Have the npc panic and accuse them of being a fae, screaming and running away. If it happens in a populated area, guards show up and start asking questions. Hopefully the sheet inconvenience will deter them in the future.

That’s why I keep a name list and just cross them out as needed.
protip: don’t cross them off, write who they are on the list (eg “Rivermeadow blacksmith”) so you can remember when the players come back to them a million sessions later
the one group I was defacto DM for my players would do this knowing the more off guard they caught me the more likely somebody was likely to be called Chungus or Squinton or some shit
Falamshar the Kalashtar
Falashnikov the Kalashnikov.
I love how the party gravitated and dragged “Wheel Well” along, in Dimension 20: Skyward Ho.
DM Brennan is rarely caught off guard, but Maxwell’s younger brother being named “wheel well” felt like an improv moment.
The way the party made sure to drag “wheel well” with them as long as possible - forcing Brennan to keep saying “wheel well” - is just adorable.
Just pull a Slartibartfast and get really sad about how much your name sucks and then try to make the players feel bad about it.
His name is… Jizzmop Pintglass. Hey, you asked.
Homelander memes: helping the internet make fascists feel normal and relatable since 2024 or whenever.
Yes, the psychopathic baby eating lunatic definitely makes fascists feel normal and relatable…
No, it makes fence-sitters feel like there’s something to identify with in a baby eating lunatic and slowly shifts the Overton window further and further toward normalizing straight up evil.
Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight.
The boys creators: “make sure you make him really stupidly evil, so there’s no confusion about how evil he is”
Conservatives: “damn this guy’s kinda cool actually”
Because the internet has a thing for identifying with assholes. Look at Rick Sanchez or Dennis Renolds or Starship Troopers or Warhammer 40K or Helldivers. Take any character or group that’s explicitly coded as terrible in the source material, hand it to the Internet, and they’ll start making memes about it and eventually unironically decide that character is legitimately great actually. And the people spamming the shit everywhere will always act as though such a thing could never happen.
Meanwhile in the US…
Start using the persons asking’s real name and make them real goofy. This? This pants shitter Dave.
