Which (NS) Nation Has the Coolest Name?

Roach-Busters
24-02-2005, 01:04
For me, it's either Drunk commies, You are not logged in, or Cannot think of a name.
Refused Party Program
24-02-2005, 01:05
No contest. :cool:
Chicken pi
24-02-2005, 01:06
The Tribes Of Longton has a pretty good name, in my opinion.
Neo-Anarchists
24-02-2005, 01:07
For me, it's either Drunk commies, You are not logged in, or Cannot think of a name.
Yeah, Cannot think of a name is probably my favorite.
Legless Pirates
24-02-2005, 01:09
Is the "Dixie Beer Truck" (or something?) still around?
Roach-Busters
24-02-2005, 01:10

Not sure. Either way, you can nominate him/her.

yes those 2 are my favs....also like:

angry fruit salad
roach busters
legless pirates
lascivious maximus
upward thrust


all of those are awesome.
Swimmingpool
24-02-2005, 01:12
It's got to be Roach-Busters or Defensor Fidei. Maybe Legless Pirates or You Forgot Poland.
Callisdrun
24-02-2005, 01:14
Bitchkitten or Refused Party Program
Roach-Busters
24-02-2005, 01:14
:cool:

Thanks a lot!

Swimmingpool is a good name.
Der Lieben
24-02-2005, 01:17
Bitchkitten, definitely.
Wild Hand Motions
24-02-2005, 01:19
I'd say Bitchkitten or Whispering Legs. I don't know why, but I like the name Whispering Legs.
Rasselas
24-02-2005, 01:22
I like You Forgot Poland and Cannot think of a name
Oksana
24-02-2005, 01:25
Drunk commies tops my list. Every time here it, I get this definite image of what he/she must look like. If that's what he/she really does look like, then he's alright in my book.
Oksana
24-02-2005, 01:26
Angry fruit salad. I mean... can you really figure out what she's implying in that name? That she's angry? How angry can fruit salad really get?
Jordaxia
24-02-2005, 01:26
I dunno. There are a lot of great names....
Just out of what I think has style, Lascivious Maximus.
MuhOre
24-02-2005, 01:27
Sanctaphranx...because i always think of a Santa as a Mummy in his sarcouphagus when i think of him. :P
Steel Butterfly
24-02-2005, 01:29
Obviously it's that nation called Steel Butterfly. I love that guy.
Teh Cameron Clan
24-02-2005, 01:30
either mine cuz it has "teh" in it or inetadmin (that was the admin password for my achool district...yes i was al powerful for a while... :P)
Oksana
24-02-2005, 01:32
LM's name does have style. Every time I hear it, I imaigine him in like a purple pimp coat. Questionable names: Celebrity Frogs. Is it suppose to be CF as in the frogs celebrities own or frogs that look like celebs? These are the kinds of questions that go through my head.
Jjuulliiaann
24-02-2005, 01:33
Swimingpool, Roach-Busters, or, of course, Jjuulliiaann.

EDIT: I just completely changed my mind. Sorry swimingpool, Roach-Busters, and me.

My new list:
Frisbeeteria
Kreihelm
Caladonn
Travistaan (my puppet)

I like these names because they sound cool and don't mean anything (at least in English they don't).
Oksana
24-02-2005, 01:33
Since when has 'teh' been a sound?
What is Not Dubya
24-02-2005, 02:44
I like Legless Pirates, and Bitchkitten.

Chicken pi is an interesting name. Hey PM I saw your pic. Pretty hair. :)

Err, if it's not a sound, how come I can say it out loud?

You aren't.... *makes allusions to your other thread of evil*
You just think that you are.

Mine.

Okay, now my real choices.

1.)Bitchkitten
2.)Cannot Think of a Name
3.)Pure Metal
4.)Jordaxia
5.)Kaukolastan
Oksana
24-02-2005, 03:16
I didn't say it wasn't a sound, I wanted to know when people started using it.

Whoa.... kick-ass. it's just a corruption of my middle name. I mea... nothing.

No. What the real question is, is... "who has the most modlike name?" It's quite simple. I'm exempt from being a mod for several reasons, such as my unsuitability for the role, the fact they aren't looking for one, and the fact that there's about a million people more suited. However, the real reason is I don't have a modname. It's quite simple. Jordaxia is not a modname. typical modnames end in stan, or are a concept or are quite surreal, or all three. Cannot think of a name is too long. But otherwise is perfect. The only other modname in this thread is steel butterfly. Very few mods have names that don't fit into the modname category. The only one I can think of is GMC military (last word forgotten)

Waken up to the conspiracy, people!

