I don't hate the name, but I can't say this really sold me on it either. I liked the way he was written, though.

It's his actual name. It's not even really a codename :p.

And its not even for the dragon (which would have been over the top, but at least understandable), its for the freakin' duck. Cue the Darkwing Duck intro!

A Goose is better. I mean, when you decide to choose an aquatic bird... They're the meanest ones I can think about.
Ducks are very cute, though.

Same, I just wish he kept the Red Robin moniker with his cowl pre-52.
It made him stand out from the rest of the pack.
So how long until they kill him? Dido said he would never kill a Robin, so this was almost certainly done so they can kill him.

He's going to get shot in the head and forget who he is and go by Jim Drake.
Ya, this is stupid. At this point I would rather see him retire, like his original intention was, once he finished his stint as Robin, he would retire. Well thanks to DC they prematurely retired him. He hasn't been the same since Damian came into the picture. Thanks a lot. Fuck The Drake, the fearsome, super scary Drake. Woooo.

Tim the Drake, ...the dark, ...the fearsome, ...the scary, ....The [B]Danger Duck![/B] [I]is[/I] extreme!

Honestly I actually don't really have that big of a problem with the name.
Its the new costume that I really can't stand.
Neither the name nor the costume is what I'd consider ideal; but I can live with it.
That said, if the five-year gap theory turns out to be true, I'll be perfectly fine if the 5G version of Tim hangs up his costume and just goes by “Detective Tim Drake” and does crimefighting in the style of the Question.
Tims in a REAL awkward position no doubt.
But why name yourself after your evil counterpart ? Especially one who's clearly an idiot since he thinks Ducks are "the most dangerous bird".
I mean besides the obvious corporate/marketing shenanigans
The Name is not a problem, the reasons are... so stupid.
The new costume is the real issue.
