Don Hastily- elf
This character was from a 3e game 10-12 years ago. Someone else in the group showed up to the game with a multiple page background and family tree and ridiculous full name and title. It inspired another player to name his character Don Hastily, it was great. The guy with the too long irrelevant background was pissed off every time he heard the character's name used. 'Hey, Don Hastily, how long does it take to put your armor on quickly?' Still makes me laugh.

Tongue and cheek you mean? tongue in cheek sounds painful.
I saw some over on dragonsfoot that made me chuckle: "hugo first", "bowen darrow"...

I had a warforged bard in Eberron once, named Victrola (Vic for short).
And more recently I had a Magic-User named Bob Eran, because Beach Boys.

My Google Hangouts game has a scout pilot: Crash Enburn, and a steward: Patrick Stewart.
I love these kinds of names as long as they aren't totally silly.

I knew a girl who always played magic-users named Dihttoo (do I have to think of one?), pronounced ditto.

For the past 6.5 years, I've been playing an AD&D character named Horc, a contraction of Half-Orc. He was named in the manner of Melf (Male Elf).
As aside, with this group the DM has run about 120 sessions (~18/year). The entire campaign has revolved around a single module, the Temple of Elemental Evil. Horc just reached 7th level in Fighter, making him a 7/7 Fighter/Cleric (no level limits). He worships the deity Fharlanghn, whose name I still have trouble pronouncing.

Quite a few in puerile Star Wars & sci-fi games:
Cap'n San Holo
Artoo Morenwon
See Meepee-ewwww
A few more:
Gandwarf, Gandobbit, Gandorc, Gandude
Seeget from CG E(lf) T(hief), Ellen H. Mu from LN h(uman) M(agic)-U(ser)... those pretty much write themselves.
Raizenbrayne (from needing a name quickly while I was eating Raisin Bran; now probably my most used character name).

I once played an outrageous fop of a magic-user who called himself Arius the Wonderfully Grand. His whole purpose for adventuring was to find the Soundtrack spell which, when cast on someone, would follow them around playing soundtrack music appropriate to any situation. The foolish DM had included this in his list of possibly available spells, and I wasn't going to let that go unused! Alas, he never managed to find it.
