R2?

As usual I'm slow at catching up with fandom talk, so forgive me if I'm asking a silly question.

Does anybody know what "R2" stands for?

Also, does anybody remember a quote (I think it is C.C.'s) in which she asks about the "meaning of a meaningless life" or something like that? I've been trying to remember this one for weeks now. I wonder if I dreamed about it...

Really? I always thought it was engrish because it did sound like a C and a two. In the American dub they say C2 (what am I saying? American dub is always made out of fail, sigh.) so I thought they were just 'honoring' the Japanese script/pronunciation.

It is meant to be pronounced C2. It just that there aren't phonetic sounds for "see" and "too" in Japanese. Don't randomly blame the American dub until you have proof they are wrong. Lelouch commented in episode 10 about how "C.C. wasn't a human name" since it was simply a letter and a number.

So it is C2! I didn't mean to seem like I was blaming CG American Dub in particular, I just meant American Dub in general, since they always lack in quality.

And I kinda was referencing American Dub of CG on how they were 'honoring' the japanese phonetics of saying 'C2'.

Sorry if I sounded like I was bashing them x:
