Well, GTA Feghoot, I think the American Puritans get a medal in this competition. Here's some of the crazy names they gave their kids:
Misercordia-Adulterina
Job-Raked-Out-Of-The-Ashes
Small-Hope
The-Lord-is-Near
Fight-the-Good-Fight-Of-Faith
Be-Courteous
Kill-Sin
Safely-On-High
Ah dumb names, the punishment that keeps on giving.

Hey! You made these up! And these aren't awesome names--these are dumb names!
First of all, I did not make these up! These names are listed in Bill Bryson's Made in America: An Informal History of the English Language in the United States. :P
And they are so awesome....awesomely dumb-crazy. Besides, I scoff at your argument. I wouldn't say that "assmann" is awesome. I would say that "assmann" is more "dumb-crazy" and less "awesome."
Speaking of dumb-crazy, here's some more Puritan names for your reading pleasure:
Flie-Fornication
Mahershalalhasbaz
Zaphenathpaneah
Zerubbabel
Mene Mene Tekel Upharsin
Maybe Barnes
Notwithstanding Griswold
And a more contemporary one:
Suck-on-it-GTA-Feghoot!
As long as we're on the subject, don't forget these hot Puritan names:
Increase Mather
Cotton Mather
Zabdiel Boylston
Imminent Judgement Abbott
