What Do You Name Your RPG Characters?

[Scarim Coral]

Depends on the game itself.
Sometime I used a set of fantasy names I already used like Scarim, Raiken, Vallen etc or other times I make a name that suit the game setting (e.g. I named my Asuran Mesmer "Vintt" cos Asuran male names tend to be single and snap sound names) or sound cool (I named my RaCast from Phantasy Star Zero "Mid Knight").

 

[Lightknight]

Names of friends and family when given the option. Except for the love interest of course.

 

[Mr Fixit]

Well Bob & Steve are always acceptable, but I normally just make something up on the spot. I almost always pick something mildly funny, never too serious. My last Skyrim character was an Orc named Hamar gro-Badrash, only mildly childish. The worst, or best, name I've ever come up with was way back in Jade Empire with "Luminous Nutsack".
