If by ruin you mean make totally awesome, I hope my players enjoy coming up against exploding Bombies.

 

[PirateSwayze]

Rust Monster → Dust Monster
Ice Devil → Nice Devil
Green Hag → Green Ham (making it likely she'll be devoured by Sam-I-Am)
Hobgoblin → Hobnoblin
Gray Ooze → Gray Booze

I have always preferred the Nobgoblin to the Hobnoblin

 

[Dungeonosophy]

Hobgoblin → Sobgoblin (poor dear)
Hobgoblin → Hobogoblin (another poor feller who's down on his luck)
Giant Ant → Giant Aunt (the reason we built a bigger guest bedroom)
Doppleganger → Dopplegander (a male goose who can shapeshift to look just like you, and then throttles you mercilessly)
Pit Fiend → Pith Fiend (a devil made of the soft, spongy inner tissue of vascular plants)
Dragon / Dragonne → Dragonn (when a dragon and dragonne mates. Nearly indistinguishable.)

 

[opacitizen]

Beholder → Be older
Orc → Orb
Troll → Stroll
Dragon → Drag on

 

[MattW]

Bugbear → Busbear (a bear that is encountered on public transport)
Carrion Crawler → Carrion Trawler (the aquatic version that uses nets)
Dire Wolf → Dice Wolf (It eats the dice you've lost)
Flesh Golem → Flash Golem (a REALLY fast golem)
Gas Spore → Gag Spore (looks like a Beholder, is really a "whoopee cushion")
Gelatinous cube → Gelatinous Cub (a young bear made of jelly)

Not my first thought when I read “flash” golem...

 

[Deset Gled]

Sphanx - Minor demon that hides under the skirts of other demons.
Fun Gus - A guy who's great at parties.
Phantom Fun Gus - That guy that everyone says is awesome, but never seems to arrive. As in, "We waited hours for Gus, Tino, and Godot, but they never showed".
Why Vern - Why you gotta do your old buddy Ernest like that? What did I ever do to you, Vern?
Svirfneblin - This one is so obvious I don't know why no one else posted it yet.

 

[Dannyalcatraz]

Rust Monster => Rush Monster (it does NOT have time for your BS!)

Phoenix => Phonenix (destroyer of telecommunications)

Umber Hulk => Ember Hulk (They are the firestarters)

Umber Hulk => Amber Hulk (petrified translucent lightweight and flammable animated resin creatures that sometimes contain the remains of their victims)

Owlbear => Awlbear (they’re using tools!)
