Game characters that have the same name as you?

[farq1414]

while i do know that there are some people on this site with the same name as my i never known of a video game character with the name Callum

 

[Drudgelmir]

Still haven't seen a game character called Ali {the male kind}

In Runescape there's about 10 of them. Take your pick.

Concerning me however, Jacob Keyes from Halo:Combat Evolved.
My last name I have no chance of finding, ever. It's a mixture of old English and Gaelic and it means son of a witch or son of blue. The jury is out on that one.

Do Spongebob Squarepants games that offer Patrick Star as a playable character count?

 

[anANGRYkangaroo]

Any game character named Daniel? Probably a lot, but I forget.

Edit: Oh shit, that guy from Amnesia's named Daniel, isn't he?

Yes he is, and so am I. Made the game THAT MUCH FUCKING SCARIER

Never met (or heard of) a character named Emil, the closest ive ever gotten was a sword called "Emils Brand" from WoW,(no flame please) i kept it for the lulz.

I think the main character from Tales of Symphonia is called Emil. It's a JRPG though, if you don't play them there's no way you could know that. XD

yay! my other name brother is a main character! okay its in a game i have never heard of, and i am not a huge fan of JRPGs, but its awesome nonetheless!

Oh dear, forum must have been acting up... ^^; I kind of wondered why I got four notifications.

Theres an Emile in Halo: Reach, if that counts for you

 

[Vancleef]

I've yet to find a Linus in a game.

But if you find one, please tell me.

 

[standokan]

Not with my last name but my first name sure. We´ve got Smilin' Stan S. Stanman from the Monkey Island series, I sell EVERYTHING.

 

[Daggedawg]

I share my first name with Douglas Cartland from Silnet Hill 3. Not bad.

 

[AetherWolf]

This dude from Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World.

Spoiler

I wouldn't recommend playing it though.

 

[IamQ]

I'm Swedish, what do you think?

 

[Optiluiz]

Only once, in RE4. Even then, one letter was off. LuiZ. Oh well.

 

[Girl With One Eye]

By the way, for those who don't know of any try searching through this list here. [http://www.giantbomb.com/characters/?page=11&letter=r]

Well that was a surprise, didn't think any character would share my name although apparently one does. Never heard of the game though.

Nailah from a Wii game called Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn.

 

[TyrantGanado]

Alex, the unlockable boxing dinosaur from Tekken.

T_T

Isn't there someone else?!

Alex Mercer from Prototype?

I don't recall anyone using my first name as a first name in a game, the closest thing is Agent Ross from Red Dead Redemption but that's his surname.

Anyone got any examples?

 

[Jedamethis]

Nope. I'm manly Jess, and games just can't create a manly enough man to bear the name yet.

 

[Casual Shinji]

My name is just way too Dutch to be featured in any game.

 

[onewheeled]

I don't think I've ever seen an Eric in a video game..

Unless you count the South Park games, with Eric Cartman.

 

[Kekkles]

No, I know not a single Connor in-game whilst it is quite common in real life... but I did click 'Randomise' for my character name on Warhammer Age of Reckoning and it came up with Kekkles. That shocked me.

 

[Paul]

I haven't seen a lot of games with characters that share my name. I've seen none that share my surname, but the only Paul I can think of is the guy from Far Cry 2. Saddening what my name is associated with, right?

 

[Teh Roflchoppa]

Dino Crisis 3's main guy was named Patrick, he looked a lot like me...
