[Jimnymebob]

Wasn't one of the Virtua Fighter characters called Jeffrey McWild?

 

[Woody Invincible]

Dick Gumshoe is my cat's name, mister. Or that's Gummi to you.

 

[MudoSkills]

Geese Howard.

 

[Dee Dee]

Phoenix Wright taking first place in OP if course, but out if all the names in the series you pick Dick Gumshoe??
(It's "Misty Fey".)

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Edge Maverick is surely the champion of this topic?

 

[UnluckyKate]

Destiny's infamous Thorn wielder, Dredgen Yor

 

[timetokill]

Gumshoe is a great name for that series. I mean if that bothers you then why not list every other character in the series?



Anyway my vote is for EDGE MAVERICK.

 

[VoltySquirrel]

Frequency Vibrations or "Freq" for short in NBA 2K16's Livin' Da Dream, A Spike Lee Joint

 

[McBacon]

It's a shame we'll never get Prey 2, and we'll never get to meet the great man Killian Samuels

 

[BGBW]

WaLuigi...

 

[cloudzack117]

Hot Coldman from MGS Peace Walker

 

[Loptous]

Spoiler

Nn

Nah

Jean-Luc Cougar

 

[Waluigilicious]

All these flavours and you choose gumshoe lol

 

[Rymuth]

Dick Gumshoe is a wordplay. It isn't random.

My vote goes for Hot Coldman

 

[Blobbers]

I still think the Organization XIII names are stupid and the formula behind the names of jumbling the real name and adding "X" is even dumber.

 

[AntiFacebook]

Every main character in Final fantasy except Zidane.
All the characters in persona 3&4

Let's the list begins!


1) Dick Gumshoe from Phoenix Wright

I disagree

 

[Sexually Aggressive Uncle]

Another Metal Gear thread?

 

[Thoraxes]

Dick Gumshoe is like... perfectly named and localized, especially for something like the Ace Attorney universe which has a lot of these types of names, even in the Japanese versions.
Not only do you get the two synonyms, one each for the first and last names, but his name is almost the antithesis of his ability lol.

Master Chief is his rank, though.

WaLuigi...

And his name is John lol.

 

[Langdon Alger]

Every name in every JRPG.

 

[Spiritwalker]

Fayt - SO3

Fayt LEINGOD

which is awesome

 

[Fermbiz]

Egil from Bravely Default. Stupid character with a stupid name. I call him Kegel.

 

[adamsapple]

Sorey

like wtf ?

also i remember, my brother was watching me play the MGS3 ending and when the president goes "You are above the boss, we hereby award you the title of BIG boss"

my brother started laughing uncontrollable like what the hell is this shit.

 

[Thoraxes]

Sorey

like wtf ?

It's funny too, because all the female names in there are normal names. Alisha, Rose, Lailah, Edna.

But then you get to all the male names and it's just kinda like, uh, yeah...

 

[DodgeDusk]

Would the unique monster names from Xenoblade Chronicles count? If so, then Proper Bandaz

If not, then I'm just going to say Dingo Egret from Zone of the Enders

 

[johndoe11235]

Deepthroat mgs1. Maybe this name has some other meaning in Japanese but its hard to take someone seriously with a name like that.

 

[Dargor]

Sorey

You failed as a brother, you should have showed him where the title of Boss comes from. With a powerpoint presentation divided in six sessions, to make things easier for him to understand.

 

[Skyward Sheep]

Starkiller from The Force Unleashed.

 

[Triggerhappytel]

Deepthroat mgs1. Maybe this name has some other meaning in Japanese but its hard to take someone seriously with a name like that.

It's a pseudo-name given to anonymous informants, which originated from The Watergate Scandal.

 

[SigSig]

Deepthroat mgs1. Maybe this name has some other meaning in Japanese but its hard to take someone seriously with a name like that.

uhm... it's even explained in the game
edit: ah, beaten

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

in b4 Sol Badguy, which is actually one of the best character names out there.

Bedman though is a stupid name.

 

[ffdgh]

WaLuigi...

 

[DiipuSurotu]

Khushnood Butt - Garou: Mark of the Wolves

 

[Forkball]

Starkiller from The Force Unleashed.

Starkiller was actually Luke's original surname in Star Wars, but the studios thought it was too stupid. But what's too stupid for movies is perfect for gaming!

Besides Edge Maverick, Bubsy. Just say that out loud. Bubsy.

 

[c0Zm1c]

Fendi Nin (Guild Wars: Eye of the North) is a stupid sounding name. Perhaps there's a meaning behind it taken from the real world, which is often the case (and I'm inadvertently insulting some people's culture, I'm sorry!) but it is a stupid name.

 

[KainXVIII]

Let's the list begins!

1) Dick Gumshoe from Phoenix Wright

NeoGAF secretly loves bad names.

 

[mushrambio]

^This

 

[Kalliban]

Does this count?

 

[Hoya Destroyer]

It doesnt get any more stupid than Solid Snake and Naked Snake. They are both penis references to me.

 

[Dark_castle]

Every name in every JRPG.

Only if you play SE's JRPG. SMT franchise for example tend to use actual real life Japanese name for their characters.

 

[Iva Demilcol]

Noctis, Tidus, Roxas...

And there are still many more from where all those came from.

 

[Kaze2212]

Every main character in Final fantasy except Zidane.
All the characters in persona 3&4




I disagree

I would be really intrested in why you think so.

 

[Ranma]

"Mannimarco" in ESO.

[Hours Left]

Dick Gumshoe is an amazing name.
