It is amazing how things tend to morph -- E-S (Engine-Serang) does have that sense of Royalty with the hyphenated name, ES (EngineSerang) is not technically correct from a grammatical point of view, so, at his request, would we refer to him as E S (Engine Serang) Of course, when we get to know him better, we can be on a first name basis and just call him Engine.
