Names to Run Away From Really Fast/Unpronouncable Names

A form of Names to Run Away From Really Fast: Anything really long or otherwise impossible to pronounce on the first try. H.P. Lovecraft made this his stock in trade. For example, Cthulhu, Ithaqua, Shub-Niggurath, Y'golonac (YOU FOOL! YOU'VE DOOMED US ALL!!), Nyarlathotep, Yog-Sothoth, Etc.

Remember, you should always consider the original language of the story. Something impossible to pronounce can be perfectly easy to say for someone who hears things like that for whole life. The same applies if character is supposed to be a foreigner, it might be normal for country of his origin.

Examples of Names to Run Away From Really Fast/Unpronouncable Names include:
