I don't really remember terrible names, and I don't like to mock people for things they didn't get to choose for themselves. However, one of the best names I've ever come across was a kid called Max Godbolt.

This just made me do a quick search and now I have learned that the Godbolt compiler explorer isn't just some cool name, but actually the last name of the guy who made it (Matt Godbolt)
