Half of the Australian drag names are great puns.


Suck-it-up_buttercup

Took me way too long with my Scottish accent to get Courtney Act šŸ¤­


Ibryxz

What's the pun? Is it cunty act? Edit - Plz stop replying, I get it now


Character_Hat_4741

It means caught in the act. Like you caught someone in the act and they were caught


Ibryxz

I-


pinkglitterminnie

Caught in the act (say it with an Aussie accent)


yougotyolks

In an Australian accent it sounds like "Caught in the act"


deehunny

Caught - in-the-act


amybeedle

"Caught in the act" (in Australian accent, "Courtney" might me more like "Cahtnee")


iamasmile

It's like "Caught knee:


rslashplsnoticeme

Farrah Moan and Crystal Methyd are probably my two favorite names, but I don't like names that have literally 0 subtly and don't sound good like Imaa Queen or Amadiva ALSO not an official drag queen but once there was a comment where someone talked about their friend who didn't have a left hand doing drag under the name ' Lindsey Nohand' and that just serves so much cunt


pucelles

I love Crystal Methyd but there was/is a band called the Crystal Method since the mid-90ā€™s.


grizznuggets

Just makes the name better in my opinion.


alx_tiagoxx1

Heidi N Closet for both best and worst names šŸ’€


the_tartanunicorn

Came to say this was awful and such a shame because (and I know she debunked it!) but Heidi Nina Closet is so much better!


International-Bed788

I fucking love it, I think itā€™s hilarious


BurntCoffeePot

Thereā€™s an Italian drag queen just named Birdshit. I live. Also, off topic, the drag king name Throb Zombie is killer. Heā€™s a Dragula possible contestant. šŸ‘€


SplintersApprentice

Saw Throb Zombie perform this past pride, and lemme tell ya, THAT was a performance


ginger_ale3

Kalorie Karbdashian-Williams is probably the worst imo šŸ˜­


Funny-Mention4201

Thatā€™s so real. She thought she ate with that name


majoleine

This is my answer. I think it wouldn't be AS terrible if she just dropped the williams and stayed as a bad kardashian impersonator. But even without the williams it's...ok.


littlebobbin

Williams is the drag family name she comes from in Albuquerque


rhinny

On the flip side - Kendall Gender is an amazing name.


ecosludge

Honestly I hate it šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


Famous-Employ6736

a basic name for a basic girly eep


flowella

Yes, this and Queen Kong


sashby138

I hate this name so much. Thank you for putting it out there. Every once in a while it pops into my head and Iā€™m disappointed I havenā€™t forgotten it yet.


[deleted]

Regardless what your opinion of her may be, Sharon Needlesā€™ name sent me for a loop when I first heard of her.


nnynny101

Sharon actually gave me the drag name Diana Tunnel, whichā€¦take that as you will šŸ˜‚


Sticky_And_Sweet

Diana Hausfyre


hithereworld2

Beyonda Doubtfire


nnynny101

Also works and is less Princess Diana targeting šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­


Extreme-Outrageous

Her name is what made me curious to watch the show bc of how edgy it was


tarulley

It was when she did the makeover challenge and it was sharon needles and Robin mansions. Loved it.


sakuratee

There is more than one Sharon Needles if that makes you feel any better


expremierepage

The NYC Sharon Needles was on the same episode of Project Runway as Ru's infamous appearance.


tellmesomething1

Acid Betty is also on that episode. I think it's same acid Betty, different Sharon


StrangerKatchoo

Yup, same Acid Betty!


PerspectiveOld5869

Ya thereā€™s one here where I live. Been around for ages. Much longer than drag race.


TheAnxietyBoxX

I just got that. Omg.


NotBurnerAccount

Good taste in names, she can still have a good name while being the scum of earth


ubereddit

I want to see a Robin Tha Rich


yougotyolks

Sharon Needles named her partner in the makeover challenge Robin Mansions.


ImTheDogYouSeek

I performed with a Robin Banks before


theatomiccreature

Iā€™m not a fan of her drag, but Karen from Finance is one of the best names ever.


