Here is a website i found that was pretty cool to me. see what yall think?
http://www.geocities.com/Hollywood/Theater/9175/neo/matrixnames.html

That was pretty interesting. He must of carried out alotta research on that. I knew the matrix had alot of relation to the bible but I didn't actually pick out where and how but that page has sown me quite a bit. Very interesting.

I think Smith's license plate in one of the movies had significance, pointing out a relevant biblical passage...I'll see if I can track this down.

Here we are. It's his license plate in Reloaded when he gives the earpiece to Neo.
Plate number: IS5416
Isaiah 54:16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.

Sweetness, I must keep an eye out the next time I get around to watching any of the matrix films
-
I don't think that I could have even concieved that that could have meant anything.

Smith's license plate is symbolic in fact. It says "IS 5416". In the King James Bible, Isaiah 54:16 says: "Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and bringeth forth an instument for his work; and I have the waster to destoy."
...Pretty nifty.
I also found this rather interesting
After Cypher betrays his friends, he tells the agent that he wishes to come back as someone famous, an actor, he wants to be powerful, and he wants to remember nothing. Now, the agent calls Cypher Mr. Reagan, so Cypher could be Ronald Reagan. He was famous, an actor, was very powerful and since he has Alzheimers, he can't remember anything.
There's also this: Neo's apartment number in the first Matrix is #101. Room 101 was the place in George Orwell's novel 1984, where people were sent to be tortured, and would end up believeing something that wasn't true. Coincidence?...And also this one: The room that Trinity is found at the very beginning of the first movie is number 303. If you think about what the word TRINITY stands for than that makes perfect sense.
There's a very cool website called http://eeggs.com where you can find tons of hidden symbols, scenes, cameos in almost any movie out on DVD.

People obviously put a lot of thgouht into the Matrix storylines and other films possibly too. I was thinking of changing my name. I said before that I wanted to change it but the name I wanted was actually used in the films. I thought the name Dose was quite good, or Overdose. Overdose was one of my Original names in UT2K3 but I like Dose. Give me your opinion.

Weird, the exact same info is posted everywhere on the net, so I doubt he came up with all that.
It's interesting stuff though.
