You can use it to signify criticism (e.g., “I think calling it a ‘Help Desk’ was a misnomer—they were no help at all”) or humor (e.g., “Is there a more cruel misnomer than ‘self-cleaning oven’? Unless it means you have to clean it yourself!”).

You can use misnomer to add interest to your writing to keep your readers engaged (e.g., “We waited ages to see the koala bears—a complete misnomer, dear reader, as they are marsupials—but it was well worth it!”).
