My main fortress is called Letterdistant, pretty boring. But when I copied my install folder and did that quick mod to let you play as humans, and embarked on top of an existing human town, my new fortress was given the name Fruitykindness.

I immediately started walling off some of their buildings and stealing all their food.

The Bearded Faces Of Death
Pure win. Sorry for the offtopic. I just needed to say it.

Next time I name anything military-related, it will be The Bearded Faces Of Death.

My current fortress is called "The Cavern Of Caves." The group name is a bit more inventive, being "The Bones Of The Earth."

Urnmurders, an outpost of The Severe Gates,  has 13 pelicans and 19 pelican chicks. Thanks, cage traps!

Two squads refuse to equip anything: they are called The Ramparts of Roughness and The Walled Boats. Damn hippies.

Not a fortress or group but an artifact scepter called "The Single Tribute"

Had a fort called "Agakiseth Lam", I forget what it translates to but something about virgin anus tunnels or something..

My most recent fortress was Icybeers.  I built it on a glacier.

I typed 'rum' in the string filter and found there was no rum. So now my fortress name is 'Crumblecrumble the Rumored Rumored Drum-Drum of Crumbling' because I selected whatever word was on top for each type of word.

Sadly there is no apparently no word for "dwarf" in dwarven, but otherwise you could hypothetically have a fort called Dwarffortress founded by The Bunch of Dwarves.
