The Imm names have set the bar, really. I don't think the players can be expected to try really hard to avoid conjugations when the imms have chosen to call themselves stuff that barely passes rules

As far as conjugations, I personally have one of the most stupid ones of all time and nobody has ever complained about it. I guess one mother did, but only because she was frightened her son's computer would get hacked by me. Was unintentional of course. Like I'm sure this one also is

It's all in good fun. Though I just noticed Weawin is We Win! So, I bet something could be found with any name.

And somehow, a player is currently called "Kayn" even though that's basically both a variant of "Kain", "Cain", "Caine", etc., and also a well-known League of Legends champion. Don't tell me nobody else noticed this!

Cain in general is a Biblical reference too.

Back in the day I had a char named "watohi"
While I had intended it to be "wah-too-ee" a friend was quick to point out I had just named myself "way-too-high". Most of the time people mean it, but you can come up with something from almost any name.

I had the random name generator come up with Vassar once. Turns out it’s a college, I got called out on that real quick.

I remember me and Xerties tried to make halfling thieves with Frodo and sam’s full names scrambled up. Our one goal was to find the one ring and destroy it. Our RP was great but someone made us change names, in the right clearly, but then it lost its excitement and we never played again. This was when we still had the ring in game.

I posted a screenshot on the forums the other year somewhere of the in-game name generator suggesting the name 'Cum'.
