move it Mac," it always sounds like people are talking to me in the 1930s. I really like my name a lot. I liked it especially because it was so short, if I ever got the top score in an old arcade game I could always put my whole name in because it was only three letters long.
