Well thers a few, see if you can come up with any(of your own).

While talking to my friends via Gmail, I casually mentioned Eärwen but I spelled it without the accent. One of my (ex...:p) friends said to me, and I quote, "Hehe Earwen. Arwen is so close to Armwen, which sounds way cooler. Then we can have a Footwen, an Eyewen, a Handwen, and so on. hehe the Shoulderwen's connected to the Armwen. The Armwen's connected to the Elbowen. The Elbowen's connected to the Handwen....*sings*"

The Roll of Kings
 

In the history of The Dulledain there were once Kings of men who built mighty floating barges...they were called The Six Sea-kings or VI Kings. Their names were Tar-Anonymous I, Erik I, Kilohertz and Kilocycle.......of the last two little is known apart from their names which were Pop I and Tugboat Will I.

In the litle town of Free, in The Prattling Parrot he was known simply as Stupor by the owner, a one Barman Butterball, this was due to the blank expression. That was caused by too many botox injections at the hands of Rubbermask Brown at Razscalpel. Secretly though he was none other than The Chief Stranger of the North, descendant of Kings. It was in the time of Halfashoe great grandson of Halfaleg that The Witchy-king of Wagner chased the Dulledain from their city of Forlorn and they wandered their broken realm with their chieftain Halfanhearth...............

'The Seven Phones are The PAL.HAND.T.V's of The Kings of Neomanor. Their name mean That With Which To Communicate from Afar and The Seeing-Phone of Oldcrank is but one of them' said The Grand Alf, as he then sang:-

Big screens and loud rings
With polytones three
How good it is to have at hand
A thing with which to see
Seven styles of seven phones
With one it's tariff free......

I posted this before but:

Selling-bill had two sons: I-say-rule and Eyes-narrowing. They founded two kingdoms after escaping Want-no-more: All-yours in the north and Gone-duh in the south. I-say-rule lived in Minus-sit-still and Eyes-narrowing lived in Mine-is-better.

Yeah, lame.

No! that is quite good, I like it.
