Best character name?

[Klaus]

I had two Shadowrun characters with neat names: Juan Jesus Rodriguez, and The Edge (after the U2 guitar player).

My first D&D character was a Paladin named Bulldozer Crane.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Among many, many other names, I'm thinking about Juss Fagiggles.

 

[Mallus]

The best name I've ever heard, and I say this with all absent modesty, is my old M&M2e character: Joséirus, the Egyptian God of Mexican Wrestling.

My current 4e campaign has some good ones, too, though.

Heyoka Jumps-Off-Mountains
Geppetto Jack Fagin (he comes complete w/a gang of clockwork orphans)
Mr. Odanais Dare
Vox Cadaveris
Pæetros Paranova the Porcophant
Roxy Hurrah (she's a drag queen)

 

[MortonStromgal]

Justin Tyme - Super hero speed guy

 

[Herschel]

Hungover and had to name a cleric: Teanoe (TNO)

Tim, the sorcerer.

 

[radmod]

So, reading these I realize maybe I'm not so bad at name creation. Puns seem to be a favorite.

NPC healing Cleric:
Bartholomew Terrie, aka 'Bat' Terrie

 

[Mark Hope]

I have been blessed with several players over the years who insisted on ridiculous names for their characters. Amongst these names have been such diverse elements as:
Acid Popper Caligula Caesar
Ustinov the Unthwarted
Sister Vulva Deathmace Salladan Frizbee and her brother...
Tracheotomy Sharpsword Devastator Frizbee "The Duck"
Kiryakov Kalashnikov
Binky Spazz
Ivan Itdropoff the Medalliognome
Melons Stoatpamphlet
McDeath
Mouse the Starr
Capillia Reaction
Reversible Reaction
Lyman Lemon I through III
Gaffaths I through VIII
Ferencvaros Kharkov
King Kong Bundy (who later became plain old GBH)
Cujo the Cavalier
Faro-ut (a far-out name, if there was one)
Ghut
The Soulkicker Drakmar Kranmar Kalanyin, Lord of Glantri, Hero of Haven, Balrog Deceiver, Slayer of Gorgimera, Defeater of Death, Blessed by Dragons, Hero of Northending, Vampire Killer, Carrier of the Egg of the Phoenix, Slayer of Shadow Dragons, Slicer of Hezrou, Lich Bane, Eradicator of the Wormplague, Walker through the Arches of the Infiniverse, Seducer of Succubi, Deceiver of Blackwing, Walker of Worlds.
and a dwarf called Noddy.

I hate players.

Tracheotomy Sharpsword Devastator Frizbee "The Duck"

Aren't these from Cowboy Bebop?

Mouse the Starr

That's actually kinda nice.

I hate players.

Look at it this way, at least they're entertaining!

Aren't these from Cowboy Bebop?

If they are, then Cowboy Bebop stole them from my game. The game in question took place in 1986. The player who played both of these characters claimed that he chose the names at random from a medical dictionary without knowing what the words actually meant. We had fun explaining what a vulva was to him

That's actually kinda nice.

This was a character belonging to an ex-gf of mine (although she wasn't yet my gf when she played). Only played once, as a drop-in one-off and was handed a terribly butch and mighty paladin by the DM to play. "I want to call him Mouse," she said. "You can't call him Mouse," the DM replied. "He's a mighty paladin." She thought for a moment. "OK, then," she said. "Mouse the Starr."

Look at it this way, at least they're entertaining!

Yes, there is that, I suppose
