Heck, just take a look at my username...

eric mcloins - human swashbuckler (a la 2e)

I also played a carribean-style canibal monk called "Two Running Dogs".
Of course everyone called my character "Three ****ing Cats", but that's another thing.

I had a player who played a minotaur named "Rrrrrr"....

I'll always remember a friend's character: Herc Stormbringer, master of chains. He once rolled for random properties for his intelligent spiked chain, obtaining "special purpose: destroy plants". Fear Herc Stormbringer and his mighty weed whacker!

. . . but it seems to be irresistible to make fun of names in my group . . .

One of my players consistently butchers the other characters names. A fighter named Ahmose is now called "Almost", and our deceased sorcerer Easttuth was christened "Izzy."

As for punny names, I once ran a group called "Coal Black and the Short People." The party was led by a drow cleric and the rest were made of gnomes, dwarves, and even an uldra.

Oh, and either I or my brother had a monk named Adidas (way back in 1e).

Wee Jas.

Yeah, I know she isn't a character, but I honestly can't take a god of death with so silly a name seriously.

She's not so bad. You should see her brother Hugh.

Am I the only DM who specifically targets poorly named characters for an early death (that is, after the players ignore my very specific pre-game warnings)?

 

[GravyFingerz]

I played a half-orc fighter/barbarian named Krotch the Defiler.

He lived up to his name, defiling a brass dragon, a displacer beast, and a few other monsters I cannot remember.

That was the best three games. Evar.

 

[Angel Tarragon]

When I first got into gaming (my freshman year of high school - '91) I created my very first character for AD&D 1st edition, a thief named Picpoc Oploc. Thank god I've gotten more creative with my character names since then.

 

[robberbaron]

I had a 1e Ranger called Araldite, son of Armalite and a Gnome Illusionist called Bundleby.

Also, I had a character in a sci-fi game called Genevieve d'Arreau, nickname 'Poison'.
