Instead of starting a new short-lived thread, I'll reuse this one.
It's about insulting and games, so it will do.
I have recently played X-Com and I always love to personalize the **** out of game characters. I do have a few personal comedy characters that I use in games with offensive and goofy names (the latest iteration in Spanish... like Manuel Maricon or Xavier Xenofobo).
However in X-Com you have your countries of origin and a lot of soldiers to name, so when I ran out of my usual character names, I started using ethnically offensive names (like Hans Hitler, Hiroshima Hentai and worse), because I like juvenile humor.
Now I know people sometimes use friends and family as inspiration, or even pop culture characters. But do you also have some more creative scheme of naming characters? I'm both looking for ideas and curious what other people are doing.
