Stathis Borans, from David Cronenberg's version of The Fly.

Cronenberg could fill this thread single-handed: Adrian Tripod, Rillo Linsky, Arno Crostic, Barrry Convex, Brian O'Blivion, Allegra Geller...

Duran Duran



Has that ruined the movie nowdays? Seems it would turn it into something like a Big Train sketch.

Because it's such a serious film otherwise.

Not a character but the director of the new Tomb Raider film is the awesomely named Roar Uthaug

Hobo With A Shit Pun


The main character in Left Behind: A Novel of the Earth's Last Days (not counting Jesus) is "Rayford Steele".

Claude the Racecar Driving Rockstar Super Sleuth is a pretty silly name took me right out the film

I'm "Based on a true story."

Actually, I was partially inspired by the even more ridiculously named Buckaroo Banzai.


Elderly Sumo Prophecy

I was about to say Freddy Moonlight from Reservoir Dogs, but then I looked it up and apparently it's actually Newandyke. Doesn't sound like that the way Tim Roth pronounces it.

Psmith

Not ridiculous but a bit confusing.
There's a female character in The Maltese Falcon called Iva (yes, it's pronounced like Ivor)

Dr Christmas Jones


They only called her that for the "I thought Christmas only comes once a year" joke
