Funny PC names

[DungeonmasterCal]

This isn't a PC name, but the organization our d20 CoC characters are a part of: The British Defence Initiative, or the BDI.

Think about it a sec... that's how long it took me before it hit.

We had a gnomish thief in our AD&D campaign named Jonik. For some reason, everyone took to calling him "Big Daddy J."

Johnathan

In the game 'm currently playing in, my pixie character's name is Nice Sunnyday (which I thought was a perfectly good pixie name). Thing is, the party of which I am the leader, includes a drow, a half feind, a succubus, and other odd creatures. It provides for funny situations when, for example, an Ogre Mage enters one of the 'not-so-fiendly' bars we hang out in asking everybody loudly "Who here is Nice? I'm looking for a Nice Sunnyday!" Of course, I'm really waiting for some cleric to ask me things under Zone of Truth and bluff my way out by just playing dumb and saying "I'm Nice." and having it come out as true.

we have a gnome druid in our group going by the bane of Nob Nab. He invariably gets called Nob Job several times during the game. For those unfamiliar with the term. Nob Job is what Bill Clinton got from Monika.

In one of Trainz campaign I play a female rogue named Y.T. (Yours Truly).

I like it but he don't

Yeah, it's from Snow Crash.

SNow Crash rocks! Another great character name....

Hiro Protagonist!

Back in an AD&D game we played, my half-orc fighter was called Bogron. Everybody else used to call him Bogroll.

Know you, now, in a time before 2nd Edition, a legend was born.

A player created his first dwarf character. Up until this auspicious time, he had never played a dwarf. His DM (me), chastised him for unoriginal names, and encouraged this player to come up with an original, memorable name. And he did. And the world quaked in fear.

"I am... F**k! F**k the Dwarf!"

(I swear, 'tis a true story)

One of my PCs had a svirfneblin henchman named Friggan.

In an old D6 Star Wars game, a friend of mine played a failed jedi named Hassan bin Sobar (thanks to the Three Stooges for that name).

One of these days, I'd love to collaborate with two other players in a Modern game to make three characters with the last names of Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe. It would likely never come up in-game enough to reek, but would linger just enough to elicit a groan now and again.
