I've always been quite impressed by Anomander Rake. Tim Send a noteboard - 19/09/2010 10:05:10 PM
Also, as temeraire mentioned, Iain [M] Banks has some pretty good names, especially for spaceships in his Culture novels. Examples include Very Little Gravitas Indeed and Ravished By The Sheer Implausibility Of That Last Statement.

That is a good name, I agree. Camilla - 19/09/2010 10:18:37 PM 859 Views
I like that the older beings in Malazan have varying names (e.g. Anomandaris Purake). *NM* Ghavrel - 20/09/2010 02:20:15 AM 435 Views
I was going to mention that one myself, too. Just rolls right off the tongue. Delicious. *NM* lord-of-shadow - 20/09/2010 06:13:10 AM 504 Views
