It's a ridiculous name. It's also the name of one of the fictional referees on the new Fifa 11 game. And the commentators are insistent are mentioning his stupid name whenever they can.

Has anyone else come across ridiculous names in games? I actually can't think of many examples, but there must be a few.

Erm... discuss?

In Mass Effect 2 I named by bad character 'Evil Shepherd' and made him look like Ming the Merciless. Characters in game were still shocked when I stabbed them in the back or did douchebag things, maybe they never asked for my first name?

The games industry is built upon ridiculous names:

*Mario Mario (if that awful film can be considered canon)

*Guybrush Threepwood

*Duke Nukem

*Link...something

*Samus Aran

*Cloud (don't even start on Final Fantasy names)

*Solid Snake

*BJ Blaskowitz

*Dr Eggman

*Coach
