Thor-John was assigned his codename through unpleasant circumstances. While he is not of Norse decent, Thor-John is
fascinated with of thunder and rain and has always been interested in the mythology of Thor. Thor by itself would have been a plenty acceptable code name. Unfortunately for Thor-John, when he was approached for a position with X-Troop by Phoenix, she had to locate him through his emergency
cell phone's unanswered signal. His cell phone was with him at the time however as Thor-John in a public toilet with a prostitute. If X-Troop hadn't been in dire need of a mechanized troop specialist, he would've lost the offer immediately. Instead, Phoenix privately settled with Thor-John by assigning an
embarrassing - if puzzling to his team members - code name and a reduced rank in the chain of command.