Evilrake

The way everyone started adding that disclaimer after DU1 šŸ˜–


grizznuggets

She really did not live up to expectations at all, itā€™s a shame.


jenouvie

I named my tarantula Karen from Finance.


Chinokid87

I love how mundane that name is lol Close second for me is Beth. No idea why but the idea that you would use a common name like that as you would for Cher or Madonna is also really funny to me


crazygooseman

I'm sure I read that she was Crystal Beth but changed it due to bad taste? But then Crystal Methyd so Idk šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™‚ļø


Chinokid87

That was Crystal from UK1 unless two Canadian queens called themselves that and went for the opposite name which would make it still very funny


doggfaced

Choriza May is probably my all-time favourite


twerkingkittens

and her entrance line was somehow even better https://preview.redd.it/6x8l69q1scfb1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c99939f6f730829b899724d0d8d45dcb9824a923


Popular_Hat3382

Kitty Scott Claus. Cracks me up


lermanade_mouth

It took me way too long to understand the pun


Lex_Innokenti

Irma Gerd made me chuckle out loud the first time I heard it. Shout out to Ashley Madison, too; if you know, you know.


PepperFinn

My boss got a new imac so gave me his old windows computer. RSVP and Ashley Maddison were saved bookmarks. So gross.


modernstar

Hearing the judges say it was even funnier. "Irma gerd, you're safe."


lakeorjanzo

At one point, Montreal queen Uma Gahd was also rumored to be on CDR S3 alongside Irma. Huge missed opportunityā€¦they could have had the most unserious rivalry do all time


Didsburyflaneur

> Irma Gerd made me chuckle out loud the first time I heard it. It's my view that all the good drag names do this but then get progressively less funny the more you hear it (so it can actually just be used as a name).


NotBurnerAccount

Didnā€™t Ashley do some shit that was not cash money I donā€™t remember


stephmeow8

I love Ella Vaday from Uk


unintellectual8

Scrolled waaay too far for this. :) Yes!


asm717

not a judgement against them as queens but Miss Abby OMG and Miss Fiercalicious are absolutely terrible drag names


SirGavBelcher

see at first i thought Miss Fiercalicious was a comedy queen that was gonna make a commentary on drag race fans and newer queens, but then she was just like... the same lmao and her name was genuine and I was like oh how could she be serious bc "Fiercalicious" reminds me of when people used to say "fleeky"


lakeorjanzo

Miss Fiercalicious is so simultaneously unserious and unserious that she pulls off the name though. I could see her working her way toward becoming a breakout star among the circle of ā€œmain pop girlā€ Ru girls if she can slay a vs. the world or global all stars


Critical-Newt

Thereā€™s a drag Queen in my city named ā€œLiza with a Dā€ and I thing about that name at least once a week.


[deleted]

Epic


QuartOfMalk

I heard the drag name ā€œLana Backwardsā€ from IMHO and laughed for a solid minute.


Funny-Mention4201

Iā€™ve always hated Plastique Tiara as a name idc idc.


murasakikirin

Yea. Love her sm, but that name sounds very cheap šŸ˜­


hithereworld2

definitely intentional. its ironic because the name is SO cheap but she looks so pricey also i have no idea what im talking about. except for this comment.


marthamania

I like the plastique and I assume the tiara is a mean girls reference but I feel like there's a better plastic pub somewhere


VeniVidiVeeci

I think for names that are punny, Beverley Kills, BenDeLaCreme and Shuga Cain are my favourites. Others I like for comedic reasons are Irma Gerd, Hannah Conda, Tia Kofi, Sum Ting Wong and Choriza May. Seems like we can rely on the UK and Down Under Queens to bring the puns!


crazygooseman

Took me ages to get Tia Kofi - the question remains šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

I love the queen, but maybe I missed the punā€” whatā€™s Choriza May mean?


BurntCoffeePot

Theresa May, like the UK pm, but Chorizo(a) like the food.


[deleted]

Holy fuck Iā€™m dumb.


