Question Stupidiest name you have seen in GW

I myself are somewhat annoyed about retarded names people use. Call me nerd, but it little bit ruins the immersion if u see names like: cocacolafan, eminemfan, pwnzor, migtyworrior.. Also I dont like much those lego- whatever lotr names.

My own nicks arent maybe the best and sometimes i wanna start over if i dont like my current nick. What do you thing about this? Also i want to say that fast made pvp only characters names doesnt matter so much if they are stupid. Names like IwishiwereaWMO was kinda funny when it was name of w/ele or so..
(english bad sorry i was born as finnish)

I hate names that have spaces between them, always takes me hours to type those xD. But as you said Cocacolafan isn't a nice name...

I couldn't begin to list all the stupid names I've seen. There's far too many out there.

As for my own characters, the only one with a stupid name is my Monk, Deadly Rice. I like it.

wow my list of stupid names could go on forever. but one of the dumbest i have ever seen would have to be Cptn Dookie. well there was that one guy whose name was poopy poop. i wont even let ppl in my guild if they have stupid names like that. it is kinda like a pet peeve i guess. there is just something about stupid names that drive me crazy.

Prepare for an onslaught of 'Naruto' assassins. I predict that the first one taken will be Xx Naruto xX.

I don't even understand that damn show.

I only have one stupid name which I use for my PvP char: Retarded Genius.. maybe you have bumped into me in RA

Rest of my chars have proper role playing names (medieval themed).

Since there are an overwhelming number of stupid character names on Guild Wars, I divided all character names into three groups. All of my characters fit into the Proper Name category.

1. Proper Names. Everyone knows what a proper name is "John Smith", "Eddie Windstorm" and so on. Proper names are fine.

2. Abstract Names. These are witty names (witty to an adult, not a little kid) that may inspire thought or cause a chuckle or just look nice. It's hard to think of an example off the top of my head but you know one when you see one.

3. Everything else is stupid and they are all equally stupid in my mind. When given the chance I won't even party with them. Unfortunately this category is the largest by far. Random examples could be "Omg I Pwn", "Warrior Dude", "I Like To Kill", "Ggebhir Thiugferg", "A N N O Y I N G S P A C I N G", "X Warrior X", "I Warrior I" and so on.

We're Men, Men in tights - TIGHT TIGHTS!. We steal from the ritch and give to the poor, thats right! We may look like sissies, but dont get us rong or we'l put out your lights!


Would work better for general aumusment if the character was female...

i agree with Lost, those names in your group 3 just annoy me and just make the player seem childish, i'm also weary of them in-game as they tend to be the disruptive ones in my experience =/

and people who just add X's and L's or I's just to make sure they get a certain name, just show how they lack even a tiny bit of imagination to make themselves more unique amongst the thousand other people with a similar name (though i guess the same goes for one of my chars that just has Hime tagged on the end ^^
