While I wait for inspiration for my 'main' game, I'm planning of making a a small humoristic game. The 'hero' is a man working in a boring statistics archive, and now I need your examples of boring names for his grey boing co-workes and bosses.

I find the folowing names boring, but i need more.

Surenames:
Mr Smith
Mr Samson

First names:
George
Fred
Phil

Babar

First names:
John
Robert
Jim

Last Names:
Robertson
Johnson
Jackson


I think there is an online database of names used in the US. You could just get the most common
The ultimate Professional Amateur

Now, with his very own game: Alien Time Zone

Indie Boy

I won't use this login.
Try IndieBoy instead

Oneway

And what is it exactly that we're supposed to give crits on?

On how absolutely boring as hell Potter's name is! Robert... HA!
Only joking, if you want a really boring name try Richard... I hate it.
As for surnames how about:
Jones (It would have to be a welsh character.. they're all called jones)
Wilson
Davis
Branston(look at Richard Branston... really boring name...)

Now im going to stop because all im coming up with is names of my friends from infant school...

Where can we find this database, could really come in handy.

Thanks - Rich
Seeing as I really shouldn't have to get up at such an ungodly hour as 7am, ill put my watch forward by 5 hours to make me feel better...

Colours are a safe bet for surnames: white, black, brown, green......purple?

You could use characters like in 'The Adding Machine'.

Mr. One
Mrs. One
Mr. Two
Mrs. Two
Mr. Three
Mrs. Three
Mr. Four
Mrs. Four
...

Dude

Marv, Bill, Jim, Don, Walter.

Peter Thomas

Craig. Definitely craig. I used to like the name until I met one. Now it just seems ordinarily common to me. Definitely craig.

AGA: "Shush, FAG!"
