19th Century Baltimore Orioles Nickname Generator →

Dayn Perry of NotGraphs has created the greatest nickname generator of all-time, in the process shaming the porn star and Jersey Shore generators. As Perry describes it:

“As you are no doubt aware, the Orioles of that vintage were a tough bunch of men. They drank all the liquor in America, they went decades without sleeping, they brawled against Norse gods, and they saw all of their children killed gruesomely by primitive farming equipment. All of these things are facts.”

It is only fair and right for there to be an internet device to help give us nicknames. Mine is “The Promise of Famine,” which I quite like. Maybe I’ll add it to my resume.