Just look around you and see the conspiracy!

If my name made sense or was a joke name, in other words completely different, I bet it would rank very highly.

:D
Bitchkitten
24-02-2005, 04:49
Favorites (besides my own :D ) are Legless Pirates, Lascivious Maximus and Cannot think of a name.
Cannot think of a name

It's GMC Military Arms, I believe.

A lot of the time my name gets shortened to CToaN on the rare occasion that people adress me. Not that I would make a good moderator.

This is the most love I've ever gotten here. Thanks all.

Since my name is honest, I like most of the names here. Makes me whish I had thought of at least something. Walrustopia, Walrustan, Walrusia, Upper Northern Walruczechislot. Grover's Mill, that've been cool. Peroquial Walrusian Naropian Denoplia, so my initials would be PWND. dammit.

There are some names that made me laugh out loud the first time I saw them, but I don't know them off the top of my head. I like Lunatic Goofballs, it lets you know what you're up for. Legless Pirates gives me the same impression.
The Plutonian Empire
24-02-2005, 05:41
Bitchkitten, Neo-Anarchists, Lascivious Maximus (even though I tend to be a bit jealous sometimes :D ), and a few other nations who's names I can't remember right now :D
Eternal randomness
24-02-2005, 05:58
The Squirrel Infested Lands of BaalZoria is pretty good, just cuz squirrels make me laugh
Eternal randomness
24-02-2005, 06:06
heres a couple more i found that i just have to laugh over

The Disputed Territories of Fallopian Tube
The Emporium of Discount Liquor
The Totally Nuts Unholy Empire of Bloodthirsty squirrels
The Huge Frikking Kingdom of Evil cookies

and im sure there are plenty of them i havent seen, but are equally great. not to mention i love my own name, lol
Cats Keep
24-02-2005, 06:15
I think that The Sojourner Cats is a cool national name.
Harlesburg
24-02-2005, 06:16
The Tribes Of Longton has a pretty good name, in my opinion.
i concur but as a nation not as a person.
Basically as a non RP name legless pirates and stuff like that.
Aerou has a cool name its a nation and a name. ;)
BLARGistania
24-02-2005, 06:33
I like RPP, You Forgot Poland, Upward Thrust, Lunatic Goofballs, Angry Fruit Salad, and Tink's original name "The Fairy Tinkerbelly"
Lascivious Maximus
24-02-2005, 06:42
I can't beleive my name is up here! Thanks dudes/dudettes!! Thas so nice of you! :fluffle:

I have to give my nods to

'Jordaxia' 'Ravea' 'Shaed' 'Sanctaphrax' 'Oksana' 'Aerou' 'Mercutio Prime' and 'Haken Rider' (there are many more, but I can't be bothered to post more than that right now! :))

I like names that are uncommon, so them ones sort of drive me ;)
Used Tire
24-02-2005, 06:45
Not to be tooting my own horn, or to make myself seem overly narscisistic, but I like my name. :D

Or Bitchkitten.
Lascivious Maximus
24-02-2005, 06:48
There are lots of names that make me laugh too, like 'Legless Pirates' 'Lunatic Goofballs' 'Bitchkitten' 'Cannot Think of a Name' and the like - - I have to give it to them for their spunk and creativity! :)
Oksana
24-02-2005, 06:56
I must be have the most uncreative name. It's boring, and I couldn't think of anything else. I also have been told it sounds like a drag queen's name. At least it's easy to type and remember.
Islamigood
24-02-2005, 06:56
I like my name :)

Islamigood is almost as good as Islamibad
Bitchkitten
24-02-2005, 07:00
I've seen some other really cool names, but I went with some that I'm most familiar with. They stick in my memory better.
Aerou
24-02-2005, 07:27
i concur but as a nation not as a person.

Yay for being able to use my real name as my nations name! Haha....

And I would still love to know how to pronounce it
Aerou
24-02-2005, 07:41
And I would still love to know how to prenounce it

"Ah-row" is how its supposed to be pronounced. "Arrow" is what I normally hear, either one is fine.
Oksana
24-02-2005, 07:44
So like arrow but the A is like a Spanish or French A
Findecano Calaelen
24-02-2005, 07:45

thanks now I can stop calling you Air-row :)
Aerou

Awww, well you can say it however you want, its closer then a lot of the ways I hear it pronounced here.

