Great names from Pulp Fiction:

Honey Bunny

Zed
Captain Koons

Lots of great names but those are the best to me.

***** Galore - Ian Fleming's Goldfinger (The first name is censored by the C-D software, but it is slang for a cat.)

Harkabeeparolyn and Kawaresksenjajok from Larry Niven's Ringworld (or maybe it was Ringworld Engeeneers)
