John Goodgnome: a gnome investigater disguised as a goblin travelling with our goblin group for the purposes of anthropological research. Like a male, gnomish version of Jane Goodall with goblins instead of gorillas. Props to Zanthrax for a great character in that one.

Of course, if you really want legit unintentionally bad names, look at George Lucas: General Grievous? Really? Sauvage Oppress? Do you remember the Jessica Jones villain? Killgrave? In the 2nd season, she'll be up against Reilly Badguy.
For StarWars, it is hard to beat the original: OB-1 KNOB.

I've yet to play this character, but the genesis of the idea is from a pun. I'm using my Vanara boon in PFS to create a Mindblade Magus named "Gabriel Peters," who specializes in shocking grasp and will eventually have a familiar, "Shock" the Monkey. He, of course, summons up and wields a sledgehammer (Earthbreaker). Sometimes he casts enlarge person to go "Big Time." Eventually he may pick up firefall to make some "Red Rain." I'm sure the puns will multiply once I'm actively playing the character.

How are you getting away with saying oh I see now clever.
I have an overly talkative Catfolk Samurai who goes by the name of Silence.... who wields a thunderous katana and a belt of thunderous charging.

Oooh! We got something similar going here.
I have a character call Sister Silence. She wields a musket and is a gunslinger warpriest that stills the noise of evil.
I feel like all my characters are overly talkative.

It's too late at night for me to mine a new idea for this right now, so I'm just going to have to do the environmentally responsible thing to come up with an idea:
A truly horrific villain . . .
The Arch-Conservative candidate for the next Prime Minister of Andoren . . .
A Demagogue Bard who is also secretly a Dread Vampire Failed Apotheosis Mimic who managed to escape the trauma and other disadvantages of apotheosis failure by failing the apotheosis on purpose. Now, he can shamelessly morph to mimic any political position, while taking money (in addition to being able to tap into his own considerable fortune) from shadowy behind-the-scenes Arch-Conservative activists such as the unbelievably rich Kreed Brothers, who seek nothing less than World Domination Through Political Action . . .
Your only hope of preventing him from seizing power is to figure out how to use his only remaining stumbling block: Like so many others of his political alignment, he was born with a silver foot in his mouth . . . .
When you are tired of voting for the lesser of two evils:
* * * * * * * * Vote for for Prime Minister * * * * * * * *
Voting? What an archaic concept.
Perhaps you heard of the druidical character that took over Sczarni faction. Being able to shape change one's physical body is after all almost as useful as being able to lie with a straight face.
Certainly, a few people opposed her. To say that there was a trail of bodies a mile long was only a slight exaggeration. And so it was that the murderous group of cuthroats and conmen, liars, thieves and murderers know as the Sczarni came to be headed by a druid.
Celery Clinton. When you're tired of *voting* for the lesser of two evils.
AKA: Why don't we keep politics out of our fantasy.
I just thought of a new one:
A Monk named MAX.
And you know what kind of class Monk is . . . .
This one isn't mine, but I have to point you to the discussion thread for this guide which is just sprouting but has a title that fits perfectly in this thread.
Brotor Mountainaxe, a somewhat... inbred dwarf. He had a very thick skull, filling a large part of the brainpan with bone. The mountainaxe clan usually greeted people using brutal headbutts. When going into the Crater ridge mines, his policy was to attract as many monsters as possible by banging his shield with his axe and shouting for monsters.

I've been tempted to create a summoning themed character that refluffs the spell casting as an elaborate card game, that has a fancy arm cardholder, where he starts every battle by yelling, "It's time to duel!".
I remember in 3.5, my friends and I sometimes joked about a morbidly obese rogue with a really high dex score, since weight doesn't effect the character in any real way RAW.
