Wow, this takes me back. 

 

Anyway, some favourites:

Professor Electric Wolfman

The Quantum Rhinoceros
Dragonloom

Lord Glorious Bear and his husband Agent Gigantic Catman

 

And several others I'm keeping to myself because they were actually good.

Take your power sets, then come up with a bad pun that involves them both, ideally.

 

I just made a ice/stone scrapper.  He was a world class chef until he accidentally ingested 4S ("Super Secret Soldier Serum") when the Council invaded his restaurant as two international agents were making an exchange.  Hilarity and mayhem ensued.

 

Say hello to Quiche Moraine!

If all else fails, I look for units of measurement associated with the particular powerset(s) I've selected:

 

Amp, Volt, Watt, Newton, Coulomb, Curie, Octave, Decibel, Fahrenheit, etc...

And with quantity modifiers if necessary; I had Kilodyne, an En/En Blaster, back on Live.

 

Or you can go with Dogbert's suggestion to use an astronomical reference as a modifier, although Dilbert's retort of "Uranus-Hertz" shows the potential problems with that.

Well, I can't say I wouldn't be tempted...

I've been using Pacific Rim name generators for some characters and MM pets. There are separate ones for Kaiju and Jaegers. They create pretty unique names like:

 

Jaeger: Titan Bohemian, Echo Rebel, Solar Battler, Crimson Hellion etc.

 

Kaiju: Shivmaul, Grievance, Tuskblight, Crystalreaver etc.

 

There are several different generators, all with their own word pools. Easy to find them with Google.
