    		Come on! I'm sure you can think of loads if you're pointed in the right direction. Bang, thwack, splash etc.

    I believe the rarest onomatapoeia in the lanaguage is frou-frou - the rustling sound made by a lady's silk frock.

    		I hate to say it, but these are the examples we learned in school. Snap, Crackle, POP!, Bang, Rustle, Sizzle etc. (We Had A Weird Teacher)
