My sacramento RPG cohorts dug it. Not quite as much as I did, but they certainly appreciated the humor.

Some bad ones I’ve heard over the years:
Hung Long, the monk.
Brave Sir Robin (actually, she was a female knight, so her full title was Dame Brave Sir Robin).
Haiyu Overthere, the Elven ranger.
Bob the Fighter
Plot Device Annie, the generic name we used whenever we couldn’t remember the name of the orphan, princess, peasant, etc. we were saving that session.
Haggis McGee, the Dwarven bagpipe-playin’ bard.
Those are all that I can remember, but there have been others…
