opinions of a non-mafia player:

powerhouse sounds better than funhouse. title's fine; the pinturiccio reasoning is pretty good. if they have a history of being a strong mafia player, it'd be great. just don't think "because badass" is solid enough reasoning.

actually going to
2nd "For Whom the Bell Trolls"
(any capitalization) because again, non-mafia player, whose only impression of Jingle
is
definitely "nonsensical/troll-y". having a relevant username does help the title.
If you don't know how to lie, then how do you know when you're being lied to?

Nominate Jingle “for whom the Bell Trolls”.
Btw small spoiler alert: Jingle got enough votes that, if he wants to keep it, he can keep Ring a Bell.

Obviously that doesn't mean not to discuss title nominations for him--he could opt to not keep it; a better title could be suggested which he likes more than Ring a Bell; etc. So feel free to keep the talks going there, but I figure for the purposes of full disclosure you should be aware of that.

(This isn't much of a spoiler since I'm working on the writeup now.)

For whom the bell trolls is ALMOST a case of “The perfect is the enemy of the good”

Except it’s more like “the barely-adequate is the enemy of the good enough”

Nom Elbirn for content aficionado since it appears to be a form of meme police he actually likes and you monsters wouldn’t vote to let him keep it. Shame on you.

Compromise, spell his title "Meme Police" but pronounce it "Content Afficionado"
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
