Most Unusual or Outrageous Character or NPC Names

In the Eberron Campaign I play in my character is a Changling Psion(Telepath). So his personality is rather like a Dopplegangers: split many ways. I chose him/her/it partly out of my jealousy of DMs getting to play every different type of character as an NPC, but players being allowed only one single character. The party knows him as "REM" the changeling, but he also has several favorite forms each with their own name. He is sort of like a spy with different aliases for each form. For instance: (with some yet unfinished)
- Ember – a young red headed woman, fiesty, early 20's.
[*]Otion (Ocean) – a high elf, older, snobby, english accent.
[*]Oval - new
[*]Innocence – young boy about 9, big tearful eyes, quiet
[*]Hinder – Rough, bounty hunter
[*]Old Clay – an old dwarf, gruff, rude,
[*]iss - sly, new
[*]Arry – simpleton human male
[*]Mark – strong fighter type
[*]Edy – roguish
- REM ember
- REM otion
- REM oval
- REM iniscense (innocence)
- REM inder (hinder)
- REM old clay
- REM iss
- REM arry
- REM (m)ark
- REM edy

These two are not mine; they're from RPGnet, but I think they deserve reporting.
First: Someone decided to play a cleric, a man of peace, and called him Ghandi. Fairly transparent right there. But Ghandi died, and this player decided to make a different character. Ghandi's evil twin, Snake Ghandi.
The name says it all, really.
Second: This one isn't remotely Grandma-safe, so I'll sprinkle it with pretty stars (and even then it's making my internal language filters queasy). The quintessential PC: Killf**k Soulsh**ter.
Hard to get more focused than that, isn't it?

Well, we rarely use joke names in our group, but we do have two names we usually mention when someone comes up with a really bad name as a hint the name is, well, bad. The names are Bumbi Johnson and Zorro Johnson. Probably the ugliest thing you can ever pronounce in english with a swedish accent, in a swedish sentence.

Once I played a troll who ran an auto shop (shadowrun). His name was Billy-Thong Willgibuses. I don't know what it means either.