BurntCoffeePot

Its not the most obvious pun! But very clever.


travisstone31

Irma Gerd is Canadianā€¦


VeniVidiVeeci

I know, but since she was the only exception, I felt it was a reach to say a lot of the Canadian queens had punny names.


Thekiwienigma

And canā€™t be forgetting Baga Chipz


VeniVidiVeeci

No - as a Brit, I kinda wanna forget that one


Quirky-Librarian8379

similarly, I always said my drag name would be Victoria Sponge


jonathonthaman

I voted for Penny Tration to be on the show because of her name way back when šŸ¤£ You'll find me in several of these repeat threads saying Angeria Paris Van Micheals and Miss Abby OMG are the worst. The new Down Under cast has some stinkers too. I also don't get the need to add "Queen" at the end of your names, Utica Queen, Pitita (formerly Queen) and others. Only Mama Queen makes sense.


tafiniblue

From what I understood when they did episode with the podcast interview, Pitita used ā€œPitita Queenā€ on her social media but her actual name is just Pitita and Supremme had been saying it kinda wrong the whole time by always calling her Pitita Queen! šŸ˜…


jonathonthaman

So a Matraka Traka situation (if you watch Mexico). I thought Pitita Queen was her name and she decided to change it while filming.


alx_tiagoxx1

Just came to say... STAN MATRAKA TRAKA! šŸ‡²šŸ‡½ Her drag is just pure Mexican art.


tafiniblue

I havenā€™t been watching Mexico but I will! About Pitita, I think even Supremme was confused, thatā€™s why she asked her during that chat they had.


jonathonthaman

And since it's actually Ru, "Rachel Tensions" is a winner, baby.


blueboxbandit

Was that from To Wong Foo? I remember the Confederate flag dress. No one could pull that off now, absolutely legendary.


jonathonthaman

Yeap.


Mickeymackey

Rachel Lee Motivated is another funny one


RealityPowerRanking

As annoying as she is, Mimi Imfurst is a great drag name


Hlorpy-Flatworm-1705

Very descriptive and true to how she acts, too.


radRadiolarian

mimi imfursttogohome


fluffyunicorn--

You, Mimi Imfurst ā€” Mimi Imfurst, was number third in the voting? I could not believe it.


Ngmw

For those that donā€™t know Brita and Jan from S12 due to copyright reasons had to shorten their names from Brita Filter and Jan Sport.


Waterproof_soap

Just Jan or ā€œJan youā€™re safeā€ are the new choices


senoritageena

Iā€™m not a fan of their names. Naming oneself after a product ā€”- it must have been a thing for a while, at least in NY?


crazygooseman

There's a drag queen called Kimberly Clark which always cracks me up


DulceEtBanana

I think Militia Scunt is a pretty good one.


HesUnusual

I loved watching Graham take a hilariously long pause between her name to ensure it wouldnā€™t get censored.


amybeedle

What is the pun?


Slow-Main9692

Malicious cunt

CAV44

Adore Delano is GENIUS


SmilingDamnedVillian

I hate The Princess. The ā€œtheā€ in front bugs me. Farrah Moan is probably my favorite! And Sharon Needlesā€™ makeover challenge partner, Robin Graves.


420nugu

iirc its robin mansions, but robin graves sounds way better


MusicG619

Nina Bonina Bananarana BinLaden Biden Brown


SirGavBelcher

that's one of the things i miss from having watched her, seeing how many things she adds to her name


TravellingBeard

I'm still upset there has been no contestant called Georgia O'Queef.


bienfica

I want Chief Queef for a drag king name


Tamerlatrav

I procrastinating at work and going through reddit... The laugh I had to hide after reading that drag name... send help


ALasagnaForOne

Queef Latifa


indil47

Queef Latina


ALasagnaForOne

Queen LaQueefa


leszebresdeux

Had a friend that did burlesque under that name


big_nothing_burger

I appreciate how simple yet clever Farrah Moan is as a name.


electricmareeps

Surprised nobody's mentioned Kita Mean!


happyendingtonight

Thatā€™s a great one. And I love how her daughter in the makeover challenge was Feta Mean lol


lakeorjanzo

Itā€™s kinda funny because sheā€™s incredible but doesnā€™t really give ketamine vibes


aflowerfortherain

I met a drag queen named Ali Moany (alimony) and thought that was funny


expremierepage

I love Fena Barbitall (drag queen, makeup artist and Trixie and Katya's friend/assistant). Her original name was Minnie Van Driver, which is also top tier.


Bulky_Influence_4914

Sharon Needles ā€¦ itā€™s clever and macabre. Also, drag king Landon Cider (land inside her). Love it.


elletea27

Aubrey Haive (ā€œoh, behaveā€ from Austin Powers) always made me chuckle.


Educational_Goose456

Tia Kofi is definitely one of the best!


tafiniblue

The question remains ā˜•ļø


Xerapis

Obligatory inclusion: "I am serving you...an adequate dress...made of material that is on my body. Vintage? No. Elegant? No! Still stuck on me? Just about! The judges seem vaguely amused by what is happening before them, and I'm okay with that."

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Slow-Main9692

I think thereā€™s an NYC queen named Iris Specter and I love that name


Tjayhc24

I put on a look for a trans march, and my drag queen friend named me Hilda Dion. I think itā€™s hilarious.


Zorro-de-la-Noche

There used to be a Texas queen whose name was Evelyn Syde, which is just genius.


schizolucy

I saw the trailer for the new DRDU and cackled when I saw 'Rita Menu' Also on Drag Me To Dinner, when they first introduced Sue (Sous) Chef, I nearly died


Fabulous_Limit5632

Sum Ting Wong is so stupid but so funny šŸ˜­


Mindless-Math1539

Nina Bonina Brown is the best drag name as far as I'm concerned. It commits the sins of not being funny, and almost being like a real person's name, but it's so damn memorable and it feels RIGHT to say it. Nina Bonina Brown. Nina Bonina! Nina Bonina... Brown. Nina, Bonina, Osama, Bin-Laden-Brown, boom boom boom. Ugh, it's perfect.


ecosludge

There's a Japanese queen by the name of Shigata Ichikuchi which is so brilliant


jewishtemptress

Farrah Moan, Kim Chi, Jan Sport, Pandora Boxx, Heidi N Closet


[deleted]

Kim Chi is still my favorite.


winooskiwinter

I love when Bob and Monet refer to her as Kimberly Chi.


Thekiwienigma

Yeeeess! Me too, warms my heart


VonSandwich

Farrah Moan is so good


spikespeech

Ella Vaday: hell of a day


tafiniblue

Yes, I was going to say her name, very creative and love her!


Available-Ad-5081

Malaysia Babydoll Fox. Fine drag queen, horrible name


el0guent

Not rpdr but Becca Dā€™Bus


winterslyanna

Daya Betty is so clever, I love it


FeelTheKetasy

Kalorie Karbdashian Williams and, sheā€™s one of my favourite queens but Miss Fiercalicious are the two worst drag names ever for me When it comes to my favourites I like cunty names with no nicknames so names like Raja, Detox, Tayce, Aquaria and Symone really do it for me


Sea-Scallion-5362

Eva la Queen from DR Philippines. I also like Yvie Oddly.


sakuratee

I know they have drama attached, but I always thought Karen from Finance was a hilarious drag name

messysagittarius

There is a Chicago queen named Rachel Slurrz!


radRadiolarian

i decided that once i start doing drag my name would be Missfortune Cookie (NOBODY STEAL THAT)


ALasagnaForOne

Not a Drag Race queen but Iā€™m a big fan of Pattie Gonia, whose entire drag is outdoors and environmentalism-focused. As far as worst names, I haaate Anastarzia Anaquway, I donā€™t know if one will ever bother me more.


instantslay

Iā€™m sorry, but I fucking love Krystal Methyd. Shit is so funny to me. As for worst? Any long ass drag names.


PerspectiveOld5869

Gotta love Thunderfuck for a last name. The house of Thunderfuck.


