These are fun, but not too much fun. Like Mad Libs or dirty knock-knock jokes. We don’t want to go nuts here with all the raw humor flying off the screen.
Name Generators are a simple enough concept. You take a series of facts about you and combine them in ways that represent the identity you are trying to create for yourself. What? Did that sentence even make sense? I don’t know, I don’t re-write or spell check.
Here’s an example. Your Star Wars name is the first 3 letters of your last name and the first 2 letters of your first name. Mine’s Reima.
Reima…That’s the name of some old Jamaican lady I work with.
Star Wars sucks.
Or how about this! Your porn star name. Whoa ho! Hey-o! Combine your first pet’s name with the first neighborhood you ever lived in. Call me Elvis Golfcourse and I’m here to get biss-aye!
*fartzz*
I can do better than that.
