Breakfast Topic: Most over-used guild name

Sure, plenty of these names sounded clever and funny, or perhaps serious and dignified the first time you heard them. But now there are dozens or even hundreds of them across the realms, and variations on the same theme within your own realm. Knights of the Alliance, Heroes of the Alliance, Army of the Alliance, Defenders of the Alliance... really, who thought these were all a good idea? This post on the forums tries to make a list -- but I wonder about yours. So, do you have any least favorite guild names -- names seen so many times that they've become old, tired, and, well, over-used.Filed under: Guilds, Breakfast Topics

Anything that contains 'twink'.

Anything containing Ding or Woot

I disagree, Pasta, the guildnames with twink in them actually serve a purpose. Because most of them are twink guilds.
I say anything with "Shadow" in it.

i've seen a bunch of "knight who say ni" and "army of darkness" guilds

I say anything that starts with "Brother" or "Brotherhood".

Anything that uses the word "of".
Any name with "Knights", "Light" or "Dark". Usually used in conjunction with "of".
Most names with all caps. The exception being "LOOT THE CORE HOUND", which was actually very very funny back in the day.
A few I have seen that I thought were especially good guild names were:
(you have to picture that tag above someones head, and name)
Many guild names sound quite noble, or destructive. Then you find out that the actual guild is... well, pathetic. So, here are a few guild names that would be honest and accurate, but we will probably never see.
Never happen, but sure would be true for some.
How many guilds does this describe?
Yup, there are a few guilds around made up of these.
Yup, these folks too.

Anything that WAS original that got posted on the forums and then snatched up by the hundreds of kiddies and have now become horrible because of it.

Fluffy Little Kitties
And Two Stealthed Rogues

Ok for me one of my favorites is Walmart Warriors on Archimonde.
Always a great PUG with them.
