Worst Character Name

I'm sure there are worse names out there, but right now, I'm thinking this is the stupidest one I've ever heard of:
A-Bomb. Short for Abomination. Get it? So very clever

. Apparently Emil Blonsky, the original Abomination, is dead. Now Rick Jones, eternal sidekick, has his power. So, if the Hulk dies, will Marvel get an H-Bomb to replace him? And yes, that's a red Hulk you're seeing. And no, it's not Bruce Banner. Please, don't get me started.......

A-Bomb. Well I guess it could be worse. I can't think of anything right now but surely there are dumber names than that.

Based on the news I heard about Marvel, they should have a "Goofy" pretty soon.

DOORMAN. For anyone who hasn't seen this character, his special ability is class 10-teleportation which means he can transport anyone, anywhere, as long as it's into the next room -

am I missing something here!

Fun topic! I have no names to contribute, since I've read very few comic books (compared to you guys).
Sarge, that D-Man guy's uniform looks an awful lot like Wolverine's to my inexpert eyes.
Maybe Wolverine should check his closet to make sure nothing's missing.
And hey, a red Hulk! Awesome, in a sinister kind of way.
What? That's not Bruce Banner? What do you mean?
(No, wait, dAN, it's okay, you don't have to get up...)

It should be said, to be fair, that Doorman is one of the GLA, a Marvel group of superheroes with bizarre and almost useless powers who are intended for comic relief most of the time...
Oh, yes, I have another "good" name... courtesy of a website specifically devoted to silly ideas in comic books.
I give you...
Arm-Fall-Off-Boy!

It's a cross between Wolvie's and the original Daredevil costume. What I want to know is how the dude makes his beard disappear when he puts it on.....

I knew there was something not quite right about that character. I stand corrected.
I would love a stack of these comics!!!

Superman? That doesn't seem like a name I'd choose if I shot webs and had a big spider on my costume........

Old Doc Ock never did have the best eyesight, and I'm sure those Roy Orbison shades weren't much of a help.

His sight improved when he changed his prescription to Elton John glasses.

I'm not whining about Cagliostro. Until I went looking for the pic of who I wanted to whine about, I didnt even notice Marvel had changed the name. And that's funny, because I have this comic. Anyway, the name the character goes by in the comic (and the issues prior) in Sise-Neg. 'But wait,' you say, 'isn't that Genesis spelled backwards?' Why, yes it is. 'And they just threw in the hyphen so you wouldn't notice?' Yes, I believe that's so. 'But, that's stupid!'
Bingo.
