(not this past week, but) I chose my current fort's (ClobberedHalls) civ (The Strategic Door) based off their deity names: Ginok Chantedlake the Chocolate Wheat (festivals, music, the rain... so, a modern music festival god, I guess? mm... chocolate wheatyness... worshipped by The Strategic Door's 1st king), Zoluth Lancercrushes (revenge), Tamol Wilfullarge (strength), and last but definitely not least,

Zimesh (=Phantom) Urnskull the Fated Burial, deity of suicide and death. And worshipped by the 2nd and 3rd kings of the civ (don't know about 4th yet). How dwarfy.

That last deity is awesome. My gothy heart twings with joy. ^u^

Just after a fire possibly started by a herd of warlock spies, I got to migrants named Dreadghost and Gloomstar. :D Awesome names. And really fitting for all the Fun going on right now.

I should mention Oil Hovelbuttock the...I forget what he/she does? And the unfortunately named Chamber Pottrap. Good with name order there, dwarven parents.

At the risk of spamming about the same subject, I just posted on the "Facepalm moments" thread about a RNG name a I got for my civ, before seeing this thread:

I think Masterwork mod was involved in the adding of that adjetive, since as I recall, vanilla doesn't have it :P

I had a fort once named Sacksizzled.  Ow.

Also, The National Fragrances, a dog leather backpack.  I imagine it being very stinky.

As of late my artifact makers have been churning out clothing. And MUGS. Armok forbid a quarzite mug be named Weaknessbristles the Helms of Flame.

Technically this isn't an artifact but one of my axemasters named his steel battle axe Flushfocused the Muddled Bowel. I assume many goblins have been disemboweled by this axe in its 20 years of use.

But the RNG name that I most adore is a gold war hammer, encrusted with gems, studded with GOLD, encircled with more gems, menacing with spikes of ash and pyrolusite, and engraved with images of Longland grass in orthoclase. Its beautiful name is The Connected Rays, a gold war hammer. Armok bless the dwarf who made it.

Not exactly awful or ridiculous, but I did get a 'nice' bed, "Lanzilstigaz, The Venerable Rasp, a gneiss bed".  I think I'll make an old folks home place it next to the 'comfy' chair.

I've made a pocket world that is 5 years old.

The only dwarven civilization is "The Rhythmic Syrups"
And my fort name is "The Elder Salve".

For some reason those two combined give me so much squick.

I got an artifact Giant Sparrow Bone bed called "Egstak Nazom, The Eviscerator of Dreams". Not sure it's awful or epic to be honest :D

Speaking to a human town priest, I was told the tale of how, in 143, the goblin Nguslu Plagueeyes was shot and killed by Canar Bowelattack the Scalded Neutralization of Air.

Death by farts.
