I had a city name of Tresspassed in adventure mode... fitting that I'm about to go sneak into their homes and steal stuff.

Upon drafting a peasant into the Fortress Guard, I saw the following message.

Code: [Select]
Oddom Alathmusod has become a Recruit.
Squad "The Mechanical Bowels" has been disbanded.

I've also seen entities named "The Dawn of Radiance" (Fire Emblem FTW!) and "The Coalition of Dinner", as well as a kitten conveniently named Catten.

Well, it's not in adventure mode (sorry) and it's not funny, just a weird coincidence.

The last fort I played in 38c, my group was called The Tombs of Raining, and the first fort in a newly created world in 39, the group is The Tombs of Reigning.

"The Heavens of Carnality."  How they manage to avoid a plague of STDs, I'll never know.
"The Age of Thunderdome."  Unfortunately, this refers to a megabeast, not post-apocalyptic dispute resolutions.
"Slet Bristlebridge the Absolute Fungi of Touching."  That's just bizarre...

Laci? The question is: is that pronounced "Lack-eye" or "Lacy"? Armok knows.

It's probably pronounced "lasii". But lacy impervious nuts sounds better.

Why does a giant have an elven name anyway?

Awesome demon name in one of my more recent worlds: Atu Menacedungeon the Torrid Crypts of Sin.
On closer examination of the same world, it also has an Armor Store called The Diamond Defense. That's gotta be good for business.
...On the other hand, the world also plays host to "The Climax of Moths," a mead hall.
There's also a place I'm reminded of in a world I once visited. It was a solitary square of hillside in the middle of a dense jungle. Appropriately, it was named "The Lost Hill."

I'm fond of the time the whole inside of the world melted and fell into the center of the world.

I've got a dwarf in my fort called Bomrek Splatteredceiling. I'm training him as an axedwarf so hopefully he can live up to his name.
