I enjoy the pictures of random athletes thread, but I feel like a separate thread for awesome sports related names would be of use. There are some classics out there but to start I would like to present to you from the WNBA someone named Aerial Powers. Isn't that just an awesome name?

Great thread. Will shout it out in the other one since it took people some time to find the guys thread. +1 on Dick Butkus. A big old mean football guy named Dick Butt Kiss has made me laugh every time I've thought about it since I found out about it at like 8 or 9 watching ESPN Classic. Still great. For some hockey guys, you got: Zarley Zalapski Håkan Loob (along the lines of Dick Butt Kiss, in my head it's Hock A Loog. as in loogie) Per Djoos (Pear Juice) Miroslav Šatan (got a kick out of having his jersey growing up in the south) Ron Tugnutt (immortalized in Ginette Reno's avatar) NFL players to me are judged on how nice and crisp they sound when I picture Pat Summerall saying it. I don't know if he ever said these names, but in my head I can perfectly hear him saying: Lardarius Webb Brandon........Manamaleuna and so on.

Some names are musical. They're not weird names, but musical ones. They have a rhythm. My top two for that are: - Delino DeShields - Edgar Renteria Standard, weird names: - Decoldest Crawford. As a Nebraska player, his NIL deal was with an air conditioning company. - Urban Shocker - D'Brickashaw Ferguson
