9.3 x 51 sounds good, and most people would probably work out that it is a 9.3 on the .308 case. 93Jimbo sounds a bit....retarded.
It's clear you didn't read through the entire thread before posting.
It's a fact of life that all of us pass away at some point in time. People who have had no relationship to the deceased or if the deceased's contribution to society was not considered a great deal more than the ordinary, aren't going to feel the same degree of sentimentality towards that person as those who were close to them. Therefore, naming something after them really needs to sound good without having to resort to an explanation of why it is named that way.
