For some reason I like to collect/play games with very strange titles. I have no idea why, most of them are just regular games, but others are pretty weird. I can think of a few classic examples:
Punky Skunk
No One Can Stop Mr. Domino
Irritating Stick
Fat Worm Blows a Sparky
D
Lee Trevino's Fighting Golf
Modern games have them too:
Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! What did I Do to Deserve This?/What Did I Do to Deserve this, My Lord
Tube Slider
My World, My Way
Any other games with strange titles that stick out on a shelf?

Boogerman certainly made an impression me when I first saw the title.

Final Fantasy. It's weird in that despite the title, they keep on making 'em.

Revengers of Vengeance
Because seriously, it's the most awesome game title ever.
Also based on a true story.

-Wet because it has nothing to do with water
-Stranglehold because you can't actually choke anybody
-Breakdown because it doesn't allow you to dance
-The Guy Game because most guys are smart enough to download free porn instead

Never heard of Fat Worm Blows a Sparky before, guess I'm gonna have to look that one up.
The Saturn version of Fire Prowrestling had an odd subtitle, 6men Scramble. Not 6 Man, 6men.
Actually, Fire Prowrestling is kind of an odd name to begin with. Sure, there have been a few wrestlers who've thrown fireballs, and some of them are represented in some versions of the series, but it really has nothing to do with the game in general.
Lightening Force is another oddy. Not only did they change it from Thunder Force whatever number it was, but they spelled Lightning wrong.

There's a Japanese Saturn game called 6 Inch My Darling. Yes, really.

Road Prosecutor. Road Avenger is already an awesome name, but this just adds a little twist that makes it better.

The game isn't even out yet, but Lollipop Chainsaw. That game looks awesome, by the way. :D

Nuts and Milk (NES)
Incredible Crisis - PS1
Space Channel 5 - DCI don't find either of those titles odd, honestly.
Infinite Undiscovery - Such a ridiculous name...Really. While there are scores of odder ones (especially Japanese developed titles) that one really is weird.
Final Fantasy. It's weird in that despite the title, they keep on making 'em. What do you think about Untold Legends for the PSP? I mean, really think about that one for a second. :|
