I've always thought "Gatecrasher" was a good name for a tanker character.
"Grease" or "Greasestain" for a mechanic.
"Inkwell" for a paperwork type.
"Panopticon" for a surveillance expert.

I can't take credit for this one, a friend of mine came up with it -- even with an illustration which I wish I had a copy of, but I always liked it:

RED TAPE - G.I. Joe Office Clerk. Accessories included an exploding file cabinet.

Some cool stuff here, everyone. Some very intriguing ideas I hadn't considered.
