Thread-topic: [dinosaur] The best and worst names of non-avian dinosaurs

Among non-bird theropods at least...

Best- Velocipes, Deltadromeus, Lythronax, Xiaotingia, Borogovia.

Worst- "Thanos", Raptorex, Dynamoterror, Timimus, Similicaudipteryx.

Clearly this is an unproductive discussion ...

But clearly the best names are Xenoposeidon and Brontomerus.

That's hardly even up for discussion, is it?
