I have decided to go over to the dark side. (And I’ll thank those of you who are thinking that, as a conservative, i already have, to keep a civil tongue in your… well, a civil finger on your keyboard).
Unfortunately, I can’t go it alone. I must assemble a team of evil peers.
What should we call ourselves?
(In other words, I’m looking for names that suggest a nefarious group of evildoers, like “Legion of Doom,” but since that one’s already taken…)

Do you have a name for your lair?
I suggest “The Dark Garden Shed”. Or “The Mancave of Shadows”.

The association can get by with a generic title ie (The Four Horsemen, WWE etc).
The real sense of forboding comes from the handles/reputation of the indivdual ne’er do wells. (And at least one of you has to have a title with connotations of nobility. Something like “Bricker, Lord of the Demonspawn…”)

Really depends on your goals. White collar crime? Old school mob-style organized crime? Drug trafficking? World domination? Joker-style chaos?

Seriously, just call yourself “Malice” and have done with it.

Oh, almost forgot that part! Acronymability is another important consideration.

If you enjoy Dwarf Fortress, you could fire up a new world and flip through randomly-generated group names. You get some gems in English AND Dwarvish, such as (to quote one example from [this thread](http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=69464.0)) “The Carnal Cat-Fountains”. (Or [The Squeezing Seduction-Tentacles of Squirting](http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=68586.msg1647937#msg1647937).)
