Todd Bonzalez is peak comedy.
Yeah actual baseball players have names way weirder than these.
Odrisamer Despaigne.
Now check this out: he played for the San Diego Padres, and his name contains all the letters needed to spell out “San Diego Padres”.
I apologise to my future son, Scott Dourque.
SLEVE MCDICHAEL
Is that Dwigt from Threat Level Midnight?

MCRLWAIN hurts my brain to pronounce
Bobson Dugnutt. Lmfao
I’m naming my firstborn Bobson.
It would make sense if your name is Bob
like jr, but for bobs
Your grandchild will be named Bobsonson
the scientist who found the Hicks Bobsonson
Gotta say if it was some guy working a blue collar job in Kentucky I would think “Yeah that’s pretty expected”
Straight out of republican voting ballots.
I’ve seen this so many times but the name Shown gets me every time… it’s fucking classic
This looks like what would happen if you had a real set of American names, but then played a long game of telephone with people that have increasingly thick accents.
Simpsons Death Note parody
stupid question but shouldn’t this be on disney+ ? I can’t find any of the treehouse of horrors…
It’s on Hulu rn, since it’s the newest season.
It’s this season, #34, episode 6. If not Disney+, it’s probably on Hulu. There’s also an excellent Westworld parody that same episode that makes it easily the best Simpsons episode made in a very long time.
If you don’t have Hulu, you can find it on himovies.
Newer Simpsons has actually been really good. Poorhouse Rock was a shockingly good episode about how lucky Homer was economically and how fucked Bart is nowadays.
Didn’t they do their Westworld parody in season 5 with “The Boy Who Knew Too Much”?
Cool my buddy Onsen Sweemey is listed there
What a crazy deep cut of an easter egg. i’m impressed anyone even noticed this. That’s awesome!
ProZD’s reading of these names is amazinglink

Ha, this is great. I checked his channel like “what does this guy even do, I hope he’s a voice actor or something” and I am now cracking up at all his content.
Every time I see this, I always remind people the full set of names is online.
Lmao Cleveland Queens 🤣
Eyyyy Sleve Denes
Making this must have been exhausting. I have a hard enough time coming up with one name in an RPG. I want to hear the story of the guy who had to come up with all of this.
What I’ve found helps me is picking three or four character traits I’m going to roleplay and run them through a translator twice (ex. English -> Hawaiian-> Czech turns ‘tenacious’ into věrnost. Then I’d judge how badly I’d pronounce it and English-ify it a little to Verno or Varnost)
It helps to pick languages that have a few language barriers between where they originated. Like English -> German doesn’t work because they share a common root language and half of German speaks English as a second language now.
I use a variation of this to write music rounds for quizzes. Run lyrics through a translator then back to English and get people to name the song. My last round was called Korea Change (i.e I translated it to Korean and back).
At least some of these names have to be knockoffs of actual athletes, right? For example, he’s no “Sleve McDichael”, but Steve McMichael was a player for the Greenbay Packers football team when this game came out.
Yeah, a lot of them seem to be real names with a couple of letters switched, added or removed.
