Trolls in Runescape are named after the first thing they try to eat. This is explained in the game by a troll named Dad IIRC. There's also one named My Finger

I believe you may be thinking of My Arm from the quests ā€œMy Arm’s Big Adventureā€ and ā€œMaking Friends With My Armā€, unless I’m forgetting about a troll named My Finger.

There’s a kid named finger joke there somewhere, I just know it.

Oh right, thanks! It's been nearly two decades since I did that quest lol

Extremely understandable. I just have turbo autism and a frankly embarrassing playtime in OSRS 😭

Also, I can’t believe you would point out to me that the quest is two decades old. In a single moment I straight up withered away into dust

Yeah in my brain I confused

"My Arm's Big Adventure"

with the character Little Finger from GoT

Creating "My Finger's Little Adventure"

I don't want to start up Runescape to check my playtime, but I do know it's in the thousands of hours (obviously) and I got the 20 year cape a while ago, now waiting for the 25. I play rs3 though, I don't have the time to start over again. I just play for a month or 2 every year or 2.

This joke isn't just a one off thing either, every troll has a name to go with it. You can even get a baby troll that you can feed most tradable items to to change its name to the item. A few people feed stuff like Christmas crackers to them to show off.

It also gets meta

Lol was named after eating a human who was repeating the phrase over and over, and so Lol guessed that was the human's name.
