Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
The Gnome on my city's Council is called Bendypink Crumplehatch.
Just remember... if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
My favorite is a character a player made for a campaign i was DMing
Lord Chauncey, Duke of Binderbottom (AKA RoboJones) - 5E Warforged fighter/sorcerer with a hat of disguise
Used his charlatan background to have false papers claiming to be Duke of Binderbottom (the place didnt exist) and used his hat of disguise to seem like different members of the Binderbottom family.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
Our wide-ranging gaming group has brought up several weird names (and weird characters)
for example:
RLB (run like b*ggery) a human mage
Damnandblast the Bold - very low level and short lived paladin
Cribbin Strangetrousers, a hobbit
Septimus Inconspiciuous, a centaur thief

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
I run a game with three 22 year old boys.
Human Storm sorc - Evan Frostblind (not terrible)
Goliath Monk - Takeshi Tonyu (why.... just why)
Halfling druid - Connach Magregor (He's the main tank and a bare-knuckles brawler. It works.)"What are you going to do, bludgeon it with a rake?"
"Hold up, did we just get a defective pocket dragon?"
Why are you advocating cutting off hands? You're a paladin! Who's your god, Orcus?"

oWoD Mage. Virtual Adept Reality Hacker who believed the world was a video game, and he intended to game the system via metagaming.
Went by the handle Meta, so that's what the team knew him as.
Also had a Dreamspeaker named Enkidu Farmeadow. His name got a surprising response from some vamps. Only later did I learn that Enkidu is the name of an ancient Gangrel on the Camarilla's Red List.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
Haven't actually used this, but I've noticed that the technical names of a lot of household products kind of sound like they could be the names of characters from fantasy stories. Especially detergents ("everything was fine until our kingdom was besieged by Borax the Merciless" etc) and pharmaceuticals ("Who dares disturb the great Alprazolam?" etc)

Izzagond MacHamish d'Yaaago. Izzy is a half-orc shaman unknowingly serving the god of the robot apocalypse -- not that that's related to the name, but it's worth saying itself.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
I once made a Chaotic Evil Goblin Cleric named Gobbwinkler Gabblesnatch. His friends call him Gobb, but you can call him Mr. Gabblesnatch.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
In a Pathfinder game, I briefly played a witch named Pellagra. In the fine tradition of Anathema Device, her parents thought it sounded like a nice name for a girl.
(It's a skin disease.)Play your character, not your alignment.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
Third post to the thread in... four years? I guess I'm about due.
Again with the one-shots:
Sunplane the drunk cleric was an amusing character. He was named after the last thing the player injured himself on.
We actually had a Gnome Fighter named Leeeeroooy Jenkins (actual spelling). Between his short legs and horrible initiative rolls, he earned the epithet "First to charge, last to arrive."
I've got a bunch of fake beers and breweries for an adventure. The worst of the lot was an Underdark brew: St. Pauli Grell. You cannot unsee the label, no matter how hard you try. It's the blond braids that does it. It tastes like mushrooms and sorrow.
For you Old Schoolers: The town of Raven's Bluff has one of the worst taverns in the region, if not the world. It's this seedy little bar on the docks - pretty much the first one you see coming ashore: The Nyr Dyv.
See you next year?

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
I have a Half-Orc named Stew Bobby Pid and his clone Id Stewey Diot. Stew is always confused why people call him ‘Stupid’ instead of Stew, or Bobby, or Mr. Pid. He gets annoyed sometimes.

Re: Interesting/Funny D&D Names
In a one-shot game for D&D 4e game, I used a warlord called Miss Effect. Story-wise, she is the heir of House Effect, disqualified due to her lack of strength. Mechanic-wise, she cannot hit anyone but can spam those crazy miss effects.
