Mine is the same as my account name here, which is the alias I also use for every game, and to sign whatever artistic stuff I make (like paintings or drawing). Sometimes, I may use my real first name, and my alias as family name if the game ask for it.

Why change what works, eh? It took me long enough to find an alias that was unique and that I liked.

Unless I'm playing a girl, in which case I name her after one of my younger years' crush.

I'll either go for a cheap joke, my fem-Shepard is called Cybill, or a biblical name usually old testament.

If it's a guy (typically some kind of warrior type), then I usually name him Dagron. It's what Strong Mad carves into the desk when Strong Bad is teaching people how to draw dragons like Trogdor the Burninator. It's just "dragon" with the letters mixed up, which is apparently what I equate male tank characters to...

Occasionally Dauragon as well, who is a bad guy from the PS2 game "The Bouncer."

If it's a girl, I name her Akyra or Kaori (from SSX). If I can't use those names for any reason, then I hit the auto generator button until something decent comes up, then I change a couple letters or add some based on whatever pops into my head at the time...

For custom characters (eg games like Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout)

Shaun Stormth (The second name changes a bit, it depends what type of game it is, such as Oblivion or fallout)

Character like Sheperd or Hawke, I keep their names.....dunno about making them custom made though, anyones other thought about this...

Gahars always works for me, unless it would be really conspicuous in the role I'm playing.

In that case, I just come up with the most conspicuously inconspicuous name possible (Like Billy Everyteen).

For some reason I went with Shepard for my FalloutNV charachter, then I forgot about it as Names arnt really important in that game

then I was walking along and got interupted by an NCR ranger, where I said "The names shepard" for a second I was like "wait, WHAT?.....oh right I remembe now" since I forgot I even named the charachter

For male Characters it is always Dunta Coral, hense my name on here. It is actually a character I RP in both text based websites as well as Game RPGs.

If it is a female character I choose between two names, either Atin (Mandalorian for Stubborn) or Chertyl.

Tyrak.

What?

Actually that started out as a roleplaying name and turned into my nickname, so I'm not entirely sure it counts. Nowadays I tend to use a good number of different ones, though War and Vitale are recurring favourites.

Also...

i do the same thing i do every game for a profile name, i spell "CrustyOatmeal" and if there are character restrictions i stop where the restriction does. so for zelda (im replaying it again) my character name is "CrustyOa" and on starcraft 2 my account name is "CrustyOatmea"

i just love my username so much i just tend to roll with it. i think im known as CrustyOatmea more than i am my original profile name

Bartholomew....
Always liked the name.

And Trilby. Because it is an awesome, awesome hat.

For the legend of Zelda games, though, I just use Link.

It depends entirely on the character I'm playing. My favorite though, is Aelelia.

I tend to go with Klumpofiercus Fo(e)tus. It started as a joke-name on Warcraft III multiplayer, and it kinda stuck. It is of course an evolution of the age-old nickname you see to the left.

Akeela is the name that I use most for just about anything. It's a reference to a very specific D&D character that I made although the name actually came from a book series I read. It's kind of funny actually. The character of the book was a non-violent, book worm and the D&D character is a halfling Barbarian/Scout in a Gestalt D&D campaign. Now whenever I say the name I think of a halfling with a huge axe running around faster than everyone else and killing whatever is in sight as opposed to someone planning a great library.
