I'm pretty sure I got my figures from something on telly, probably the news. It probably varies between countries or something...

It does vary on countries. The oldest people live in Japan, as far as I know, men are about 79 and women about 85 years on average. Most people think that the Japanese are the oldest because they eat a lot of fish.

On a slight tangent, I did propagate the myth at school that my middle name was Mophus.

Continuing the tradition of picking on a charatcer with a silly name and blaming him for everything, I'm playing DM2 just now on the PC and DM2 on RTC to compare and contrast. Playing between RTC and DM2 using same charatcers and basically more and more one stood out of as having more stamina drain, or failing to cast a spell, or getting hit more by wolves. Poor cletus, or, to give him his full name 'dammit cletus you slack-yawed yokel!' Which, by the powers of PC DM2 name altering, is actually Cletus Slackjawd Yokel
I also have Torham Slightly Useful and Equus U Soldmyarmor:(
I have Sardos too, but he remains inherently unfunny...which could be an idea for his name....

When i was young and naive (im now older and naive btw) i used to reincarnate all my characters and randomly press letters on my keyboard as there names, so the party often had "hilarious" names like shdsajdhas and opisadyas9dy. My favourite character however was ijsagdiasgd who was always the backbone of my old party.

Hehe, yes my puns are known to cause deep uncurable depressions in all living things :-(

Oh and another slightly silly name is the main character on the dungeon im working on. He's a character called "Zipper" and he's a right little cute character, cant wait to reveal him to you all........

And if he dies, then all the rest of the team can carry on, and give 'em one for the zipper!

A question (or maybe a poll?) :

How would a bad Wizard call his pet, a Pain-Rat?

If he was summoned perhaps Edam (made backwards) but that would be a bit cheesy. Or maybe 'Mon-Pal' if he was french-scottish.

I've done my d&d characters mostly, nothing too unique. Gavin Cloudeyes, Bandor Stoutheart, Aerien Brightleaf, Taize. I once used some completely randon name "Vexnog". I don't know about my brother or sister but I some how managed to keep an Eye of the beholder 2 save from my sister with these names: Seyla, Kait, Mat, Javek. Originally Aerien and Taize belonged to her.
when not using D&d i often go to comic books like: gothmog = doom, alex is iron man, halk = hulk.
