I saw a post where a guy wanted really cool superhero names. Those are easy. How about some truly awful superhero names? Names that describe the hero in less than glowing terms or let you know this might not be the best hero for the job.
Some of my own examples:
I saw a post where a guy wanted really cool superhero names. Those are easy. How about some truly awful superhero names? Names that describe the hero in less than glowing terms or let you know this might not be the best hero for the job.
Some of my own examples:
Night Blindness Lad.
Selective Hearing Girl.
Espresso, the Caffienated Man.
The Corduroy Avenger.
Faceplant.
OddSmell, the Inconceivable.
Captain Placebo.
Okay….
Your turn. Give it your best shot. If you want to include a battle cry for your new hero, feel free. For example, Captain Placebo runs into the fray with a mighty cry of “Not the face! Please GOD, not the FACE!”
I just remembered one a buddy of mine came up with in college:
BeerJaw!
(He’s a guy who drinks lots of beer before fighting and THINKS he’s invulnerable. Battle cry: “Go ahead, take a swing at me.”
