Best Characters names

Postby grayjaket » Thu Oct 30, 2003 3:05 am

What are you favorite characters names? These don't have to be your characters at all, just anyone you've seen around. My favorite names have been Andy Clap, Sayl Emsti, and Fancy Carrot. You've gotta love someone named after a vegetable!
I just can't stop coming back....

I loved the name Gwar! It was so cute! I also thought Easle Quathak was an interesting name...points on originality! LOL I also love Carrot Top. Also Small Fry! Small Fry is hilarious. I'll write more as I think of them....Cantr's taking up too much space in my mind! LOL

Justin Credible sounds like a cool name--I have always loved names that said something else. Oh, get this--there was a guy in my class last year that was named Brock. His middle name is Lee. Seriously! I don't know if his parents are just psycho or if they just didn't realize that they were naming their son after a vegetable!! LMAO

I for one don't like the funny names...or people who name their characters after celebrities.
It kind of ruins the "feeling" of the game.

It's like the PRG types who play all their characters as semi-retarded people who plays around like children with food and mud.

Damn...I must be really boring.

I agree about the celebrity names. But the funny ones, I don't know, they kind of liven things up a bit, don't you think?

Dude, TN2, you just got PWN3D. C'mon, man, we know you're Silly.

my favorite names? Ever? Or just my chars?

Vender Ghost is a good one...tho my char El made fun of him at first.

Glierora Fwudebode. and everyone played by that player. Weirdo names.

I gotta say, some of my old-school names were hella tight.
El Adan and Ad Astra? Fi-ine.

probably my personal "me char" favorite is Draveth Moore...little known Cult Mechanicus person who died shortly after mapping the Quil Forest about 4 or 5 years ago...anyone in Quil ever get his map? Schola-Sodalis Draveth Moore, explorator. Sounds so cool.

I've been guilty of 2 or 3 celebrity names, but they were from Lord of the Rings...and I only stole 2 complete names.
I'm not dead; I'm dormant.

I got the map, it's a damn good one, even though it was only over a short area. It's become the model for his replacement, who if my ooc sources are correct is somewhere near Tirqui, my chr has probaly forgotten about him though, reckon's he prolly aint coming back

I like making up new and cool names rather than taking existing ones. Also I don't take names form games and TV shows, especialy all exclusively from one game, which makes it damn obvious who your characters are

In general, I like names that are not from celebrities and that do not contain any normal words, like 'carrot', although it can be funny if it is really well hidden. I prefer names that are really made up, but still sound like very normal names. Like indeed Easle Quathak. And I like names that are long, and have q's, c's, etc. in them :) ... Don't know what my favorite name would be, though - saw too many different names now :) ... Quathak scores high ;) ...

Didn't get anything of that... :?:

It's not just Silly either, pretty much all the guards in Naron, people in Pok, guards in Blojt, many in tircqi and so on is played in the same way.
I just don't get it why many of the active RPG types are played as some kind of grown infants...
Silly was at least odd, but seeing some elite guard acting like a five year old boy in his spare time should be rather unusual...

Don't forget that there are also players of quite different age groups. There are people in their early teens playing. Besides, someone hired this guard, you should wonder about those people :) ...
