    Default I need some Gnome puns

    I need some gnome puns. While I do not intend to fill my game with lots of puns, I would like a handful to pick from.

    I intend to play a kind, female, Sweet Gnome named Arabana.

    And yes, Gnomes. will run the large Depot of hardware and tools.

    Thank you.

    The most important thing in being an adult is learning exactly what to give a <expletive> about, and exactly how many of those to give.

    Gnome on the range.
    Gnome sweet gnome.
    There's no place like gnome.
    You could have a linguist friend named Gnome Chomsky.

    Check out Randall Munroe's xkcd #1704: Gnome Ann


    An old one that I cannot remember the source of was Cyragnome de Bergerac ... he had a very long nose.

    I used to be a gnome Ad, but I settled down.

    Nice, but he left out that Gnome Ann is an island. Which I guess would be Gnome Ann's land.

    If your character is chosen for something, they've been Gnome-inated.

    Of course, if anything strange or unusual happens to them, that would be an a-Gnome-aly.

    At least you can be sure you'll always have a Gnome to go to

    And of course there's always the clairvoyant gnome on the run, the small medium at large.

    I'd love to help you paddle out a few extra, but I have gnome oar.

    Don't forget to use some simple height puns too.

    "I have a little problem with that"

    There are potential puns to be made on words ending in -nome: astro-gnome, gastro-gnome, agro-gnome,...

    And of course if the gnome is a priest he might be a Gnome de Dieu.

    Nomine is a Latin word for name (in a particular conjugation.) Some plays in Gnom-in-nay for a gnome based on True Names.

    Gnome-en est omen? And if he has to hide his true name, he might need a gnome de guerre or a gnome de plume.

    I'm particularly fond of the itinerant Gnomes, who travel around in caravans; The Gnomads.

    Also don't forget that if you hear a ticking noise while traveling on the Tube it is likely to be the Metro-gnomes.
    Time is but a pattern in the currents of causality,
    an ever changing present that determines our reality,
    the past we see as history, the future seed with prophecy,
    and all the time we think on time our time is passing constantly.

    I use blue text for silliness and/or sarcasm. Do not take anything I say in blue text seriously, except for this sentence and the one preceding it.

    The Gnome capital has a very highly respected monument dedicated to the outlanders from various races who helped defend them in battle.

    It is the Tomb of the un-Gnome Soldier.

    Since all roads lead to Gnome, half the traffic is Gnome-ward bound.

    So the hardware store is Gnome Depot? Is the leader tyrannical, a real gnome despot? How about clan Alaska? Do you know them? You know how to make a gnome mad? You burn down his home.

    There is a Grimoire that contains all the spells that have ever been used by Gnomes (mostly illusion). It's called the Gnome of Magic.
