Funny names, funny dialogue?

Hey, whenever anyone names the character/s in some games... do you ever give them any funny names, whether or not you intend for the resulting funny dialogue? Not counting how mom always calls Link 'MUM', despite my explaining repeatedly to her that's the hero name and not her file name...


I ask because, on the SNES classic Secret of Mana... I named the hero Raul, and the girl Julia. I guess I didn't SEE the inevitable dialogue coming at certain points in the game, did I? You know, like... "
RAUL: JULIA! Ahhh!"


The album wouldn't let me upload a screencap here, it seems it's too large and/or corrupted to be posted - but I posted it on Facebook, and people got it right away. Yes, some of them did find it funny!

(PS before you ask, I named the sprite Chapa, after Damian Chapa)

I haven't but that sounds so creative

Try looking up on YouTube, like about funny Pokemon names or funny names to give Link.

Of course, they do suggest for the gen-1 rival a name I would never use (I won't say which one, except that no Jay :jay: fan would ever use it)... but there are other good funny names to consider.

Cute

I used to give characters nicknames after my pets

Awwww, that's sweet!

And in case you ask, no I won't twist your arm to submit pictures of your pets to the Pet Gallery - not unless you want to, and/or if anyone else may want to see them?


And if Lemmy was playing any games, where you can name the character... dare I ask, is the name 'Peaches' another common girl name choice for you now?

You too, Mod Soul? That's just so cute!

And I won't twist your arm either, to submit pictures to the Pet Gallery... unless you want to, and/or anyone else may wish to see 0:-)


In my case, well yes part of it is due to preference... but also, mom is very... purrticular, when it comes to naming our cats. So I guess that kind of rubbed off on me too, somewhat 0:-)

Love those ideas!
