Thiago Aragão de Abreu
Gen 6""Baiano" in Portuguese is representative of someone born in the Brazilian state of Bahia. The typical Bahia person is often depicted as a lazy character in Brazilian satire, it was this quality that got Thiago his nickname after a childhood event, when one of his friends passed by his house to call him but Thiago was fast asleep. Abreu is also nicknamed "Paraíba" by some of his friends, this usually reflects someone with unusual strength (and slightly empty headed) also within Brazilian popular culture."
