We have Ironic Nickname, for when those nicknames are the opposite of what the character actually looks like, though that's not necessarily what you're after.

I went through the Characters folder in Naming Conventions, and the closest I could come is Name That Unfolds Like Lotus Blossom, but that's for much more dragged out/lengthy descriptive names.

I don't think we have it — the closest would probably be either The Magnificent or Luke Nounverber, so you might use one of those in a pinch. I think there was a discussion at one point about how Adjective Noun Fred sounded more like this than what it actually was (a Japanese title convention, eg. Mobile Suit Gundam, Metal Wolf Chaos, Vampire Hunter D, etc), but I don't remember if anything ever came of it.

Yeah, I don't think we have it either.