I......don't even know how to respond to that........
Oksana

Neither did I.
Kryozerkia
24-02-2005, 08:14
Obviously it's that nation called Steel Butterfly. I love that guy.
Hmn...shameless shelf-nomination... I like that idea!

I vote for my puppet of Farflorin! ^_^ if not that, then this nation, Kryozerkia!

But, Steel Butterfly is a good name, so it Cannot Think of a Name...
Aerou
24-02-2005, 08:17
Neither did I.

Wait...

You didn't know how to respond to it, but you did?

24-02-2005, 09:24

Well, I'm Polish (born and raised in Lodz), but its not a Polish name. I think my mother was just trying to be as weird as possible :)
Dresophila Prime
24-02-2005, 09:27
Exactly my point...never heard it in my life.

On the other hand, be glad you weren't raised by beatnicks...the kind that names their kids 'ecstasy' and 'codominance' and such... :D
Aerou

Haha I suppose I should be grateful I got Aerou instead of "Codominance", but its still just so random and weird.

I kind of like being unique :). I imagine that if I heard someone else with the name it wouldn't be as fun anymore.
Kelleda
24-02-2005, 09:42
I don't know how cool my name is, but I rather like the fact that it sounds like an authentic name for a sovereign state.

I don't remember who said they had trouble coming up with names, but I know I've given up on coming up with names and now I just use the handle of Sir Unimaginative.

24-02-2005, 16:06
Naturally, I've got the best name. But the reason I'm here is to throw some respect at my regional UN delegate. While his name is nothing remarkable, his flag is a monument to simple, elegant beauty and his national motto makes me laugh until I cry.

I like names that play on actual nation names. Stanistani and Lithuanighanistania come to mind. (I think they've both passed into the great beyond, though.)

I also like names that evoke an image: Bodies without Organs, Legless Pirates, and yes, Itinerate Tree Dwellers fit that bill.
Adamsgrad
24-02-2005, 16:18
My nation's name is Adamsgrad, what do you people think?

Essentially, think of Stalingrad, then add Adams (my surname) before the grad to make, Adamsgrad, The Republic of Adamsgrad.

You Forgot Poland is very funny, by the way, I like it.

Actually it stems from me cheating in a game when I had to name an animal that begins with C and I couldn't think of one!!!

also: Legless Pirates

Exactly my point...never heard it in my life.

On the other hand, be glad you weren't raised by beatnicks...the kind that names their kids 'ecstasy' and 'codominance' and such... :D
Theres a commune of Vietnam draft dodgers near where I grew up in BC (a lot of them without power or running water!!) Basically hippies still lost deep in the sixties, they grow a lot of dope, have a 'harvest fest' in autumn, and yes - name their kids all sorts of unusual names. For example, some I went to school with: Rainbow, Willow, Free (you get the point)... I love the names for their originality, but I can't imagine anyone with names like that ever landing a serious job (not that they were brought up with any emphasis on that anyway!) :)

Still, I like names that are out of the ordinary *wishing I had a more interesting and uncommon name*

Angry Fruit Salad
25-02-2005, 08:30
Angry fruit salad. I mean... can you really figure out what she's implying in that name? That she's angry? How angry can fruit salad really get?


Did I ever tell you guys what the name really means?
Lascivious Maximus
25-02-2005, 08:31
No but I want to know!!! Do tell! :)
Angry Fruit Salad
25-02-2005, 08:36
No but I want to know!!! Do tell! :)

It comes from a prank I pull on mofos who don't pay me. I run a computer repair business (mostly software repairs and such), and when I worked alone, I had a problem with people not paying me. Since they were usually completely computer illiterate (and ALL running Windows) I'd reset their colorschemes to unreadable, painful day-glo colors.

The name for such a colorscheme in a GUI (graphical user interface) is Angry Fruit Salad, seen in the Hacker Jargon Dictionary.

angry fruit salad: n.
A bad visual-interface design that uses too many colors. (This term derives, of course, from the bizarre day-glo colors found in canned fruit salad.) Too often one sees similar effects from interface designers using color window systems such as X; there is a tendency to create displays that are flashy and attention-getting but uncomfortable for long-term use.

Don't worry about it. People never seem to be able to spell it. I don't even remember you spelling my name wrong, so take solace in the fact that you didn't butcher it badly enough that I'd even remember what you did to it.
