The name that gets to me the most is without a doubt, Archetype Schmarchetype.
first of all, it is a pretty funny dad joke, which is fitting considering the user who made this name is father to two players on this sim league. In fact, I can imagine the conversation that put this name into existance. "Dad, come play this game we're playing". "Ok, what do i do". "You gotta make a football player". "Oh ok, what should I name him". "Dad, you gotta pick an archetype first". "Oh, Archetype Schmarchetype.....wait, thats it!". And then he probably laughed about how clever he was after that.
But then I have some fundamental problems with it. First of all, I am the GM that drafted this guy. Do you know how tiring it gets referring to his players name? Oh man, it sucks so much.
On top of that, his name just gets to me pronounciation wise. Like, its just not right. I'm assuming it should be said like shmar-kuh-taip, but a sh sound makes it easy. wouldn't a sch make a scuh sound, thus making this name scuh-mar-kuh-tiep? And i know it should just be the same pronounciation as archetype but with shm in front of it, but with that m in front i can never stop me from pronouncing it like March. it just bothers me.
