no but i got...
vigilant cats
Ultra Turtles (funny that i got this right after Hordini's comment)
Adroit Hippos
Raging Saints
Brawling Bees
Azure Golems (i like that)
Snapping Cobras
Dancing Champions
you'd think they would make the generator not able to put names like turtle with ridiculous things like ultra and dancing. I used to code programs in HS/college and it wouldn't be that hard, just some if/else statements, or cases.

That is funny you actually got Ultra Turtles. That just goes to show how versatile the Turtle is for naming a Space Marine chapter!
And Nurglitch, why not just call them the Killer Bees?

I get why people that haven't seen the movie think it's about two gay dudes, rather than emotional intimacy or lack thereof, but I don't get why some people are stupid enough to confuse it for "Black Daddies on White Twinks Ass-Banging Rodeo IV".
Oh come on, even if Brokeback Mountain was about two gay cowboys and I have no desire to ever watch it, I'm not all about gay cowboys. I watched that one with Sylvester Stallone in it and was like, hey, this is definitely not Rambo, and why is he wearing rhinestones!? But come on, it had to be head and shoulders above Black Daddies on White Twinks Ass-Banging Rodeo IV, that movie was terrible!

Dancing Champions hey?
Lascannon fire criss-crossed in front of the Marine position, as Captain Chan and his command squad waited for his Chapter Master's order to attack. The battle had been raging on for nearly three weeks with no sign of slowing down. If this one attack worked, the Dancing Champions would be able to take the world and bring it back into the Emperor's domain.
'Soon, my Lord?' asked Ancient Le'caen.
'Yes,' Chan said. 'Soon.'
The comm-channel burst to life, the voice of a frantic Guard commander filling the Marines' ears.
'The Emperor's Children have broken right through!' the voice said. 'Captain Chan, they're heading right for you!'.
'Then let us meet might with might," Chan said. 'Dancing Champions - advance!'
As one the Marines of the 4th Company roared, rising over the trench line and running straight towards the enemy position. Chan spotted his equal among the Traitors, a vile pink-clad Chaos Lord surrounded by the sinful warriors of his Chosen Retinue. The two command squads stood feet apart from one another, and the two commanders eyed each other cautiously. Without a word being spoken between the two, one of the Chosen set an arcane device upon the ground. Neither Chan nor his adversary looked away from one another as the Chaos Marine performed his dark ritual.
When he was done the Chosen warrior looked up from the device.
'Lord S'thor, it is ready," the Chosen warrior said.
'Then let's play...' the Chaos Lord hissed.
The Chosen warrior struck a rune upon the unholy relic, and instantly a piercing wail began to eminate from the daemon-like mouth of the device. To an incomprehensible beat, the Chaos Lord began to dance. He moved with an unearthly speed, his movements both rythmic and grotesque. Chan wanted to look away, but knew that he could not show fear in the eyes of his own men. It was a battle he could still win - the Emperor was on his side, and he needed no other helper.
Eventually the movements ended, and the Chaos Lord stopped. Around them the Chosen began to chuckle to themselves. One of them uttered: 'You just got served!'
Chan's heart pumped, his face turned into a scowl.
'Heretic,' he began. 'Listen closley. I am Captain Magnusson Galator Chan, 4th Company Captain and Master of the Floor, the Saviour of B'Gee, the one who stopped the Saturday Night Plague of the 70 System, Hero of S'dio 54. I have never met an equal to my abilities, and now it is time to show you just why we are called the Dancing Champions.' He lent in closer, so his face was mere inches from the Chaos Lords face. 'Oh no vile traitor, you are the one about to be served!' He turned to his command squad. 'Brother Volta - Hymnal 73. And play it at double speed!'
By nightfall the Emperor's Children army was no more. Shamed by their loss to Captain Chan, the Chaos Lord had taken his forces back to the Warp Gates and left the planet forever. The Dancing Champions had been victorious, and Captain Chan had another title to add to his glorious history. The celebrations aboard the Battle Barge Sphere of Mirrors lasted for days, and never again would the forces of Chaos challenge their rule of the planet..."
Yeah... not so scary methinks.
BYE

i love the story, and i think i have to make this chapter now just so that i can model the lords retinue with a boom box, and have all of the vet champs break dancing and such.
oh wait i got some more god ones
Zeta Owls
Umbrageous Barracudas
Emerald Lords
Sapphire Scorpions
Wild Chameleons
Snapping Fists
Doom Kraken
what was the man who made this smoking, or at least why didn't he put some things in there that couldn't be matched up to make the most ridiculous names. yes it's good for ha ha chapters, but not for ones that your trying to be serious with, at least not without wasting several min clicking the button to get a good name
