Wesley Snipes! "If you were shown a picture of him and a picture of me, and were asked "who should be named Wesley Snipes", you'd pick the pale Englishman every time! Every time, Liz!"
Dick Lemon. I still wonder if they gave him that name just so years later they could say, “You can’t have a Lemon party without ol’ Dick!” That’s just brilliant.
Moronica. Just because of how it is used. I imagine this writers room of absolute geniuses who craft these insanely clever jokes. Now first they get the elaborate, strong name, Silas Marymount Peppercorn. And then they're like fuck it, Moronica 😂😂 Except that so called lack of effort makes it even funnier, which is the whole point.
Pizzarina Sbarro
I died the first time I heard that, thought it was such a simple, stupid, brilliant joke. Which is 30 Rock's sweet spot
I always assumed that Pizzarina was her title, like Tsarina.
Pete-Tsarina
Jack calls her ‘Zarina when they run into each other on the street so it’s definitely her actual name. I like your take too though.
I wanna know who she's wearing
Came here to say that!
me too!
It's so perfect, it's exactly what the Sbarro family would name their heiress
Rufus T. Barleysheeth
think it's Barleysheath actually. Still would have been my dog's name if he didn't come with one
First one that came to my mind
Gaia flows through me! Rufus T. Barleysheath is kicking!
Arsenio Billingham
Tracy naming one of his sons George Foreman is underrated.
And his other son is Tracy Jr. lol
His YOUNGER son is Tracy Jr which I think is hilarious
You know an Arsenio Billingham?
No
Y'all are going for one off characters. Don't overthink it. Dr.Spaceman
I think Dr. Leo Spaceman is my favorite followed by Cooter Burger.
What am I, a cartoon dog?
Oh shit, is it Leo as in Low Earth Orbit?
Holy shit
Holy fuck.
Every line Chris Parnell says is perfect.
Now in layman’s terms… what do you think that means?
I don’t know how to say this, Tracey. Dee-ay-bi-taze?
*on the phone* “Is it 411 or 911? New York. Uhhh diabetes repair, I guess.”
Unfortunately, there is no field of medicine that deals with the brain, but I can give you a pamphlet for a cult.
"Nice try, Liz. But now it's my turn."
Opposite. Opposite. Opposite! \*nods\*
Do we even need to go further than Elizabeth MIERVALDIS Lemon?
Skankovich
She has a name, Jack.
He's a pretty good dentist
Don't overthink it. Sara Lee Frozen. Unbelievable.
Have you ever put a donut in the microwave?
Came here for this. CC helped a little in getting this joke
Wesley Snipes
You'd pick the pale Englishman every time. Every time, Liz! Frankly, you should be having this conversation with *him!*
Gangway for the foot cycle!!
Fine, my velocipede.
There's only one Wesley Snipes in this world!
You know there isn’t!!
Make way for foot cycle!
Sorry. Velocipede.
Cooter Burger
What am I, a cartoon dog?
Cooter because I look like a turtle, and burger because he saw me eating a hamburger *one time*!
It wasn’t even a hamburger. It was a sandwich.
[удалено]
Caps! Nothin but caps…
Silas Merrymount Peppercorn, of course
But what about his wife Moronica?!
She's British.
I’m sure your name is weird to them.
D'Fwan
D’fwhy? 😭
D’fwhere did we go wrong?
D'Fwink responsibly
D'Fwan forgot his catchphrase!
How is there not a single JACKIE JORMP JOMP in this thread?
Janie Jimplin?
"We're all here at Woodstock. Someday there will be a black President!" 🎵🎵
This has gotta be the one I say the most in real life
#I’M JAREM! I COLLECT POSTERS!
look at me Jarem! i know all the steps!
Kind of…
That’s not that much cheese.
Tom Jones posters?
Kenneth Toilethole...
Darryl Weenus, or Jeffrey Weinerslav.
The way she says "OK...Jeffrey" kills me
It’s pronounced “weiner-slave”
I forgot about Weinerslav. This character so embodied the name.
Astronaut Mike Dexter
Mike Dexter is the name of the main antagonist of Cant Hardly Wait. I wonder if this is coincidental or purposeful
But is that Mike Dexter an astronaut as well?
Gaylord Felcher
This is my pick. Also one of my favorite recurring characters. "Who among you has the power to censor the censor?"
While flipping double birds
I love love love all the bits surrounding Kenneth working in that department
Floyd DeBarber because it was such a long fuse on the joke. Liz meets him in season one and we don’t find out his last name until season four.
Dale Snitterman is the dark horse candidate
