Character names

Have you thought up a name for your characters yet? How did you come up with it?
Do you always use the same character name for every game?

I'm still thinking but I'll probably go with Kvothe.....

Sounds badass

I've always had the name Xzen(pronounced Zen). I've used it for D&D and other table top or pen and paper RPGs and carried it over to my online gaming.

I'm thinking of going with the name: Valdis

Akane. Based off a game I love.

Mamoru. Japanese for protector, goes along with my Lance play style.

Nothing set in stone for me. Had one named Lug (Obscure Willow reference), a female named Ivy, cuz it was also 3 letters. Have a current character named Erick the Awful. Might name a new one Morty, an Undercover Blues reference. Maybe another Eric. Female would likely be Ivy again. . .

Except for when he became Mars.

Some of my name choices may include: MasterOnion, Onion, Master, DJ, Slagathor, Trogdor, Surt, Fenrir, Ratatosk, Odin, various other norse mythology names, fuzzy, and Yogi.

Ratatosk? From "Tales of Symphonia. Dawn of the New World"?

Yes and no. That name was taken from the ratatosk in norse mythology that lived on the world tree Yggdrasil and used in the game.

Most likely a name from the Malazan Books Of The Fallen by Steven Erikson, Whiskyjack (if it fits), Quick Ben, Fiddler, Tehol Beddict, Rake... or one of my past favourites for games, Druss.

PAiN

From Naruto, when he destroyed Konoha, it was gg.

Just gonna go with my actual name: Jake.

I will go with either Lalo or Faire
untill I realised that not many people know how to pronounce Lalo.. let alone Faire...

I have a few I might go with, possibly for different characters. (I at least want two characters.)

--Variations of my Hawk names: Hawkfriend, Hawkie, Hawk
--Variations of Titan: Titan, Titanium, TheTitan
--Maybe Both: TitanHawk, TheTitanHawk
--Drowrin
--Falrion
--Lilith
--Anything else I think up.

Exactly /yes/

Fitting name for a bruitish hunter

Arkenaw, because I don't want to confuse people..

Sai

Because it's a 3 letter name no one can possibly misspell

Lol, so very true Asi.

So very true indeed...

hard to miss pronounce Say too.

I use my real name.

I know people like to make their own characters, or be really unoriginal and steal other characters names, or be really original and take another characters name and then misspell it (intentionally of course!).

laoshanicrus of course,its my youtube monster hunter skype steam life......poetry

For me my character names will more likely be...

Male:

-"Ike" (seeing that it is my MHTri character name it will make it easier for those who are migrating from to ultimate who aren't on the forums).

-"Law" (for new forums members who wish to hunt with me and to make it easy for them to find me in game)

or my real name Yea like that will ever happen.

Female:

-"Lorazieh" (she is the name of my tri female character so I figured it'll just be easy to keep a familiar name with me to avoid confusion).
