I checked and it's not explicitly in the credits, but I could've sworn his village hailed him as Rudolph The Victorious after the attack on the hill people's mines.

You're right: Roxana calls him by name once, too. He's so often referred to as "The Boss" or "The Chief" that it slipped my mind. Good catch!

(It's an interesting choice. I assume it's intended to evoke Germanic echoes, like the accent of the downed enemy pilot in the wartime scene. Roxana shares a name with the Bactrian wife of Alexander the Great, which possibly tells you what Wells thought of him.)

perhaps the future daughter-in-space is a descendant of not only Cabal but Roxana as well. Not to get all O MY HEADCANON or anything.

Too late! I have accepted it. So mote it be.

Good icon.
