but what i hate the most is the frog names. i still remember this live event and the amount of kermits, it just bugs the shit out of me for no reason.

Kermitt, Cermit, chermitt, kermittt, kerrrmit. I mean on mistmoore there were like 100 fucking kermits hopping around. the only frog names i did giggle at were a trio that ran around buuuud, weeiis, and errrrrrr or something to that effect.

I just made a froggy character. His name is Nerbit.

My friends always made funny names in EQ1:

Hanovir Fist
Chessae Peakabay
Brunt Toast
etc.

I had a Ogre Warrior named Oopdroop Indyagbag

What annoy's me is that someone on Lucan had the last name of Carpenter and had it changed because it was 'a profession name'. The GM changed it to Smith.

Angua -- from Delphine Angua von Überwald, a werewolf member of the City Watch (Bard in EQOA, and again in EQ2)

LOL On one hand, using another character's name for a toon is really unoriginal - particularily if you're styling your toon after that character. Gandalllf Gannndalf Gandolf Gandalff Gandolf Gondalf Dangalf etc. /eyeroll

OTOH, I do kinda have to give an on-the-sly (well not now lol) thumbsup to Terry Pratchett themed names. I don't know why I think this is any different - it really isn't. BUT, I love Pratchett so tend to be more amused when I see a Pratchett name running about. I also shamefully admit to complete & total lameness and naming my first guild Monstrous Regiment -somewhat after the book and going for a couple levels of jokey irony (we were tiny, most of the toons were men playing females rather than say, females playing men*). The only reason I went with MR is because... well... Nac Mac Feegle was taken.

I'm also guilty of cherrypicking a couple names from Folklore for at least 2 of my toons (Megaira - one of the 3 furies and go figure, NOT a fury, & Falada - the beheaded talking horse ala The Goose Girl). Those were more "in honor of" than "oo I think I am!"

If I ever turn into a snake haired batwinged torch carrying decapitated horse that talks, you can feel free to burn me at the stake, but not before stabbing me in the chest with a fencepost, drowning me in holy water and basting me in garlic butter.

/hand over tomatoes
:D

One winner from our server, that quickly disappeared:
Suknfuk

I think my favorites so far are the ones the random name generator churns up. A guildie had an alt the random generator named Fuwknu or some variation of the spelling that ended up sounding like "fuckin u" - we thought up some creative pronunciations for him before someone reported him and a GM made him change it.

**We had another female guildie at the time - at least we think she was a RL female - who would fling herself all over the boys like a cat in heat. It was ...wow...spectacular to watch. She met my husband and promptly dripped all over him like sweat on a fat man.
It was bad enough it wierded the guys out, and a couple of them switched full time to their female alts, claiming to be their male main's "cousin" or "sister." I still remember one going "she doesn't KNOW does she?" lol Oh honey, you'd KNOW if she knew...
Anyway, hence the guild full of men in tights.

Edit - love the new smilies, LFG but gawd they're huge.

I have to admit, I pick through myth to name my characters a lot (take Atropos Threadcutter).

On craptacular names, I'm pretty sure I came across a Garth Brooks...and then there was Oooo.
