I have a suggestion to share some jokes.
I think everyone has their own original names for units, heroes, etc.
Shall we begin?

Grand Piano - Hydra from the Swamp
Kolyunya (after Nikolai Valuev) - Giant
Underwear - Gremlins
Pokemon - Pikemen
Exhibitionist - guy in a cloak from the Conflux
Grannies - ghosts from the Necropolis
Grandpas - dwarves
Mutant dogs - Cerberi from the Inferno
Meat chopper - crusaders (maybe Paladins?) from Castle (I have the English version)
Cattle drivers - guys with whips from the Inferno (Pit bulls)

To hit someone over the head with a kettle - to use "Chain Lightning" (the English name is similar to "kettle")
Copper kettle - artifact

That's all I could remember offhand.

Masochist pit lords (demons with a whip)
Vacuum cleaner-like air elementals
Monks (from the English word "monk")
Crunchy fairies or skeletons (they make a crunching sound when they walk/fly)

Monster - Behemoth (it was actually called that, I don't remember which version). Ancient Behemoth.
I think that's all...

In Heroes of Might and Magic III, all the names are normal, and I call them as they are written.
But in Heroes of Might and Magic V... gargoyles are called "bread," and so on.
