Title: Where do your names come from? Post by: dulcineea on June 26, 2004, 08:09:51 AM There are people who take name documenting very seriously and try to keep their names as fantasy and guild/character oriented as possible. There are others without even the slightest interest in this area :).
So, what type are you, and what does your name stand for/come from/ mean? Title: Where do your names come from? Post by: Smudge on June 26, 2004, 08:33:05 PM I think Question of the Day/Week for April 25th has a lot of replies from people that would somewhat answer your question, Dulcineea. I'll admit my own name can barely be called fantasy, since I wasn't really aware of that "rule" when I created Smudge. My other characters either have names that relate to their guild or purpose, since I was slightly wiser when I made them. But I don't really feel like sharing their names at the moment, so I'll just leave it nice and vague like that. :D

:twisted: I'll tell you this was a name that I used "back in the day" when I played WFRP. Can't take full credit for it as I chose the syllable components from a list intended for random generation of NPC names. The down side of that decision was that a few years later a supplement to the game had an NPC with the same name!!!! :cry: Ah well, I am still the only Yavathol in Nanny! :wink: Title: Where do your names come from? Post by: Maggs on June 30, 2004, 08:08:54 AM Maggs is my pet female horse.
Azzer is a abbreviation of my male horses name. Vicci was chosen to tease Mistress. Paula is my dressage instructor. Sherry was the girl that persuaded me to me ride horses. Maggi was a play on Maggs and was supposed to be come a sym on death. Not very medieveal I'm afraid :/ Title: Where do your names come from? Post by: Qwer on July 01, 2004, 03:46:56 PM void?

That is so bad. I love it. It reminds me when Beldin and I created the character Chaosdemon so that we could wield the chaosblade from Padrone's quest. :twisted: /Snafu :D Title: Where do your names come from?

Post by: Snafu on July 11, 2004, 03:28:11 PM Gotta love mischievous names. There have been several chars through the years as 'All', 'Everyone' etc which would play havoc with the feelings, not to mention chars with names that are feelings or partial name that goes to a feeling. I'll never forget the fun I had when (for a short time) 'poo' was a feeling in Barbers. You'd be amazed at the amount of people who used it when they meant Poogus. *snicker evilly*
/Snafu :D Title: Where do your names come from? Post by: Qwer on July 11, 2004, 03:44:36 PM It happened to me several times with Panic online on some guild line.
Also Potion was nice, a friend made it and he said Rowen died once on green because of him. I am not sure wether this is true but it sounds kewl. |
