I would probably be really bad at that, but I should try it anyway! I mostly play the Celebrity Name Game, where someone says the name of a famous person (the definition of "famous" is pretty expansive) and the next player tries to name someone whose first name begins with the letter of that person's last name. So, like, R. Crumb-->Carly Simon-->Stephen Colbert etc etc. Play direction reverses when one person uses a name with the same first and last letter. If you come up with a first name that's the same as the previous turn's last name, you get a free pass for when you can't think of one.
Okay so probably everyone knows how to play that and I didn't need to explain. The only new one I've ever come up with was "whoever can name more of a band's songs wins", but that can get contentious unless you have an iPod for reference.
