My friends and I always talk about funny/stupid names we see. Sharing the distaste of having to see a charcter with a really annoying name with your friends is a good way to make light of it and help to keep it from distracting you from a good game. My friend put it best when he said, "This is a fantasy game, not a chat room.". :P
The funniest names I have seen by far, "Jewbacca" (my fav), and a tarutaru named "garycolman" was kinda funny too. Names that make me groan: "corndog", "nosebleed" (kind of funny), anything that sounds like sephiroth, squall, cloud, titus, goku, gohan, cell, vegita, all of which are made more annoying by the fact that the person had to go out of their way to make it resemble the name as closely as possible without being the actual name, because it is either banned, or someone else has taken it. :P I re-itterate, this is a fantasy game, not a chat room. ;)

I forgot to mention "smokymcpot", that's on my groan list. :P And I have partied with Enormousfoliage, I kinda like the name. It fits with american indian style names of some galka. He is a cool guy.
