In the Carmen Sandiego franchise, the names of characters are usually puns.  I'm going to list some of the known ones:

 

Hardley Worthit = "Hardly worth it"
M. T. Pockets = "Empty Pockets"

Rob M. Blind = "Rob them blind"
Ruth Less = self explanatory
 

Post more gag names below, you can make new ones up too!

Let's see how many we can get!

While we're at it, "Chip Masters" is a good gag name too.

Well, it might not be exactly word play but if someone wants to have some kind of nickname for an overly buff male, Mystery Science Theater 3000 always has good names ready and waiting.

*g* I can think of a great character for 'Abner Cadabra' though his silly-magic-persona may conflict with Emmesey-Squire
