    I sense Alliance jealousy.

    "Hi, I'm a human female. I've got childbirthing hips."

    "Hi, I'm a blood elf female. I'm a supermodel."

    My college buddies and I used a theme set of names for Halo 2:
    Gonorrhea, Syphilis, Herpes, Hep C, and Crabs. The gimmick was the whole "Steve is killed by Gonorrhea," and also it just set a tone in the games that we were crude. Syphilis would get pretty worked up when he was drunk.

    Then when they rolled on WoW with me we went with a guild called <Is Delicious>
    Cranybrysauce, PunkinPie, TatoesnGravy, Stuffin, and I forgot the priest but he rerolled a mage named Buschice. I also started alts and never finished them called Manflesh (UD priest) and Firewater (mage)

    As to my own characters, I (almost) always have some variation of Bob in my names.
    -Bobador (obligatory NE hunter, which I think everyone had to roll at some point)
    -Bobbeorn (druid)
    -Bobbeque (cow warrior, formerly Stuffin from <Is Delicious> and then I server xfer'd him)
    -Bobbawa (shaman, name just sounded shamanistic, I was tired and feeling uncreative)
    -Bubblebobba (Bubblebobble was taken, but wasn't on armory, sad)
    -Sideshowbob (longtime bank alt)

    Of course my buddy infringes and has chars like his gnome warrior Bigbob and his gnome DK Biggerbob. jerk.

    I listened in on Teamspeak when some buddies played WAR, and appearantly this dorf "Brutallica Spliff" caused them some serious aggravation.
    He was always mentioned in vitriolic sentences.

    I play on Aman'Thul (Oceanic). Ran across a druid named Morpholic. I thought its a very fitting name.

    There's a guild on the server called Gnomercy. Its not a bad name.

    Best guild names I've encountered so far... Liquid Courage, and Dyslexics Untie

    My own Deathknight is called Loveless, which I shamelessly squattered on since rumors of the Death Knight class started.:P

    That would only be better if it was a 2 man arena team with "Oneinthestink" and the guild name was "The Shocker"

    I would like to claim that credit but, no. Mine is a FFVII reference (not FF:CC, though).

    Anyway the name just sound right on a DK.:P

    When you're done, you must dry yourself off by dousing yourself in gasoline and lighting yoiurself on fire.

    After that, we can begin the cleansing routine.

    He hopes to be a level 80 Pwrnographer when he grows up. Gorillagasm will star in his first film "Bananas: The Sex Film". The two will build a Warcraft-based adult entertainment empire that will rival even the Venture Co.

    Seriously though. Bad names are bad.

    Well I never said there weren't other people with the name... but I actually came up with it when I was sitting at the character select screen... I armory'd it after the fact, and I was sad that others had chosen it already.

    Stilll though, it's a bitchin' name.
