20 Things You Somehow Missed In The Matrix
2. Coppertop
In another deft piece of foreshadowing (although admittedly not very subtle) Cypher calls Neo a seemingly innocuous, but actually very apt, name during their first meeting. "Listen to me, coppertop! We don't have time for 'twenty questions."
Coppertop might not jump out initially, given that Neo has dark hair, but it's actually a common slang term for Duracell-branded batteries. Given that, at the time of this meeting, Neo is still plugged into the Matrix and is, thus, being used by and machines as a living battery, Cypher's name is absolutely bang on. Not that Neo would have had any idea why.
