Behold the mighty... Tim Ram! (and other stupid names)

[Ghendar]

So, Tarmin was born.

Totally off topic but there was an old Intellivision D&D game called Treasures of Tarmin.

yes, I'm that old.

Back on topic, a guy I gamed with a couple years ago decided to roll up a halfling rogue and named him Gotcher Vwallit (got yer wallet)

IThis very much amused some of the other players at the table. In particular, Craig. He started a joke of always getting Tarmin's name wrong - using other anagrams of Martin. In particular, "Tinram", "Timran", or, miscounting the letters, "Timram".

I wouldn't be able to not make the joke - 'Tim Tam the fighter' ?

during my misspent youth I had a Barbarian named Hakyn Slazh
(and I've used the name Hakyn more than once since)

I wonder why I keep misreading Tim Ram as Tin Ram... and it stirs visions of tin elementals in the form of rams jumping over fences ...

medium rary is still my favorite to read about.

or Male elf = Melf

A friend of mine ran a "drop-in" Saturday morning game at the local comic store awhile ago, and I'd play the NPC cleric when I stopped by. Someone started calling for "medi-vac" whenever they needed the cleric, and thus Amedi Vak was born.

I also intentionally named my archmage character "Toad".

A longtime friend named his first character Chip.

Yeah, he was a monk.

Yeah, the DM killed him quickly.

\I was the DM.

Did the same thing with my very first monk character, decades ago. Also had a ranger named Rodo-roodeh and an arch-villain wizard named Shazbot. Pitiful.

Looking for a name for his halfling rogue, seeing the ad on the back of a Linux Magazine, a friend of mine came up with... Redat.
