Next category: Horrible nicknames
(These aren't just nicknames that you think sound bad. These are nicknames that pretty much everyone tends to agree have a bad connotation, like Dick for Richard.)
New entries welcome at any time!
RULES:
1. They have to be entries in the name database or their direct variants (submitted ones don't count, sorry).
2. NO ABBREVIATIONS! People who are new should be able to understand everything.
3. I will judge the names based on creativity, familiarity (how common/unique the name is), and on meaning. If you feel like I have made a mistake, PLEASE let me know.
4. You can jump in at any time, skip a day's category you aren't feeling it, etc. There's no real continuity between games, so posting and/or not posting is fine as far as I'm concerned. The categories will be varied!
5. Feel free to voice support for someone else's choices. You won't necessarily sway me as a judge, but I do like to see the camaraderie of fellow name lovers.
Please post up to three male and three female names. I will try to post the winner and a new category within every 24 to 48 hours.I will pick one 'best' from each individual submission, and a best overall. The collection of bests and the overall will be included in the next round's post for the curious, and for kudos purposes.
