Alex & Steve

Steve (right) debuted as the default skin for the player's
avatar in Minecraft. Initially nameless, when the
franchise creator was asked by a fan on Twitter
if he had a name, to which he jokingly replied "Steve?".
The name quickly began to be adopted by the fanbase
and eventually by Mojang Studios themselves.
Originally intended to be gender neutral character,
a more feminine model was introduced as Alex (left).
