Witwicky is a surname frequently used for humans in the Transformers brand.
Contrary to popular belief, Witwicky is a real name... but a vanishingly rare one. The U.S. Social Security Death Index records the passing of only two people with that name in the United States in the last 50 years.[1]
The motto of the Witwicky family (at least the fictional one) is "No sacrifice, no victory," or in latin Absque sui detrimento non datur victoria[2]
