Default Epic Naming Thread.

In MMO's you get a chance to decide something that is in most cases decided for you before you are even born.

I am entirely indecisive in creating a character name for Aion.

Please use this thread to discuss ideas or suggestions for helping me and others come up with unique and creative names.

Feel free to share the history behind your current or past mmo names.

In world of warcraft I was Arcturusx taken from "Arcturus Mengsk" a starcraft character and in double homage to a legendary Avant-garde Black Metal band.

Arcturus would make a great name for an aion character but seeing so many Arc**** names in beta and people realizing just how cool of a shortening arc is I get a nasty taint with the unoriginality of having arc in my name. Too bad there are a few people in our guild now who will be calling me arc in vent out of shear force of habit.

All in all I will be reserving the name Arcturus just to well "reserve it".

Ganja, taken from the slang term originating in africa for marijuana. Ganja-God has been my screenname for everything that doesnt bleep out Ganja since the beginning of time. If I can't pick Ganja i'll be going with Zyrio based after my WoW character name that I used for 5 years.

Well Malcon comes from the very first Paladin I ran in DnD.. yes back in 1980. I was looking for a good name and it seemed to fit. I have used many versions of it and almost always use old character names or names of those close to me. just easiest to remember.

For names, I either go with personalities or funny stuff. Here are a few examples of the names I've tried out in various MMOs.

Overpower
Leethax
Someone
Tigeruppercut
Windwaker
Dragonbreath
Ninjaturtle
Manlydress
Incoming
Yurdumb
Doodwth/Doodwtf


And now...Powerup! Since I'm a Chanter that buffs (powers up) people. C'mon, just imagine if you got owned by someone named Manlydress or if you hear someone say "SOMEONE HEAL ME!!!" and you're name is Someone and you're not a healer

...I'm not weird.

Me and my brother would do 2s in pink dresses. I was prot holy and he was some sort of interrupt combat rogue. We would drag out matches to 45 minutes long. Our team name was "is not good at pvp" we got to 1800 ranking.

Does any one have any suggestions of names I could use?
