Best TV Show Character Name

From “the Flintstones”:

Cary Granite
Ann-Marg-rock
Stony Curtis
Ed Sulleystone
Rock Hudstone
Alvin Brickrock
Perry Masonite

While we’re on the subject of Simpsons name gags:

Woody Allenesque fortune cookie writer, on seeing Homer’s work: He’s like a young me!
Second fortune cookie writer: Nah, Yung Mi was a hack compared to this guy!

STEVE HOLT!
On a serious note, I rather like Benjamin Franklin “Hawkeye” Pierce.

Eustace Pockle, who was a guest character (accused shoplifter) on an episode of Petticoat Junction. If I ever get on VH1’s World Series of Pop Culture, my team name will be The Eustace Pockle Jury.

Barney Rubble
Thursten Howell III
Vinny Barbarino

Along those lines…

“Turonga?!”

“It’s her first name, Philip.” Ahh, Futurama.

I didn’t know that about Emma Peel, but it’s a nice sounding name either way.

Not a TV show, but I’ve always loved the name Sally Bowles.

The Venture Brothers has a slew of them:

Baron Von Ünderbeit.
Jefferson Twilight, blacula hunter.
Col. Hunter Gathers (a satire of Hunter S. Thompson, of course.)
Doctor Girlfriend
And, of course, the best name ever in the history of anything:

Molotov Cocktease.

I like a lot of the ones from Scrubs

Dr. Mickhead
Colonel Doctor
Doctor Beardface
Keith Dudemeister

and The Janitor (or Dr. Jan Itor)

Phobe B. Beebee

There’s some good ones on that show:

Ron Stoppable
Señor Senior Sr.
Señor Senior Jr.
Duff Killigan
Falsetto Jones
DNAmy
and of course, Shego and her brothers, Mego and Wego.

It also amuses me that Shego calls the evil Dr. Drakken, “Dr. D.”

The Drake!!

LOVE the Drake! :cool:

HATE the Drake! :mad:

Another Seinfeld character of course…

Continuing with Seinfeld, I always liked Franlin Delano Romanowski.

And this season, the Evil Female Mistress Of Disguise, Chamille Leone.

“Boss Hogg,” which was not only a commentary on the character’s girth and greed, but was derived from the name “Hagg” which was the family name of the moonshine running family in Moonrunners, on which the Dukes of Hazzard was based.

Heck, I’ll throw in “Cooter Davenport.” I never knew his first name had a naughty connotation until recently.

Also, Santos L. Halper.

Like “hello” in Korean? :confused:

No, like in “Anne Young! Haven’t seen you in yoinks, darling. Let’s do lunch. Ta ta!”

:smiley:

A Korean kid on Arrested Development. He always said “An Yong!” so everyone thought that was his name.

Nobody mentioned “The Tick” (the cartoon one)?

Ya got:

Chairface Chippendale
The fake Tick, Barry Hubris
Bipolar Bear
El Seed
Captain Mucilage & 4-Legged Man from the Civic-Minded Five
Sarcastro
The Breadmaster and his assistant, Buttery Pat
The Evil Midnight Bomber What Bombs At Midnight
The Man-eating Cow

…just to name a few!

The old Jim Henson sitcom Dinosaurs had a newscaster named Howard Handupme.

Also, rewatching old Pinky and the Brains on DVD, I am often amused by the wacky aliases the Brain comes up for the two of them. Two of my favorites are a politician named Ned Limpopo and an Icelandic astronaut named Dr. Nicky Jiggleitalittleitllopen. (Then again, their sister show Animaniacs had some amusing names as well, one of the most memorable being Professor Otto von Schniztlepusskrankengesheitmeyer.)

From MAS*H, Lt. Dish and nurses Abel and Baker (played by interchangable actresses)

From Bullwinkle, Boris Badenov

Thomas Hewitt Edward Cat from the short-lived TV series T.H.E. Cat

Johnny Carson’s characters Art Fern and Floyd Turbo.
