    Default Amusing retro RPG character names

    I'm sure a lot of people have seen the GameGrumps playthrough of pokemon with "Fuck, I", but gamers have been doing crap like that since day one. What's the most amusing name you've come up with to name a character in RPGs?

    inb4 one million gary oaks named "dicks"

    for me:

    Tried shining force briefly in an emulator today. Being the mature fellow I am, I decided to name my main character "Oh fuck!".
    First line:
    Black screen with the text:
    "Oh fuck!? Oh fuck!? C'mon, kid, wake up! I didn't hit you that hard."
    I died.

    Hunter, on the Amiga was pretty funny. You're a secret military agent and I usually named him "Parts". You start out in the game as a private.

    I think after about 100 hours playing as a character named "fuck" the thing would probably lose it's appeal.

    I played all the way through Ocarina of Time with Link named "Elf Boy" and it was pretty entertaining. The dialogue just kept on giving

    I used the name "Mr. Picaloca" (whick translates roughly as "Mr. Crazycock" to play Vegas Stakes - for the sole purpose of laughing childishly at that handwritten check-in at the beginning of the game. Yes, I know.
