    One of the best parts about running Apocalypse World is that the gag of looking around the room and naming a character after something you see is perfectly in keeping with the setting.

        I keep a pregenerated list of on-theme names and just cross them off as they get used. It's the perfect crime.

                Our sessions usually go:

                NPC: "I am known as Nebulox".

                PC: "... I'm gonna call you 'Ned'"

                DM: "WELL I GUESS ITS NED NOW"

                  I grab relevant Japanese and butcher it until it sounds vaguely fantasy-Western. Never fails.

                    Sir Mordak: "Sir Gardakan, I am growing tired of waiting for our new party member's arrival."

                    Sir Gardakan: "I agree, Sir Mordak. But he could be useful as my squire!"

                    Boba Fett: "Hey guys! Wait for me!"

                          https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/fake-asiana-pilot-names

                          While reporting on the crash during their noon newscast on July 12th, Bay Area Fox affiliate KTVU co-anchor Tori Campbell reported that the names of the pilots on board were "Sum Ting Wong," "Wi Tu Lo," "Ho Lee Fuk" and "Bang Ding Ow."

                          On the evening of July 12th, the NTSB issued an apology via press release noting that a summer intern had acted on his own authority by confirming the fake names, and asserted that appropriate action would be taken to assure a similar error would not happen again.

                          As far as I know, the identity of the intern remains undisclosed.

                            Oh wow yeah this is awesome:

                            https://donjon.bin.sh/fantasy/my_campaign/

                            It's a random campaign generator. You could run a whole one-shot off that, or populate any region in your world at will

                                          All well and good in theory, but after bribing a barmaid called "Anon" for a lead, my group have now been directed to talk to a halfling in the corner of the tavern by the name of "Hamas".
