First name: "German Mouthdump"

Best of the web.

That's every natural name, sure, but you forgot that there's an infinite number of real names between each one.

Dustin Johnglanders lowered his pistol, took a deep slow breath to calm himself. The place was deserted. They weren't here. Clag, Myrta, Scrandy—all of 'em must have twigged and split, probably two states over by now. And Johnglanders knew who tipped them off. He muttered the hateful name in the quiet of the vacated chopshop, an invocation and a threat:

"Ballswind Osterly."

...and the rational names (Michelle) are greatly outnumbered by the irrational (Meeshell, Mychele, Mishel).

My Bobson Dugnutt rookie year card is easily my most valuable possession.

in fact, for every rational name, there are an infinite dumber of irrational names

I don't get it, but it seems like Benedict Cumberbatch should be included.

Seems a bit Eurocentric (Tolkienian Pastiche-centric?) though. Perhaps the next version will be able to name all of the NPCs in my Avatar: The Last Airbender RPG campaign.

without opening the page (because I'm waiting for my work to unblock it), I'm going to bet all the money in the world that my name is not on there

Look, if your "name" isn't on the list then it's not a name. This is ALL THE NAMES there are.

I'm pretty sure that some of these are imaginary names.

I'm terrible at picking character names but now I guess I have no excuse not to work on that novel.

Except of course laziness.

Just in time for the greatest 'March Madness' competition of them all, Name of the Year. As of this moment, the entire brackets have not been announced, but we have the No. 1 seeds:

Bulltron Regional: Illinois State football recruit and media sensation Kobe Buffalomeat.
Sithole Regional: Late 19th-century Cornwall immigrant and Wisconsin lawyer Marmaduke Trebilcock.
Dragonwagon Regional: University of Hawaii softball recruit Chardonnay Pantastico.
Chrotchtangle Regional: Georgia high-school football player Quindarious Monday.

Divina Chemtrails

And her brother, Trold Chemtrails.

I agree that's it's got a very Parks & Rec vibe, but with a few deleted character from The Usual Suspects thrown in for good measure.

Between this and this, I think I'll never have to come up with character names for a D&D campaign again.

Hunter Blastfeld, top secret agent for her majesty's space service, was suave, sophisticated, and ruthless. He only had one weakness: Marilyn. Marylin Bedwrecks.

I haven't laughed at a MeFi post so much in ages. Neither, have I abused the 'favourite' buttons so badly. Thanks all. This was needed.

It really needs a search function. In today's fast-paced modern world, who has time to scroll down 850,000 screen to find "Inez Funkhauser" or "Iqbal Garfunkel"?

Keaton always said, 'I don't believe in God, but I'm afraid of him.' Well, I believe in God, and the only thing that scares me is Mica Meepmorp.

I'm pretty sure that some of these are imaginary names.

Maybe they were imaginary until they appeared on this list, but now, because they are there, they're real - there they are, right there.
