Fictive Naming at it's Very Best

Rating: List Type:
APOLLO CREED



Legendary Character from a LEGENDARY Film. I can't think of a more diametric character to any hero ever! All the while remaining likeable!

Heracles's rating:
COLONEL KILGORE




" You can either surf, or you can fight! "

"You smell that? Do you smell that? Napalm, son. Nothing else in the world smells like that. I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for twelve hours. When it was all over I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' dink body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end.."

I don't think I need to add to that!
Heracles's rating:
LINCOLN HAWK



What can I say; The whole point of this character was that he could arm wrestle. Before breaking rivals arms with pure strength he dazzled them with his name!
Heracles's rating:
LT. VAN ZAN



I HATE HATE HATE HATE McCONAUGHEY But Denton Van Zan is so legendary he can't be ruled out.

Sure he sacrifices himself needlessly but who gives a shit. The final leap is historic!
Heracles's rating:
DOZER



Despite being written out of the next two matrices, I still yearn for the nickname of DOZER!!!!
Heracles's rating:
Average listal rating (21 ratings) 6.4 IMDB Rating 0
BOVVA



Green Street's BOVVA is a complete legendary name in this film. Loathing, Hate, Thugishness, Trouble and Awkwardness summed up in his name!
Heracles's rating:
Average listal rating (2404 ratings) 7.3 IMDB Rating 0
JOHNNY UTAH



I don't think you have a soul if you don't appreciate Point Break in some way. This was Keanu before he was sulky and depressed. Great casting and a great name!
Heracles's rating:
BOMB VOYAGE



Classic, the combination of Bon Voyage and a Bomber! WHO KNEW!
Heracles's rating:
BENNY BLANCO 'from da Bronx'



I love this film, I hate this character, I love this name!
Heracles's rating:
Average listal rating (1490 ratings) 8.1 IMDB Rating 0
KEYSER SOZE

In a recent stint of movie watching mania it occurred to me that there have been some purely inspirational character names, here is a list of ten of my favourite sobriquets, ranks & birth rites the silver screen has slipped into our subconsciousness.
