Double Meanings in Character Names

I was wondering if a lot of people try to make their character names have double meanings by changing the spelling of a common word or phrase, but keeping the phonetics somewhat close...

Here's an example...
Donatella Novoti = Don't Tell Nobody

Any of you care to throw out one of yours?

I've seen of these boards (in a "silly name" thread), someone mentionning Hazzint bin Layyd, an adventurer desperately trying to get promiscuous with young women. And of course, all the pseudo-Asian names like Wong Wey. There was a lot of pseudo-Chinese joke names. In French, it's easier with pseudo-Japanese (Yamamoto Kaderape: my motorcycle skidded; Futele Okasho: throw them in jail).
 


Hakyn Slash the Orc Barbarian

Hewint Datterway the gnome thief

Mik Elmyers the geekboy and serial killer (great NPC he was too)
 

i play a sorcerer named kuhlun (cullin') and when he got a kangaroo rat familiar my wife suggested i name him dugang, so it became (cool 'n da gang) :p

(is thta too much wordplay and not enuf double meaning?)
