MorganTyre Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Here's a little tavern name 'generator' I came up with a year or so ago for laughs. I just came across it and thought you might enjoy. Just pick one word from each of the two columns. Note, I apologize in advance if the spacing doesn't work out right. Salty Mermaid Running Cutlass Scurvy Dog White Cannonball Infamous Wench Ugly Maiden Raving Sea-horse Drunken Spaniard Blue Devil Wandering Schooner Loose Sea-monkey Roving Plank Splintered Mug Steaming Rum Red Iguana Rusty Sailor Black Buccaneer Dented Horse Listing Knight Fallen Nobleman Scarlet Whale Broken Clam Tarnished Crab Dashed Dutchman Fighting Monkey Dead Arm Bilge Rat Sweaty Parrot Crying Spot Frozen Oar Shrunken Ring Brass Captain Iron Head Golden Corsair Dying Mosquito Crashing Pygmy Victorious Cannibal Crusty Swab Saucy Drunkard Lazy Mary Savage Squid
Red Bess Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 That's pretty good! I just moved the first column down 1 space and came up with 2 favorites: The Loose Plank and The Steaming Iguana! Oh, and I thought The Raving Spaniard was a good one, too. Ladies in Scarlet: Piratical Art and Accessories
Rumba Rue Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Gee with my twisted mind I came up with, Tarnished Mary and Cannibal Mosquito. I could go on for quite some time with this, like Savage Pygmy, Squid Rum, or for that group, Iron Maiden! Thanks, this gets a good laugh from me!
CaptainJackRussell Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Well, 'guess thats also crazy names fae new vessels:))) Our tavern is the "Cutthroad Inn" Fair winds, Jack
The Doctor Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 "The Rusty Wench" and "The Lusty Monkey" are two possibilities! Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
William Brand Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 We have a tavern on the property with an old wood burning stove and a 16 foot table. Despite many attempts to name it, everyone still just calls it "The Tavern". Â Â Â

Barber-surgeon Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 To tack on an interesting bit to the conversation, mayhap consider some of the suggested names fer taverns...and then come up with a sign that depicts the name without using words. (As it were done in the days when all but the nobs were illiterate...) Cheers "Don't worry, it's not My Blood!"
LadyBarbossa Posted March 26, 2006 Posted March 26, 2006 Welp... Haven't really thought of tavern names much. I used a tavern in a role playing story a couple years ago - Journey's End. Tempt Fate! an' toss 't all t' Hell!" "I'm completely innocent of whatever crime I've committed." The one, the only,... the infamous!
Sealegs Constance Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 This name seems to be sticking my mind. "Lost Souls Tavern" Sealegs Constance I am what I am

Cheers i can see it inmy head (almost a self-portrait?) but have to get it down on paper and then figure out how to get it on the boards. ~snow with faith, trust and pixiedust, everything is possible if it be tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

May yer Life be a long and joyous adventure in gettin there!As he was about to face the gallows there, the pirate is said to have tossed a sheaf of papers into the crowd, taunting his audience with these final words: "My treasure to he who can understand."
Arthur Richards from Kent Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 the sea chest, the cutlass, the flintlock, swivel gun, the mizzen mast, the keelhaul bar and grill, here's a nostalgic name hows about the best one this pubs ever had "The Tsunami Kate" and I gots more but I think the hairy ball saloon might work in certain parts a town, while its sister bar the widow whore might make its name in nevada somewhere? Ows abouts the thirsty crew? or the scurvey lot? ok im done Touch somebody you don't know today with a smile.
callenish gunner Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 three that i'm quite familiar with are the BLUE PELICAN and the 3 GULLS & SNUG HARBOUR the SEAWITCH i always thought would be a good one or the COMPASS ROSE
William Brand Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 ...here's a nostalgic name hows about the best one this pubs ever had "The Tsunami Kate"... Well, thank you, Kent. Just for that I'm opening up a second tab for you at the pub. Â Â Â
Pew Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 We have a place 'round 'ere just known by it's address: 39 Main. My favorite place: Outer Banks Brewing Station and The Weeping Radish. My own place: The White Cap , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
The Doctor Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 My favorite places here in the Twin Cities are "The Local", "The Claddagh", "Stub and Herbs" (a.k.a. "Sterbs"), and "The Blue Fox". Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?
Silkie McDonough Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 "Outer Banks Brewing Station and The Weeping Radish." Been there! Wonderful place! I can't remember much except that it was excelent and we had to go back the next day for dessert!
Captain Annie Finlay Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 hmm...personally, I'd have ta say that me favorite tavern would be the White Hart (those who frequent MDRF know exactly what I'm talking about :) ), but if I had to come up with me own name...well...I think that 'Raving Devil' sounds about right. The Wit and Wisdom of Capt. Jack Sparrow: The deepest circle of hell is reserved for betrayers and mutineers. Wherever we want to go, we go. That's what a ship is, you know. It's not just a keel and hull and a deck and sails. That's what a ship needs. But what a ship is... what the Black Pearl really is... is freedom. Me? I'm dishonest, and a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest. Honestly. It's the honest ones you want to watch out for, because you can never predict when they're going to do something incredibly... stupid. The only rules that really matter are these: what a man can do and what a man can't do. Will Turner: You cheated. Jack Sparrow: [shrugs] Pirate.
Pew Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 hmm...personally, I'd have ta say that me favorite tavern would be the White Hart (those who frequent MDRF know exactly what I'm talking about :) ), Aye, 'tis me own backyard. . . Nothing like a couple of MackesonsXXX, and some shanties come late summer . .But you'd be remiss as to not mention the Boar's Head Tavern, and O'Shucks Pub for some Oyster shooters . . . , Skull and Quill Society , The Watch Dog "We are 21st Century people who play a game of dress-up and who spend a lot of time pissing and moaning about the rules of the game and whether other people are playing fair."
Capt. Lazarus Gage Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Cock and Bull in Covington, Ky. Just over the river from Cincinnati. Besides having one of the largest draft selections in the midwest (My favorite being the Strongbow Draft Hard Cider), they make great food, including a very good shrimp bisque with sherry drizzled on top .
Asukaru Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 The Tartan Room in Orange, CA when I can go - which sadly isn't very often... Confessions of a Wicked Wench ~ Myspace! ~ Handlebars @ DeviantArt
Silkie McDonough Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Gage, Strongbow Draft Hard Cider is my favorite also. Has been for nearly 15 years. At least I am able to find it here in the states now! My tavern The Banshee or The Banshee's Hold
