Did you try looking from the military screen?  You can use v to get info about a squad, and the name is at the top of the screen.  Most names fit in there.

One of mine sounds more like a sports team than a military squad "The Mighty Seals."


Best squad name:  "The Hatchets of God"

Hey, you're right. (Now I feel stupid...)

And Hatchets of God is a nice one, but could they defeat The Invisible Purple Syrups of Land? I think not. (More likely they would be killed the moment they collapsed on the floor, laughing... :))

What do I need to pierce to wear that thing?

On second thought maybe I don't want to know.

The only downside is that thongs tend to obscure it from view.

Okay, not a squad, but I just rolled up a new fortress and got a good laugh out of the fact that it's called 'Bustmouths'.  :D

I'm going to take that as a promising sign and assume it's my dwarves that are going to be doing the mouth-busting, and not all the skeletal critters running around...

"The Geared Razors Of Hair"
and
"The Tin Baldnesses"

I guess the military makes them shave when they join the army.

My current post-invasion army has only one squad left - the Pages of Kissing.

You need to rename your squad leader to Mark Foley.

Its not a squad name, but a civilization name -   "The Sin of Sluts" .

Its a goblin empire, and I imagine it to be a crazy theocracy ruled by a vicious priest elite. Their society is really misoganistic, and the only hobbies the religious cast allows the general public is sitting around in seedy pubs, talking about how crap women are, and how they always cheat. The Priest-king of the empire had his first girlfriend leave him for some bishie elf, you see, and he has been bitter about it ever since.

The reason the goblins launch frequent attacks against my fortress is to get away from the draconian rulings of the theocracy - Sunday sermons are word for word recounts of the priest-kings drunken musings on how all women are evil, which really bores the liety. The general consensus is that dieing on a weapon trap is 100x better than listening to that once week.

My best squat name is  "The Oblivious of work" Very fitting for these damned soldiers, half the squad had to die before they even bothered shooting the elephant.
