<DIV>My HEF swashy is called <STRONG>Scervee Seadogg</STRONG>. I had wanted to name him Scurvey but the game wouldn't allow it. Seadogg was an attempt at linking the half elf to the water, where they supposedly find peace since they're outcast by both humans & elves, while still keeping a pirate type name.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I see the name overall as being self-deprecating to reflect how he was treated in life.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Originaly I had wanted to name my shwashy Guybrush Threepwood [so what if it's stolen, Monkey Island rules!] but I guess Sony & LucasArts have joined forces since SWG and the name wasn't allowed!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Flame away! :smileywink:</DIV>

<DIV>Everyone's name doesn't have to be a variant of Quenya, nor should we have to invent our own languages to name a video game character. I've read The Silmarillion, The Hobbit, LotR, and most everything else published by Tolkien, as well as Forgotten Realms and Dragonlance novels galore... Yet my rogue's name is Sneaks, and his surname is going to be something goofy like Nstabs or whatnot. I mean geeze, it's a game. It's meant to be had fun with; making a name shouldn't be an agonizing experience.</DIV>

Syrano EspadaSyrano because I just like the name, not because I was naming myself after that fool "Cyrano" with the [FaarNerfed!] nose (though it *is* amusing getting asked every time I log in where my nose is, not). The name "Syrano" or "Cyrano" or multiple other versions originates not as an actual name, but a reference to an inhabitant of the island of "Cyrene" off the coast of northern Africa. Espada is the spanish word for "Sword". I wanted something that translates to "Rapier" however, that is more literally known as "Estoque" in spanish. Didn't quite have the same ring as "Espada" and they are "close enough" in spirit for what I was trying for <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />As for people with names like "Stabsjoo Innaface". I dislike them immensly. It does not however ruin my gameplay any and I don't report stupid names. It just reflects on the creativity and originality of the person in question, and a certain level of "maturity" (when they choose names like "Claytorus"). As such, they won't ever find their way into my guild or my groups.

<DIV>I picked a French-sounding first name for my Half-Elf Swashbuckler, so for the first 19 levels he was simply Renveault. At 20, I looked up obscure important French people and ended up with Renveault Becquerel, last name coming from the French physicist who noticed radiation. My other Half-Elf is a Sorcerer and named after the main character from The Stranger; he'll end up Merseault Becquerel. The names are obscure enough to get by naming policy, I'd think.</DIV>

<DIV>I like my first name, used it since EQL with my Bard. It is "Atraiyu". My other 3 names for my characters are all stolen from LOTR. Atraiyu is, of course, from "The Neverending Story". I'm thing of making his last name the name of the dragon, so it would be "Atraiyu Falkor". What do u think?</DIV>
Mystikel
02-15-2005, 02:16 AM
<DIV>As far as taking the name of the dragon for your last I wouldn't myself because it's two completly different characters. I would try to come up with something that might go with Atraiyu, but it's really all up to you.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I always like to have a last name that kinda conveys something of the type of character I play. In EQ one I was a ranger and went with Mystikel Pathseeker, my enchanter Rykev Dreamweaver. Being a swash here I didn't think it really fit even though I can still track so I came up with Mystikel Bladestorm.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<DIV>i liked my EQ1 rogue name of "Grifter" mostly because of the pickpocketing ability and the fact that rogues are supposed to be "tricky" but the name was already in use by the time i made my swashy in this game. I made Savoir Faire instead =) But one thing i can tell you is, if you are not sure, don't give yourself a last name. I know in EQ1 they eventually made it so you could change a surname in game which was good because i was completely hammered when i gave my wizard the surname of "Dreamvacation" which was waaay to long considering the first name was already long being "Supervolt" that name running at you took up most of the screen, especially when i got AA and got some titles</DIV><p>Message Edited by Okaythen on <span class=date_text>02-18-2005</span> <span class=time_text>02:16 PM</span>
