The Hilariously Awful PSN/XBL/Whatever Name Thread

KrunkMcGrunk

This is the terrible names thread. In which we mock the stoned masses from our ivory tower.

The MMO subforum has it, so why not G&T? We all know that online gaming services are chock-full of only the most bright, witty, well-spoken inhabitants of our planet. For instance, there is this young chap. The 69th master of the house of Blunt. He plays Madden, Wrestling Games, and Need For Speed. I've heard that the man is a laureate.

So, G&T lay your shitty names down here. Leave your tears for humanity in Krunk's golden bucket.

P.S.
DoucheBaggins is an excellent name.

Best name ever?

That is a great name. This makes me feel like I should get really drunk before I name myself in any game from now on.

Terrible name. Not as bad as CokNokr420 or whatever my brother in law's name is, but pretty bad.

That instantly made me think of this:

Probably NSFW.

A friend of mine has the tag JackDRipper.

When I was creating a WoW character I took the PA comic about "not enough Y's" to heart and came up with Thrynyysy. I almost named an alt Dyynyyryy just to drive above said friend insane.

DarkPrimus

Back when my brother and I played Counter-Strike and Day of Defeat, he came up with the most genius title for when we were playing: Craig T Nelson.

It's especially great because not so many folks playing knew who he was, but every once in a while we'd hear "Hey, coach!"

Unfortunately, when my brother made a Live account, it was already taken. So he went with Craig 7 Nelson. :P

This is not Xbox Live but there was a guy on FFXI Beta named Dildo-Baggins. I lol'd

Myself980

So far these are awesome names, not shitty ones. So in that spirit, I nominate anything with 420 or 69 in the tile, the more random "x"s, the worse.

Eg. xxxb0NgRypper420xxx

It's hard to give a specific example, shitty names kind of run together.

A funny one I remember for TF2 was {USERNAME} + Doctor, so his assisted kills always looked like {USERNAME} + Doctor + {ACTUAL MEDIC}. This lent to some momentary confusion.

GrimReaper

So, how bad is mine? EvilMonkeySlayer.

Have at you!

KrunkMcGrunk

God damn. Most of these names are so bad, they've become good.

Actually, I think Dildo-Baggins was from the porn Lord of the G-strings.

SkutSkut

TigerInMyTank, yea wtf.

and ah

Anyone remember the promo-ads for Xbox Live when it was first launching? There was that stupid jack-ass DarkMaster X or something that always got his ass kicked. If I remember correctly those ads were full of terrible names.

Tasteticle

hahaha someone actually registered this account:

Reznik

I recall a Sephiroth10000 while playing Warhawk with my friends.

If you got killed by him it was considered a great shame.

phekno

When I tried playing Eve: Online my character was named Clark Shaftthrob.

SkutSkut

I had a griever character named Satan~Clause in a few mmos.

Sadly most names I see are like that. The more x's there are the more white ghetto the player is.

Then again theres always Bluntmaster69...

Just try and remember what happens when you melee someone from behind in Halo.

Also:

AIDS

Peewi

A few weeks ago I saw a Dr. Acula in TF2.

Tofystedeth

Mine is probably pretty bad. People always call me a fag for it

I've seen some damn good ones playing Halo2 (also a bunch of weed/gangsta shit)
Like, Defenestrator, Jehovatron, and our personal favorite, DrAbortion MD (which we are pretty sure wouldn't nearly as funny without only Dr or MD by itself)

Bonus points to the 2v2 team in Halo I played against
Randy and RandyLikesGuys

Sheep

I love headshotting people or mowing them down in GTA IV and hearing

"SHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!"

I like to think they have their fists clenched and are waving them into the air.

SkutSkut

I'd also like to nominate all the squeaky tweens with names with "gangsta" or "thug" or anything similar in the name.

Dixon

My old GT was Nathan Dixon, my actual name I signed up when xbox live first started and I thought it was asking for my real name as it didn't say gamertag in the fill in box! Man did people rag on that name. Halo 2 was especially bad, although I think my new one doesn't do as well. In my defense it's a name from a clan where we all took our last name and added 'ater'

Burtletoy

When I had a 2 month free trial with Xbox Live back before the 360 one of the names the game suggested since my chosen name was taken was BlubberJungle.

BlubberJungle.

Yes, please.

irn

I don't condone violence against women but I think we spent the better part of two gears multi rounds laughing at a guy who got past the xbox live censors with:

iChoke myChick

he had another great name but I can't remember what it is now.

ddahcmai

My gamertag way back in the day was SmashingFetus.

Oh how I miss those times.

ZombieX

Master Queef

ItsYaBoyGinch

Tav

The MMO subforum thread is better.

:P

SkutSkut

How about those assholes that dedicate their name to thier gf or wife or w/e. like "ILoveKatie" or JamieRocks"

Hey hey hey whoa now hey now whoa

We shall see who is the real undead god of dance

Shifty_Calhoun

I wish I had've known that it costs you to change your name.

Now I am stuck with CRASH_F1STFIGHT.

Bugger.

xWonderboyx

I had an ultra-conservative super-christian roommate when Halo 2 launched. I kept my Xbox in the living room so everyone living in the house (6 of us) could have some rousing games of whatever or whathaveyou. Anyway, he had this annoying habit oh hogging the xbox and tv when pretty much everyone wanted to do something else, but we were a bunch of passive-aggressive ninnies so the solution was clear: make an offensive gamertag.

We looked to our favorite shitty grind bands for inspiration. Anal Cunt didn't make it past the censors, and Vaginal Jesus was taken. Thus, xVaginalJesusx was born. He refused to play under that gamertag. He went so far as to try and play using things like XBConnect but the lag + lack of voice really did him in.

He never played my xbox again. I win.

There's nothing wrong with references to mid-80s advertising campaigns.

Do explain, as the whole group I was playing with couldn't figure it out and he didn't have a mic.

I'm guessing something about automotives though?

I actually looked it up and it's older than I thought it was, the slogan ("Put a tiger in your tank") is one of the first instances of an oil company "branding" their petrol. It was used by Esso from the mid 50s through to the early 90s.

Ah, that makes sense, I guess.

BlackDragon480

I'll admit that my GT is a little unwieldingly long ("BlackDragon1066" (a combo of my favorite type of dragon from D&D 2.0 and the year of the battle of Hastings)) and accept ridicule for it.

My favorite name I've ever encountered was when I was doing a trial in WoW on a PvE server a few months ago. The guy was a dwarf warrior that went by "Assjuice of the North".

You could also buy a little tiger tail that you could stick on your gas cap so you would actually have a tigers tail sticking out of the tank!

Anything that has more than three X's or uses "leetspeak" is considered pretty bad in my opinion.

Ran into something along the lines of xxxpwnstehnubs12413xxx, complete with an unnecessary amount of x's and numbers, while still managing to butcher the english language. Classy
