WOO HOO! IT'S: The Crappy Little Elf Name Generator
These days, elves have more fun.
We're serious. Look at that Legolas; of all the characters in JRR Tolkein's vaguely asinine fantasy trilogy, he has received the most attention. The most fame. Indeed, the most love, and as we learn from the widely-known subtext of The Lord of the Rings, there ain't no loving like elf loving. Even his little elfin ears seem to drip with sweaty, salty man juices.
Or something. Anyway, everything else aside, elves are fucking everywhere these days and we know you want to be one. In true altruistic Rum and Monkey tradition, we intend to help you - just type your human name below and we'll do the rest.


My crappy little elf name is Juniper Horsebeard.
What's yours?
Powered by Rum and Monkey.

5. yep, that's me..
"Can you feel it? You seem smaller ... faster ... pointier ... elfier. You too can ride horses in fictitious English countryside settings while
spouting utterly wooden, pretentious lines, wishing you were back at home smoking a bowl instead of questing with two hairy toadpeople who clearly wish they were smoking each other.

Nevertheless. Courageous to the core, your elf name is:


Mudface Hairtoe


Now all you must do is seek out the one true ring. If you know what we mean, fnar fnar. "

10. Brookbank Horsebeard
Is it me, or do these mostly sound more like Hobbit names than Elf?

Not that I've actually READ Tolkien.

8. I put a few famous names throught the generator, with some startling
dicoveries!

Wesley Clark = Tealeaf Clouddash -X
John Kerry = Oakhand Merryweather
John Edwards = Oakhand Horsebeard -0
Howard Dean = Chipboard Horsebeard -0
Dennis Kucinich = Elfis Granitebottom -*
Michael Moore = Moorhen Moonface
George W bush = Moorhen Clouddash -X
Dick Cheney = Duskglow Horsebeard -0
Mel Gibson = Shetland Granitebottom -*

Clark and Shrub ended up with the same elf clan.
Edwards, Dean AND Cheney are all members of a different elf clan.
Oddly enough Gibson and Kucinich shared the surname "Granitebottom"(draw your own conclusions)
However Kerry and Moore had unique surnames, which suggests to me that neither are beholding to special interests.
As to the others, I may have uncovered a dire elf conspiracy! :o

24. Merriam Webster defines it as such:
Main Entry: nob·ble
Pronunciation: 'nä-b&l
Function: transitive verb
Inflected Form(s): nob·bled; nob·bling /-b(&-)li/
Etymology: perhaps irregular frequentative of nab
1 British : to incapacitate (a racehorse) especially by drugging
2 slang British a : to win over to one's side b : STEAL c : SWINDLE, CHEAT d : to get hold of : CATCH
- nob·bler /-b(&-)l&r/ noun

Main Entry: 1 wit
Pronunciation: 'wit
Function: verb
Inflected Form(s): wist /'wist/; wit·ting present first & third singular wot /'wät/
Etymology: Middle English witen (1st & 3d sing. present wot, past wiste), from Old English witan (1st & 3d singular present wAt, past wisse, wiste); akin to Old High German wizzan to know, Latin vidEre to see, Greek eidenai to know, idein to see
1 archaic : KNOW
2 archaic : to come to know : LEARN

Ergo : Nobble + Wit = "to win over to one's side" + "to know" OR "to swindle" + "to know"
Um. the second one doesn't seem very nice:(
I'll go woth the first one :7
So I know how to win people over to my side, I guess:P
