How do you Name your characters?

[simpletom]

new druid team is called

mooviee
moobiee
moofiee
mooniee
mooriee

ne btw not tauren :P

not as fun as shaman are but im going to give this a go.

3x boomkins (or cats), a tree, and a bear. What's not to love?

Only bummer is moonkin aura's don't stack.

at the moment they are only level 14 so i have them all wrath spamming, works really well, miss the shamans res tho, its back to corpse running for me if someone dies. i love stacking the hots its the only way they heal, but normally they kill everything before it reaches them, and makeing the most of the mistletoe 20 spirt buffs, hopefully ill grab a few more before they are removed.

im planning on sticking with balance spec for the time being, i will look into specing one to tank and heal alot later on, but instance grinding is whats killed my intrest in boxing with my other boxing set ups so going to concentrate on quests this time around.

anyway ill keep you guys posted let you know what its like its still early days yet im only level 14 but so far petty good, just missing the pretty totems and draenei tails, they are very hypnotic.

[Ryan]

For whatever reason, I've always wanted a name that was simply my name, but Ryan is always taken. So I went and named my locks Ryanone, Ryantwo and Ryanthree. I find that this also helps tell people to whisper the main (Ryanone) most of the time. There are some that don't get it and still whisper Ryantwo or Three.

I ended up transfering my main 70 over to the same server, and renamed him Ryanoh, cause I thought Ryanzero sounded silly.

[Ughmahedhurtz]

I try to name my guys something amusing or based on a theme. Some of the really good ones are usually taken but there's quite a few that work.

[Skuggomann]

I named my guyes:

Cloneone
Clonetwo
Clonethree
Clonefour

and put them in a guidl called: Icelandic Clone Squad

and lvl 19 warlock twinks:

Qdot
Qupp
Qand
Qrun


XD

[Kyudo]

Naming has always been somewhat of an inspiration thing for me.

Whatever takes my fancy when I'm creating the character. My 1st shaman was called Muramar, cos I liked the sound of it, it sounded kind of mean, and therefore by evolution, the rest of the team have ended up as follows:

Muramar
Murmarina
Murmarula
Murmalena
Murmanela

It just sort of felt right. My chars tend to be female, and I use latin type sounds.

Celestara - mage
Satanara - lock
Floriana - Drood

And bizarrely - Paleforth, cos it sounds like a monk's name for my male priest.

I spent an age thinking up my name for my Hunter, as I wanted something that matched with lots of pets. His original name was Rockie, with pets named Horror, Bulwinkle and Balboa. Sad... I know. Had to change it when I transferred server though, as Rockie was taken :S

[Gallo]

I did the cardinal sin of multiboxing and did the cheesiest names for my box shaman group...

Xxearth
Xxfire
Xxwind
Xxwater
Xxheart

I get a lot of captain planet jokes when i roll into stormwind

[zanthor]

Zanthor... was the name of a D&D character I rolled up when I was about 9...

Aeacus & Letum came from when I rolled a PK/Rogue in UO named Aeacus Letum (Clicky for meanings) Coincidentally I felt guilty every time I PK'd so I flipped to a noto-killer and had hours upon hours of fun stealing from PK's, ganking them and selling their gear back to them... the best kill ever was when a guy tried to gank a naked me... I stole his arrows, so he put his sword on which left his bow in his backpack, so I stole his bow... and killed him with it.

Tiscanul was a conglomerate from my Sony Multiscan UL monitor... Coincidentally it is an anagram for Lunatics...

Leu Natic was a character I made in Asherons Call... later utilized as Natic, Leunatic, and many other variants.

Gnusmas is simply Samsung backwords...

Darke is an account I was given...

Aazan, Bazan & Cazan came from everyone calling me Zan, so I figured when I was making a bunch of new Zan's... Azan, Bzan and Czan seemed too meh, so I added a vowel to make them roll easier.

[Zoroaster]

I already had my warrior and shaman at 70, so didn't really have the option of making all 5 similar.

For my 3 mages went with: Zorlei, Zormei, Zornei.

Add in war/sham and you get Zoroaster, Zotem, Zorlei, Zormei, Zornei.

I didn't want to go with the Abox, Bbox, etc pattern. So played around with what names were available and came up with the above, I like it.

[Boom]

Main: Tari
Toon1: Târi
Toon2: Täri
Toon4: Tàri
Toon5: Tári

Woah... that's full of all kinds of win. I never thought of doing that.

I am a pvper, so I had the same strategy as stated othere places in this thread. I want it to be hard to call out a target. So I used the same first and last letters, all the same length, and they seem to be pronounced the same way.

Thunduh
Thundah
Thnudah
Thundeh
Thundoh

But wow... using â, ä, à and á would be PERFECT. Because folks can't type those (typically) they'd never get tells. The only concern I'd have is giving your opponents the ability to say "Get the one without an accent over it!"

Go watch the video some arena team posted when they ran into Ellay. They include the vent chat. They eventually say "Which Shaman should we go for? lets kill uh... Aelli... the simplest of them... the A-e-l-l-i" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pRwosHrsGNE)

This just proves the technique works. If Ellay had the habit of just rushing in, (which would be bad for shaman) they'd never get a target.

I plan to make a 5 hunter group next... I'll use the accent technique this time.

Boom