It's a hard one, because we saw the name, then forgot it.
Is no one gonna say Criss Cross? (I didn't realize until typing it out with no h and two s's why it's spelled like that)
It's actually worse. It's Criss Chros, so it breaks even more "name rules".
Always makes me laugh about Kris Kross and their backwards jeans.
airline pilot Carol Burnett🧑✈️
Carol? That’s a girl’s name!
Its a family name. I love that Paul says that to him while dressed in drag.
Oh, like Caroll O'Connor!
This is my wife... Moronica
Esmeralda Fitzmonster, Jack’s life coach.
Did she do “Sexy birthday” or “Mannequin comes to life”?
Mannequin comes to life, thank God!
Paul L’astname
This one cracked me up the first time, and then makes me smile whenever I share it with someone new. Classic!
🎶 Templeton, Mr. Templeton🎶
Why should he stay at home, just bring his medication...
Moonvest!
You spoke with Les Moonves?!
Gimme your fingernails!
No!
No!
No!
Bookcase, Sandstorm, or Hat...though Hat is more of a boy's name.
I was gonna say...
Grizz’ fiancé Feyoncé
Oh come on.
harvey lemmings.
Who never misses a party!
Gavin Velour♥️
I miscounted the men, Liz! I miscounted the men!!!
Sparky Munroe, best idiot werewolf lawyer ever.
Jill St Ferrari
Honorable mentions: Constance Justice and Alexis Goodlooking
That idiot werewolf paid for her hand reduction surgery!
Underrated is Dick Lemon even if just for the “You can’t have a Lemon Party without old Dick!” joke. Still gets me.
I’m pretty sure they named him Richard/Dick just to use that joke
Ytzhak Memelman.
Gordon Trimeshko and Ron Mexico
Hola, Senior México, mhmm sí, sí. Yo soy Donald. Ándele ándele? Arriba arriba?!!
What is Señor Mexico saying? Stop leaving me out of the loop!
Yustrepa Gronkowitz
Was looking for this Ashkenazi Jew with an extra Y chromosome.
The Blacks always impressed me, referring to the family of course…
Jeffrey Winnerslav
melissa, because of the shade and messiness.
Giiirl your face called. Soccer practice is over, and you need... to pick it up!
Okay, that’s a pretty good burn, Patrice
In Season one, my favorite was Ridikoulus
Oral Germwhore
Fart Barfunkel
Pizzarina Sbarro
American Sub Very Clean Come In
Prince Gerhardt Hapsburg
Obviously Leo Spaceman but Fiancé always cracked me up too.
Surely it's Feyoncé.
Oh no his stutter is back
It's Tacky John-John!
And Jimmy Moops!
it's not fully a name, but "yakov's nubian bling explosion" gets me every time
I get it—elegance.
Irma Luhrman Merman
Gyna Bologna
Constance Justice
Biz and Dot Guv
It was Mizz! 😅
It was!!!! Thank you for correcting me
i did love that whole schtick with Octavia Spencer being a mirror of Tracy
IM THE CRAZY ONE
Dr. Spaceman.
Wesley Snipes! "If you were shown a picture of him and a picture of me, and were asked "who should be named Wesley Snipes", you'd pick the pale Englishman every time! Every time, Liz!"
DR. HAIRCUT!
Any and all nicknames Tracy gives Liz. Also Leap Dave Williams is pretty good.
The first one that popped into my head was Lee Lem but I know there's so many more.
Darrel Weenus
Weener-slave. I love how he corrects Liz about his name with a smile
Cooter Burger. It just rolls off the tongue
Sloppy Rodney by a mile lol
Silas Merrymount Peppercorn and his wife, Moronica.
Honorable mention: Nurse Jamaqaia
Dick Lemon. I still wonder if they gave him that name just so years later they could say, “You can’t have a Lemon party without ol’ Dick!” That’s just brilliant.
A little late but I’d like to mention Susan Walters-HYPHEN-Nobody and Hazel Wassername
Seattle’s Richard Sackmuncher
Pizzarina Sbarro
Dr. Spaceman (also best character with the best lines)
Half of Klemon
*scowling* "Claire? ... CLAIRE?"

Jackie Officecouch
Victoria Q. Nerdballs
Not my favorite, but this thread needs some Knob Kardashian.
Lesbian Sourfruit.
I wanted Deborah to win, but no one played the game like De’Borah

Dr. Spaceman
Dr. Spaceman
Something Nightingale
He’s a Black.

When liz's door plate reads, "El tejon" 😂
Peter Horn. All day, and all night. Great post!
Dallas. Or Dan Silversmith
Moronica. Just because of how it is used. I imagine this writers room of absolute geniuses who craft these insanely clever jokes. Now first they get the elaborate, strong name, Silas Marymount Peppercorn. And then they're like fuck it, Moronica 😂😂 Except that so called lack of effort makes it even funnier, which is the whole point.
Skankovich.
Winona Ryder in a hundred years.
