What the fuck? I thought this was a joke or something
Bouboulina fits her, at least.
Well in a GDR-file I read a German named Ornulf Hilarius appeared (yes it was his real name).
First thing that came to mind were some Native American names. I sometimes laugh at those (sorry), though names like Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull are kind of nice.
>Sir Francis Bacon
>Francis Bacon the painter
Being named after a piece of pork
pretty much any king or duke also styled himself as king of Jerusalem, Cyprus, Tripoli or other long lost lands in the holy land.
IIRC, the Savoys still style themselves as King of Cyprus and Jerusalem to this day.
I am forever thankful that his name in Italian is translated as "Bacone" instead of its literal meaning
>Ciccio Pancetta
King Owa Tanas Siam
>Nebuchadnezzar
In Dutch I find it sounding beautiful. The translated version that is.
Seriously? Nobody Chinese?

Chinese historical figures tend to have badass names rather than the Chingchangchong of Chinese Stereotypes.
>Lord Shang.
>Gaozu Emperor
>Sun Tzu
>SHENLONG Emperor
>Lord Yu.
>Li Shimin.
Liu Pang and Cao Cao are pretty funny though, until you start reading up on their lives.
>Gaozu Emperor
Gaozu is a posthumous title roughly meaning "Supreme Founder." Appending the title "Emperor" behind it is inappropriate.
>Sun Tzu
Tzu is a term of address roughly meaning "Master" or "Teacher." His given name was Sun Wu.
Also, considering you used "Lord Shang" and "Lord Yu" instead of "Shang Jun" and so on, you're showing incredible lack of consistency.
>SHENLONG Emperor
Shenlong is a term roughly meaning "divine dragon." There is no such Emperor with that posthumous name or personal name.
>Liu Pang
I assume you got your Wade-Giles and pinyin confused and mean Liu Bang, who you already mentioned, because Gaozu was the posthumous title of Liu Bang.
>Cao Cao
If you're going to give LIu Bang a pass by using a posthumous title you might as well call him by his posthumous title Taizu or Emperor Wu.
