The Hilariously Awful PSN/XBL/Whatever Name Thread

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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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...

    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)

    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'

    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.

    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.

    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".
