    Am I the only that sees a problem with his last name being Morales. It's a spanish last name so it doesn't fit the character... No, wait, I'm not being racist.

    Miles' father is black. His mother is hispanic. Surname is inherited from father. His father being black means he should have a tradtionally black last name...

    Or are we going off the idea that Miles' father is actually half-black/half-hispanic and his father was hispanic, making Miles more hispanic than black...

    I know it's not a big deal, but it always throws me when I think about the character...

    edit: my bad...didn't see the other topic which answers this question ^.^
