I had a Chwalislaw Kryzwonos in OOTP 16 - game generated. American born. I called him "Chris."

This guy would be banned from modern MLB with his nickname.

I just had Drungo Hazewood the other day in my random debut historical.

River Heard

Afino · 03-18-2016, 08:11 PM

NO.....NO....NOOOOOO!

Oh, his name is Jonathan.

Neasag · 03-18-2016, 08:41 PM

Well, guess I'm going to post these guys again.

Fook Ou has reached the majors.

Behold, Angel Gabriel hath descended unto AA (verily I say unto you, he was a one-season wonder).

Created by OOTP 17, not me...

That poor guy...still, he's popular with the ladies.

Another Beavis & Butt-Head fodder special:

Hey, you'd probably be thin-skinned too, if your parents had given you that name!

Does this mean that "Justin Bieber" is technically a possibility within the OOTP17 naming algorithm?

ThatSeventiesGuy · 04-06-2016, 12:28 AM

Walter Fluck...were his parents thinking, giving him that name?

VARoadstter · 04-06-2016, 02:19 AM

I wish I had taken a screenshot of him when I saw it:

Tommy "Raging Bull" Schmidt

OOTP doesn't exclude any first/last combinations, so there could technically be a Justin Bieber.

On that note, there can be an Adolf Hittler (with a double T) but not an Adolf Hitler, because the single-T variant of that name is not in the name database.
