Never underestimate how cruel some parents can be when naming their children, or what some “wacky” people could get up to with deed poll forms.

Tough draw for TTT here. Everyone sees Pretzel and goes “Yep, great name” and votes for it.

But Terry Tickhill Terrell just rolls off the tongue so nicely. Try saying it. Then vote for 3T.

I raise you that Nintendo computer generated sports names GIF tbh.

I mean Sleeve McDichael is still an all time winner.

Worth pointing out none of these are touching the name I gave the Cleric I’m playing in one of my D&D games right now: Fellwalker Penitent

Oh, that’s what I meant - I just assumed it was a Simpsons thing like everything else on this forum :wink:

My detailed Simpsons knowledge stops around Season 5. After that it’s all just highlight episodes that my mate bought on VHS until about Season 10ish so I just assume I don’t know the reference!
