According to dictionary.com:
Reacher could be taken to mean "to succeed in making contact with, influencing, impressing, interesting, convincing, etc" whilst Gilt implies Gilded "having a pleasing or showy appearance that conceals something of little worth. " --[[User:Megahurts|Megahurts]] 12:41, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

I wonder if "Reacher" means a tall person, and "Gilt" means a precious metal, then perhaps the name could be a reference to one of the most famous of literary pirates, Long John Silver? It was, after all, Silver's parrot "Captain Flint", who was known for saying "Pieces of eight!" [[User:Shalom S.|Shalom S.]] ([[User talk:Shalom S.|talk]]) 16:45, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
