Fake Name Generator
Although the title is fake name generator, these names look and sound like the real thing. This generator is one of the most detailed you will find.

It creates both realistic Euro-American names and Hispanic names.

Of all the names I just generated the pirate one is my favorite, so just call me Frownin' Jezebel Napier from now on.
* Follow-Up* Maybe you already "field-tested" yer generators, Will - hope so. The Pirate Name Generator was too alluring for me not to try. (Maybe it's because I'm on THE West Coast and/or I have a pirate alter ego - my legs, eyes, and hands are just fine, thank ye, but I do like parrots). Should we address you as "Yellow Hubert Dawkins" now? (rotflmao)... Arrr!, Cap'n Nigel Cannonbait aka Michael Kent Miller (smile)
Great leads for when one is constipated with "the writer's block," Will - thanks. Another consideration: look to the "Sender" in your Bulk or Spam folder... Of course, there's always "current events" - like who can resist the marriage magic of Nicolas or Carla...even Bruni would work. And Elysee Palace - what a name for a femme fatale! - could rival Paris Hilton... In the name of, Michael
haha i remember doing these in college after coming back from a party. they were much more funny then hahaha
Guess I should do it too: Celebrity Baby Name: Cormorant Muenster Wright. Me Pirate name be: Yellow Hubert Dawkins.
This is fantastic !...wow..
LOL... The Jedi name generator uses a prescription drug name to specify my planet! ROFL!
Celeb baby name: Zemon Niagara Barefoot. I'm pushing that off on my first grandkid. Nerd: Zach, the Plan 9 Magician. Pirate: Cap'n Gus Firebeard. How did it know I recently regrew my beard? Spooky.
