For some reason, I've been trying to think of some great pun names lately (Maybe for baiting, or maybe just because my mind works in some strange ways...) and I'm trying to come up with those that are a bit more subtle than the classics "Ben Dover" and "I.P. Frehley".

So far, the best I've been able to come up with are "Oskar G. Rouche" and "Y. Lee Quixote".

Again, there's no real purpose behind this but can anyone else think of some hilarious pun names?

Joe Hama???
Actually, My Satt4r character is useful as it's not a word that Spell check ever recognizes and when I'm posting E-mails at the warning site I get any instances of it underlined for easy overwriting with "Clipped". Using Win7 that is....

Some you may have to repeat a few times.

While working in a large investment bank, I phoned one of the female broker assistants who I could
see across a large open-plan office and told her I was trying to contact a guy who was visiting from our Frankfurt office.
So I spelt out his name to her and I have never seen anyone go as red in the face as she did when she
stood up and called out across the office, "does anyone have an Erik Schoen with them?"

I once met a Wright Nee. I've also mentioned Seymour Robbins (spelled Robbiins on the Cartalk page) in a bait.

One I've used in a bait is Patrice Taոjoi (replace the Armenian O with an N and pronounce it in French).

One of my earliest characters was called Phyllis Syph. Given the name ordering in other parts of the world I would calls on my K7 number saying "Yes, I'm looking for Syph Phyllis"...

One of my characters, a bank manager, is a charming lady called Helen Hywater. Smile

exactly what lads can expect.

I tend to use names like Steve Camcatcher (that was my catcher account for a while) and Phil Huqhead where you 'get the joke' if you only use the first inital rather than the full first name.

Yes please, extra large, and a big Coke to go with that as well. Very Happy

I am proud of my character, Bob Afett, an avid Star Wars fan.

^There was a baiter who had a character named Hans Olo - I did a call as his accountant, Calvin Rissian.

^ As a huge Star Wars fan I must say that those are absolutely brilliant Very Happy

For one of NV's baits, in which he has a character who works in the petroleum industry, I made up a character named Kelly Нoseman, which is a pun on part of an oil rig.

Way back in 2010 or 2011 a baiter called Nowhereman did a Star Wars themed massbait, the only character i can recall now is Hans Olow. I wasn't a part of that but created Bob for a planned sequel that never happened. I remember Bravo and The Dane were a part of the original bait that had the lad excavate a roundabout in Madiguri and eventually bail his hotel bill. A few years later i sent a lad to the same hotel and had him ask for the lad that fled his bill, and it turned out the hotel staff remembered the old lad. My lad ended up confirming both his own safari and reconfirm the Star Wars safari.

Here's the Mr Olo bait thread.

Wow. It hit me just now.
I've never noticed. Shocked

I used a take on the old Ben Dover. I changed the nickname and added a middle name Benja Wright- Becomes "Bend ya right over"

I though it was humorous.

I also created a Nigerian character, Ose Chukwu. She married an American, last name Kenusei (Can you see)

They made me chuckle...

Just passing by to mention that the only good pun is a dead pun.
