If the character has a name, I always use that, otherwise, if it's a game with a rich background/history I really want to get immersed in and all that, I try to pick a lore-friendly name. Like in Elder Scrolls games, I'll follow the naming conventions of whatever race I'm playing as. A name that fits in their world so people aren't calling me "Karen the Dragonborn", "Bob the Harbinger" or something. :P

And then in games with no obvious naming conventions in their world and no default character name, like Pokemon or Animal Crossing, I'll just use my own name or Juno. If it's a boy character I'll pick a generic male name.

Killer150 or Hitman 150

Both are very simple names and quite fits for FPS games.

I woul like to use my name in story games because I like to be myself in game.

Most of the time if the character has a name and a backstory and such or is popular, I'll name it the name it has. If it's a mute character or has pretty much nonexistent backstory (like Pokemon games) I just name them "Quil".

Well, I mostly used Zero, Raven, or Kyle for an "English" Games, and Yuuki, Shiro, or Setsu for a "Japanese" Games, though in some case I would just find some cool-sounding names from the Internet.

It seems a lot of ppl here tend to stick to one or a few names which is interesting. I never choose the same name twice though (unless I've lost my file haha). To me each character is unique. Plus there are just so many good names out there! :t173:

I first named my LoZ: Minish Cap game MEGAN9, as I was nine years old, and my name is Megan. I am not good with names.

It's either Electricbluewolf or PrincessMegnu, even in serious games. That hardcore

I recently made a dual-wielding katana Dex-build character in Dark Souls 2.

Her name? "RNJR Weeaboo"
