With that Botcon reveal of Gigatron/Overlord I thought to myself: 'Gee, having Overlord as a first name sucks.' I mean, having your name correspond with your job is one thing... But overstating it as you go? This guy never was Decepticon overlord, there was always one guy higher up. And if you're familiar with the Masterforce cartoon, Japanese cartoons in general, you know they pronounce his name like Overlordo, which sounds like a breakfast cereal. A mass-murdering breakast cereal.

Overlord, IMO, makes a quick bid for having the worst name. And before you think about giving that title to Erector, consider the fact that he actually does erect something and therefore has a usefull name. He's not the only guy that could erect building materials, but at least his name implies that he does what he actually does.

EGAWHDS WHAT IS THAT.

Blame Counterpunch, he brought it into my world. =3

It's got to be Windbreaker. Or is that the best name? My don't know...

Gotz ta be "Junk Heap". Like a bad horror-porn hybrid. Posting with insomnia again, sorry.

i always though kup was a awful name. it was only 3 letters & it was a horrible way to abbreviate the word "pick up". kup sounded more like a drinking cup.

other worst names are a few of those beastwars names that added a "or" at the end of a real animal species. like CheetOR or WaspinatOR. TankOR was another horrible beastmachines name.

RhinOX made no sense. as he was a rhino. not a fuzor rhino+ox hybrid.

Heh, yeah. I forgot that one. Best ever and worst ever.

Bumblebee, I mean seriously he's named after a flying insect. The only thing they have in common is that they're both black and yellow.

Ratbat, the hell is that supposed to be? I mean he's not a fusion between a rat and a bat.
