Unfavourite names

[Fortune Clutterbuck]

Moist Von Lipwig *shudder*

It just really puts me off the character

[unseenu]

It would probably be Agnes Nitt/Perditia X Dream for me.

[Tonyblack]

I can't honestly think of one.

[Bouncy Castle]

Watching Going Postal over Christmas, I think that the Smoking Gnu is much funnier seeing it written than it is voiced.

OK, back on topic......................

[Fortune Clutterbuck]

Yes, anagrams don't translate well to the spoken word alas

Also not too keen on "Twoflower"

[Tiffany]

I think Twoflower is a daft name for a man. I think TP named him very tongue in cheek.
I do like the name Rincewind though.

[Bouncy Castle]

I always thought Annagramma was great!

[MongoGutman]

"The Dean", "The Bursar" etc - I'd prefer using their "real" names

[Fortune Clutterbuck]

I confess I used to get very muddled remembering who was whom in the higher echelons of UU

Mainly because most of them seem to be interchangeable.

[Fortune Clutterbuck]

I am afraid in the end they were reduced in my mind to the one who liked hunting and the one who needed dried frogs pills to keep him going

It's the Chair in Indefinite Studies, the Senior Wrangler and the Lecturer in Recent Runes that I totally can't peg down as characters.

Having worked in a university I can honestly say that it is very normal to have academics wandering around who seem to have no particular job to do...and generally seem to be undefined attachments.

[raptornx01]

I always liked Recent Runes for some reason. the Chair was always kind of indefinable. the senior wrangler alloyed me a bit though in hogfather.

Ever listened to Steven Briggs read them? He's fantastic. Although I muddle up the above characters as well when actually reading, Mr Briggs really gives them their own identity (sometimes a teensy bit like other characters, but hey). Amazing, that man .

OT: I can't think of a character name that bugs me. Sorry. Moist von Lipvig is supposed to be an awful name I think and Perdita; well, sounds like a stage name to me.
Oops, wait. I don't particularly like the name Jewelz (or something like it - I listened to the book, haven't read it properly yet) from UA.
