Call me a dick if you want, but there's nothing more annoying than seeing a million Drizzt, Kermit, Aragorn, Baelzebub and Cthulu variations out there, except a crew of people like "Princessice" or "Lorddemerath Of'Theskycity"

I'm a confessed name Nazi. Although since they now allow the ' in surnames I pretty much ignore names that make sentences.
What's amazing to me are some that never get popped. There are names on Nek that are clear and obvious copyright or trademark violations, and yet no one cares a whit even when you include a link to the copyright (or trademark) owner. And yet Bonaparte got his name changed 'cause they clamed it was a character from popular culture, ha. (I didn't report that one, I think he pissed someone off)
