I think Stormborn already stated "Ravager of Worlds". Spot on.

I once played a dwarven fighter, named Robert Den Hero.
When you say this half-Dutch, half-English name in a somewhat quicker way, it is pronounced similar to that of a famous actor...
All I can say, I found it funny at that time.
(by the way, he died. My very first PC casualty, actually).

the Flippant
the Wise
the Not-so-Wise
the Jolly
the Rotund
the Wielder of (insert favorite something)
the Creater
the Destroyer
the Defender
the Merciful
the Magnificent
all of the town/country names added to the end add some class as long as your not from somewhere with a crummy name. I suppose even then it can be funny.
Some of these might have been said before and I'm sorry if borrowed yours, its 3 in the morning over here and my brain isn't working at full speed yet.

Unfortunate Royal Nicknames
Posted in History by Greg Ross on May 4th, 2005
Everyone knows Richard the Lion-Hearted and William and Conqueror. Here's a list of less auspicous royal nicknames:
"Charles the Bad" (Charles II of Navarre)
"William the Bastard" (William I of England)
"Coloman the Bookish" (Coloman of Hungary)
"Alfonso the Chaste" (Alfonso II of Aragon)
"Peter the Ceremonious" (Peter IV of Aragon
"Edmund the Deed-Doer" (Edmund I of England)
"Henry the Fat" (Henry III of Champagne)
"Louis the Indolent" (Louis V of France)
"Edgar the Outlaw" (Edgar Atheling)
"Constantius the Pale" (Constantius Chlorus)
"Louis the Sluggard" (Louis V of France)
"Garcia the Trembler" (Garcia II of Navarre)
Worst of all: "Constantine the Dung-Named," Byzantine emperor from 741 to 775. Supposedly he defecated in his baptismal font in 718. Nice going.

Swift-footed Godlike Achilles
Hector the Manslayer
Ajax the Wall of the Achaeans
yes, the Iliad has it right.
There are some other good British royal nicknames as well:
Ethelred the Unready (from the Saxon for 'bad advice')
Alfred the Great (only British monarch to be called the Great)
Edward the Confessor
Edward Longshanks (aka Hammer of the Scots)
John Lackland (aka John Softsword, aka Bad King John)
Bloody Mary
France has had Charles the Hammer, Charles the Great (Charlemagne), Charles the Bald and Charles the Mad (who thought he was made of glass).
