    1. who cares?
    take a look at the trade channel in WoW, how much creativity can you expect from these guys?
    I normally wouldn't if it were honestly just a chance thing that someone came up with the same name as me.

    I would be ok if someone named an alt after me as a joke or whatever. Or even a hunter pet.

    When I find a guild that contains 3 of my characters' names and one of my boyfriend's, it makes me wonder if they're not trying to just pay homage to a kewl sounding name or pretend to actually BE me. It's a very creepy form of identity theft. Of course, I don't know 'em so I can't tell if that's what they're actually up to, but it's creepy nonetheless.



    And "Vyndree" isn't that common (I've never read Forgotten Realms). The 2 characters besides the imposter on wowarmory are both me (the one on Archi and Mal'Ganis). There are 10 "Vandree"s, none of which are 60. *shrug*

    My Rouge's name on Duskwood was Wynd. After my guild got a few server first kills I started to notice a whole bunch of Wyndx, Wyndy, Wyndi, Xwynd, etc. I was like ...wtf?

    Mine Is fairly common, I chose it while setting up a PVP group in shadowbane (Centaur with Windlords, ZOMG OP) & never thought how much of a pain it would be in other games. There are 2 on these boards alone.

    Pre-TBC (and boxing) I was shocked when I saw another orc warrior (the same as my main) with the exact same name, while in AV. So I created characters on all the other servers on my battlegroup, to prevent this from happening (as much)

    Fast forward a year, time to fire up a new team. Log onto account 5, hit the random name button on a new server and what do I get? Gelaa....... *sigh* Ok, so I click the button to accept my fate, and get - Name is already in use. WTF? Gahhhhhhh!!!!

    <---- original

    ...and by original... I mean you can't even find it using google. Not even on the spanish sites. I love how google comes up w/ the "Did you mean: farolito". No I didn't, but thank you for my next name.

    Bah.. who needs a random name generator? Make your own random name generator...

    It's a simple process:

    1) Close your eyes
    2) Roll your face across the keyboard
    3) Insert vowels between consonants.
    4) Presto! You have a unique name.


    Vyndree, looks like a frame-job in the workings...

    In game: "Yes, I'm the real Vyndree... go look at my site. My BF? He's in my guild too. My alts? See. Trust me now? Okay.. now, do this for me......."

    I'd be concerned...

    I came up with Pyrostasis when I was 15 the day before I got the internet so Id have a screen name. Took me and my friend about 2 hours to come up with some names we liked. I enjoyed making molotov cocktails out some cheap cologne my grandparents gave me every year, but Pyro was to popular, however Fire in a permanent state, or stasis, seemed to give it a unique spin.

    So we came up with Pyrostasis.

    I have used this name for over 10 years now, and just last year was rather saddened to find a euro rock band has formed with the same name. Hate to wish anything bad on anyone, but I hope they dont blow up into a huge success, as everyone will just assume I stole it =(

    I demand royalties from crayola for using the colors of the rainbow.

    The single box characters I play are named
    Roirrawa
    Namahsa
    Eugora
    Tseirpa
    Nidalapa
    Egama

    Although most of those characters have been in deep hibernation for almost a year now, but Roirrawa and Eugora are still quite active.
    Also my guild bank's guild name is Dliuga. 5 candy points to anyone who can figure out my naming scheme. /grin.
