OT: What're the best D2 names you've ever seen?
Quote:SoilentShadow the Potion Finder

SoilentShadow... Is PEOPLE!

Heh, I bet half the posters here didn't get that. ;)

... Which makes me feel all the stranger that I understood the reference. Guess I was lucky enough to grow up watching old cult movies (Running Man, Freejacker, Logan's Run, THEM!, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes...).

EDIT: To make my own contribution:

Nearly all of my D2 character names were 'real' names, which I'm not going to post in case I choose to reinstall the game someday. Can't have my names being taken on B.Net, eh? ;)

In Diablo, I often used names out of book series (the BattleTech and Shadowrun books were great for this). Sally_Tsung (and Lady_Tsung), GhostMaker (/GhostWhoWalksInside), Phelan_Kell, variations of Victor_Davion and the like served me well. But the 'fun' names I used that really lasted for me were:

Lefty(BNM)
Oof(BAR)
BamBam

Yeah, they can't exactly compete with 'I_CEDeadPeople,' but they're mine, dangit!

Quote:Sebek-Ra (a warrior god of fertility)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Sebek and Ra were actually two different gods... Sebek was the crocodile-headed god, and Ra was the sun god (or of the world egg, or something... My Egyptian mythology is more than a bit rusty).

Quote: Qhal-kek. Nihlathak. Larzuk. Kah-plah!

LOL, I hadn't noticed those. Two of them are actual Klingon words!

<Geek>
Kah-plah (Qap'la) is "Victory!" or "Good Hunting" or just about any "Good luck!" comment.
Qhal-kek (can't remember the correct spelling right now) is (IIRC) the Klingon greeting. Literal translation is "What do you want?"
</Geek>

EDIT v2: How could I forget the ill-fated "Locke Rule" I tried in D1?

HeadLocke - Sorceror
ArmLocke - Warrior
LegLocke - Rogue

Argh, the pain! Bad names! Must... Forget...
