Ok, I bought a copy of City of Heroes/City of Villans for me and my ex, and we're having a good time with it. We want to switch over to the server that Penny Arcade is using, but my character name isn't available.
His name is General Counsel, and basically he's an evil attorney. I was originally going to go with The Barrister, but that wasn't available. General Counsel has really grown on me, though. I'd like a name that is keeping with a legal theme, but the obvious things (Attorney General, The Barrister, The Solicitor, etc) are gone. I don't want anything too inside that people won't know what it's referring to (Res Ipsa Locquitor, International Shoe, Exclusion Rule, etc).
What are his powers? If he is a lawyer mastermind who summons zombies,
Habeas Corpus
is the obvious choice. Too bad it's probably already taken.
But seriously, what is his moveset? My buddy actually had a sonic dude Lawyer villain who shouted at people.
other choices:
The Quid Pro Crow
The Subpoena of Pain
Malafides (or, The Bad Faith)
Animus Nocendi
The Badgerer of Witnesses
The Paintiff (oh good lord that was bad.)
Holden Contempt (my favorite)
Malice Aforethought
Holden Contempt
The Retainer
El Advogado (bonus points if he wears a luchador mask)

I like Habeus Corpus, myself.

And it seems like all is dying, and would leave the world to mourn
I'll try this when I get home. If it's not taken, this will probably be it. I'm still open to hearing other suggestions, as Atticus Lynch ran a close second. Habeas Corpus would be good for a hero, but I want names that just scream evil.
I'm bored, and since I'm not at work today I tested the names from the thread so far on Virtue.

Note, you cannot have a name that starts with "The" in the name, in the case where it was there, it was removed to test. (IE "The Retainer" was entered as "Retainer").
Edit:
More names popped up while I was posting.
Phil Lonius ++
Mr. Scumbag ++ (Available as Mr. Scumbag, Scumbag alone is taken. Mr Scumbag is also available)
Objection overruled XX
Well if you like the Barrister angle then you could consider:
The Advocate (in some countries this is what a Barrister is called)
Queen's Counsel (A title given to some senior barristers in Commonwealth countries as a sign of respect)
Or perhaps Legal Aide (sort of a pun on legal aid), Motion2 Dismiss, or failing that, perhaps a famous case name.

I dunno, maybe Phil Lonius is stretching it.
So good.

I'm sorry.
This. A thousand times this.
when I read that I was like "wtf that one was mine! bastard!"
then I re-read your post.
Either skimming your post subliminally implanted the idea in my head or great minds olol.
It is also now reserved.
If the OP wants it, drop me a PM either here or ingame @Melchiam and I'll free it up.
