GM-Bonomi has said he will add some names for us to the list that players are drafted from. Doesn't mean that you will see one but there is a chance. Seriously here are a few I will submit based on some people's names that I know from Buzzerbeater that seem realistic enough.

I hope no-one objecte to any of these because they will go into the actual database. I obviously am just one player with no special right to create this list so if anyone objects to any names please let me know but surely they are no worse than some of the current crop like Squid and Fatty Dick.
I am just bumping/necroing this thread for two reasons. Firstly I was wondering if anyone has seen a drafted Llama, Koop, Fanny or especially a Yoda? I saw a Niko in the II.1 draft. Secondly I was wondering if we wanted to do this again. I am assuming GM-Koopasaurus can do this if there is interest. Do we want to add Mickyster, Ott, Latino, Kilrtom, Razor or any other honorific names to the list?
Lewisham Wombats drafted Allen Ray (not Ray Allen sadly) and I think it is cool to get those occasional guys with cool names in the league. Better than Aussie basketballers named Akhandala Shrivastava and Ernst-Gerald Hirl.
