Game characters that have the same name as you?

[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]

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.

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...

 

[Nothing Tra La La]

My first name is Jacob's (Mass Effect 2) last name. Hated that creep, too. It was funny when my femshep yelled at him all the time, though, because she was saying my name. Made me feel special.

 

[Laser Priest]

None of them that I can think of.

It's not that my name is uncommon, it's just entirely a shitty name.

 

[Generic_Username]

This is the part where it sucks to have a non-American name.

 

[Azaradel]

Y'know, I grew up playing StarCraft and it never once crossed my mind that we have the same first name... huh...

There's no way in hell you'd find someone with my last name, though.

 

[kutuup]

Not a game, but I share the name "P Bateman" with Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, except my name isn't Patrick, still starts with a P though

 

[Hisshiss]

The only one Ive ever seen, and they aren't exactly "characters", are the Hobbes from fable. My friends taunted me to no end on fable 3 when they started T bagging and fireballing the hobbes and them robbing their corpses.

 

[Black Arrow Officer]

Umm... the Reagent vendor in Stormwind City.

Once I get my degree, I'm gonna be a game designer and name the protagonist Owen!
