We play a lot with names.
One NPC was "Agamom", which was supposed to be a shortened Agamemnon. Unfortunately the GM sometimes forgot, and the Achian Warrior King would stride across our battle field.
What's more, there was a published mod with Obinar, who was variously Obama-nar or O'Bummer, depending on the situation.
I named dragons with various Gaelic proper names. Poor "Scheivenamon" had is name tortured so badly...
At the moment, I'm dealing with a number of anime fans, so I take names from either the original or the English dub and tweek them when they are dealing with characters based on a given anime. Some of my names have turned out to have unfortunate meanings in Japanese. Oh well.
