So, I have a character in Yes Princess! who needs a name. The name is used for a one-shot gag (the character is actually referred to by a nick-name for the rest of the story).
He's 14-15 year old Causcasian male. I want a name that sounds...kind of goofy or old-fashioned. Any ideas?

Well, if you're looking for something equally corny, perhaps something white and English sounding like Wordsworth? And Ellsworth, Giles, Reinhold, and Everette like Snake said could actually work as last names too.
Or you could go something crazy Russian sounding like Jibawoski....which I just made up off the top of my head. lol

well, if you're looking for weird last names, here's a few:
Wartenweiler
Baumgartner
Bidlingmeier
Chabucos
Konopacki
Neuenschwander
Schlappi
VanRyswyk
i just scanned through my old yearbook for them, so they're all real last names people have, and all from white people (not hard considering the school is 99% white <_<). this is only from the seniors (our school was pretty small), but i can look up more weird last names if you want.

I love that name, but Lulu from The Reborn has the last name Smythe, so it's a bit too close.
I wouldn't want people to think that Cornelius and Lulu are related. (It would actually be pretty sad)
edit:
Wartenweiler?! I love it!

XD that's actually the first one i thought of (cuz i know a girl with that name personally), but i figured i should put some other choices just in case. |
