Not a t.v. show but a movie, and it makes me giggle uncontrollably every time…

In “Miss Congeniality,” Sandra Bullock’s undercover name for the beauty pageant is “Gracie Lou Freebush.” YESH!

I can’t believe nobody mentioned Buddy Love in the (original, and best) “Nutty Professor” - taken from “Hey Buddy” and a chorus crooning “love, love, love” in the Purple Pit.

I believe its pronounced “Throatwarbler Mangrove”.

A friend of mine used to use the name (no idea how to spell it) Guy Gaguay (Gee Gagwaa). Its from one of the Pink Panther movies. When a Peter Sellers voice is used it cracks me up every time.

In the episode where Homer hires a PI to get info on Lisa (and make him look like a better father), Homer tries to use the alias “Rock Strongo” to check into a motel while he and Lisa are “on the lam”–when the desk clerk insists on his _real_ name, he uses “Lance Uppercut”.

I can’t recall Lisa’s alias. It’s Lady something-or-other Ponyweather.

In the movie _Zabreskie Point_ (sp?) one of the people who gets arrested at a hippie protest gives his name as “Karl Marx”. We see the cop typing it up and he spells it as “Carl Marx”.

My favorite spam alias: “Garrison Ford”.

Who is Guy Incognito? I forgot.

Guy Gadoir (Gee Gad-waar) from [Return of the Pink Panther](http://us.imdb.com/find?q=Return+of+the+Pink+Panther,+The+(1974);tt=1). Sellers is being a (not) suave turtlenecked ski lodge guy.  
My friends and I use the name when we are being (not) suave.

For a retarded band I was in that did a lot of fart songs, we referred to ourselved as “Gerard LeBlanc” and “Vance Gibraltar.”

I didn’t mean fake names used for these boards, but fake names people have used (or are still using) elsewhere, in real life, or online, etc.

When Moe banned Homer from the bar on the “Fear of Flying” _Simpsons_ episode, the following exchange occurred when a man resembling Mr. Simpson entered the tavern:

**Guy: Greetings Good Men might I trouble you for  
a drink?  
Moe: Oh get out of here Homer!  
Guy: Homer? who is Homer? My name is Guy Incognito  
(Moe roughs up Guy and throws him out as Homer  
walks by.)**

**Kat** : Was it Lady Penelope Ariel Ponyweather?
