My current leader just died and the one that took over is called: Emperor Eusebius the fat. I look forward to great things from him. :hanged:

Wow, how awesome is that. :beam:
The last pope in my scottish game was called Eusebius the corrupt!
They could have gone with my scottish cardinal instead, but nooo :furious3:
I got Captain Kirk last night!
And guess what - he valiantly wiped out a Danish army and become MOTH! unfortunatley turned out Kirk was his first name So he's Kirk McSomething (fair enough, as kirk is scottish for Church) but I have to say sending Captain Kirk into Battle was pretty awesome!

The English typically early on get a merchant named Rodney Dangerfyeld but he doesn't get much respect........

Why have the English faction leaders often stupid names? I have had kings with the following names: Jasper, Jozias, Toby (a hobbit) and of course Ralph
King Ralph???
Why not Henry (one to eighth), Charles, Richard, Eward, Edmund or whatever.
No all I get is King Ralph:furious3: :wall:
Did he speak with an American accent? ;)

Nope.
And he also didn't play the piano.
He was a very good king though who reigned for some 30 years and conquered Central Europe.
The funniest title I have ever seen was a Venetian faction leader by the name of "Pantaleone the Ugly". He had one of the funniest traits, disfigured, which next to "often humiliates peasants simply out of spite." had the funniest description. I once had a family member by the name of "Harold the Mean".

Poor Rodney Dangerfield never gets any respect. :no:

I try to build up dread so that one of my generals gets "the Tyrant"

My King always ends being called the Malevolent or the Tyrant...
Lastly, my King is Laszlo the Killer... (with something around 7-8 Dread) and my Heir is Kalman the Champion (with not less than 14 Chivalry...) ... It should give some interesting family dinners....
I've seen some funny names around but it was mainly the Byzantine that got them... They have a thing for them...

Guido the Mean.... 15 Chivalry, and no Dread points at all, and yet he's still considered a mean person.......in fact the only slightly negative trait he has is Miserly, but he wasn't Mean back when he first got it :laugh4:
King Alfonso the Chivalrous

If you leave a princess unmarried for too long, She can become a "Man-Hunter." that cracked me up.
Even after she gets married, she's still "Elizabeth the Man-Hunter." Hilarious.

My (HRE) best army commander right now is Prince Hans the Cuckold. It is said that his wife's lovers openly laugh in his face. It is also said that he couldn't care less, as his favorite "mistress" needs to shave every morning...

I got Simon the Saint as Sicily and John the Mad as the Byzantines. Would be really cool to get a Danish king kalled Hardeknut the Berserker but most of the time, since I´m such a decent guy, I get stuck with the chivalrous and honourable ones.
As Milan I have a princess called Diana Rossi, and maybe its no coincidence that my power is listed in diplomacy as "Supreme".
