This is a weird one, but might be interesting. Find some epic names in history or some you have encountered over the course of your life (real people, no fictional characters), and post them here for fun.
I have two ancient Roman names that I've always thought were amazing:
Emperor Maximinus Thrax
and
Blossius Aemilius Dracontius, a poet who lived during the fall of the western empire.

Pablo Escobar is an awesome name, IMO.
Brian Blessed fits the character in an appropriate way I think.

Good calls on Genghis Khan and Napoleon Bonaparte!
It's a pity only real ones are allowed, 'cos
Bergerac is a pretty satisfying name to say.