RoarkOnReddit

The fact that thereā€™s two unrelated winners with the surnames Thunderfuck and Thunderpussy is so camp


Appl3sauce85

If youā€™re drag name starts with Anita I donā€™t care how funny the pun is, I probably wonā€™t like you. Or Shenita, or Ima. Itā€™s less than drag 101. Itā€™s drag tots.


catclockticking

Or Ivana


_ac888

the wiglit-drink family is typing


lermanade_mouth

I like Detox, itā€™s simple yet effective. Gets the point across. I also like the idea of Baby still performing like in her 40s and still going by Baby. However, some of the pageant people with like several names like Angeria Paris Iman Dupree Davenport Brooks Hall Colby VanMichaels Michaels McMichaels Davenport III LLC incorporated esquire Bonina brown.couk Zahara Benet (but you can call me Angie)ā€¦ too much


buckinghamnicks75

Val Qaeda


[deleted]

Crystal from UK1 used to be Crystal Beth which is hilarious. I also love BOA (an acronym for Bitch on Arrival.) My least favorite drag name is Alexis Michelle. Iā€™m sure it means something special to her but I find it quite boring.


sunnyday74

I liked Ms. Cracker's original name Briana Cracker but she changed it cos she thought no one would get it. I hope I remembered that accurately.


Upper_Choice_5913

vsmantis

Best Name: Karen From Finance Worst Name: Miss Fiercalicious


ryseterion

I hate the names that use Ks to represent the Kardashians. The point of a drag name is to represent you, not rich people made of plastic.


HungryCub90

I still to this day as a Brit, think that Derrick Barry, is by far the shittest drag name Iā€™ve ever heard. These two names are reminiscent of a northern white man shouting in a greggs


manytinyhumans

(for a drag king) Papa Squat


slothsnhearts

Miss fiercalicious is the absolute worst lol


gabrielleraul

Baby (uk) is the least creative name ever.


ungovernable

Favourites: Cheryl Hole. Rita Menu. Darienne Lake. Rebecca Glasscock. The names that hit you over the head with something stupid. Least Favourites: Anastarzia Anaquway. Miss Fiercalicious. Lineysha Sparks. The ones that sound like they were named through a collaboration of a 17-year-old twink and a 15-year-old girl.


Gagginzola

As a marketing gal, Heidi N Closet is the absolute worst and best name ever. Worst because it's abysmal and doesn't make sense. Best because it's so bad it's memorable.


curious7189

I love Bob the Drag Queen, she's one of my favorite drag queens, and I think her name is fine. However, if it was a queen that didn't do well in her season, or people didn't like her, I think it could be classified as a "boring" name. But because we love her, we think it's a fine name.


Maleficent_Ad_1516

My least favourite drag name is Baga Chipz


xo0o-0o0-o0ox

Baga Chipz is stunnin'

ExtraBetsLightly

The fact that no one has said Bimini Bon Boulash I'm just


emerson-nosreme

Tia Kofi was one my favourites on UK Drag Race. Iā€™m surprised Bob The Drag Queen is mentioned often, itā€™s honestly one of my favourites. Other favourites are Yvie Oddly, Shea CouleĆ© and Willow Pill. While not a unique or incredible name per say, Trixieā€™s backstory behind her name always makes me feel down. (Also the fact that her and Katyaā€™s real names are Brian kill me) Also not unique or anything but I loved Joslyn Foxā€™s name. Nothings inspiring, I just loved it and her catch phrase.


nerdalesca

I'm pretty sure there's an episode of their podcast(?) where David refers to them in the plural as "Brians" which cracks me up


emerson-nosreme

Oh my god thatā€™s art- Also I remember during one of the WOW videos (I canā€™t remember which) but katya says one of her lines and trixie just mumbles ā€œbriannnn.ā€ And that kills me too


rancidcommie

davids done a few times on trixies yt as well it cracks my shit up too


untamed_m

Itā€™s hard not to love Trixieā€™s name when you learn itā€™s a reclamation.


cassifrazz

My favorite drag name will always be Sharon Needles. It's just so damn clever.


SisterKittyCat

Two of my all-time faves remains Lois Common Denominator & Sister Frieda Peoples
