Wow, I'm surprised nobody has came up w/ a thread like this. Well, I'll go first.

My main Atm is c0wsie, I came across this name after taking a break at 04 and starting again in 06 then I made a new account, I was drinking milk at the time while making my new character. I was totally stumped and the ones i did like and try were already taken. So i pondered and pondered until my eyes hit my milk and thought.. cowsie? I tried cowsie at first but it was taken, so then with a change of letter to number I got c0wsie. That's my story.

Oh and if your wondering, you could do your main + alts if your really bored and it could be short and sweet or make it a freaking long adventure.
So yeah, just remember back then. :D

My name is Japanese for -> Pink, Strawberry, and Ichi-Go - "One" "Protector"
People who know me on Loki and heard me on vent call me Keanu -_-
So here's a link for them -> One Protector -> The One -> Neo -> The Matrix.

you happy? :(

Oh I'm also named after an anime character. Figure out the rest.

Shiopi = Siopao

night_knight
10-09-2007, 07:12 PM
Nightblade is my favorite class for my favorite character in Seiken Densetsu 3, and back then I often put underscores in my character names, so I ended up with night_blade. I wanted to make a more knight-like knight than night_blade (knights shouldn't suck as bad as he did), and I was lazy so I named him night_knight.

Pa.rabola
10-09-2007, 07:35 PM
Before the name change, I let my friend name my character and so it became "Pa-chan". She thought it was adorable. At that time, I really didn't care about the name. However, after living with that name for 3 years and wanting to change it forever, I realized I had to make something so people could still recognize me.

Math class -> "Pa.rabola".

Iluvatar
10-09-2007, 07:56 PM
Eru Ilúvatar is Arda's god at Tolkien's books. Elves know him just for Ilúvatar (meaning father of everything). Who actually chose this name was my friend, while we're trying to create a "exorcist" priest (it was earlier when we started playing, so we didn't know anything about builds lol). After trying a lot of things comming from Exorcist: The Begginnig movie, he saw The Silmarillion book and remembered this name.

As for Delirium, it was a mix of a random music I can't remember right now, some stupid videos and a Pepsi's overdose. And I thought it sound cool, so yeah. Gotta use the dot 'cause there already was a char named Delirium.

The knight I was supposed to do would be named Benawi, a character from the anime called Utawarerumono. But there was already someone with this nick, and I totally don't know what name I should use. =\ Cannibal Anthem wouldn't be good, right?

Awake
10-09-2007, 08:32 PM
Let's see if I can remember it all (and I'm sure there's been a thread like this before)

Firefly* - A song by Breaking Benjamin. Not among my favourite bands but when I created her I had had so many hunters I was desperately seeking something new. My previous hunter was called Juiceflow, so she had quite a reputation to live up to. :p
Vacant - Beautiful song by my favourite band, Dream Theater.
Breathe - A song by The Prodigy.
Anna Lee - Another song by Dream Theater.
acidjazzed evening - I don't know much about the origins of the song but it's a sweet instrumental track my friend sent me.
Pristine - Ironic name for a Dancer, also based on "Pristina" by Faith No More.
Euphoria - Partly "holy crap, this name isn't taken!", partly based off the line "euphoria fixation" in a Dream Theater song.
And that's just for Sakray. I think I have the name anonymous-chan on either Chaos or Loki. I was gonna make her my vend merch. :3 Other names I have on the main servers would be SkyIine, Disintegration, Sunna & Idolize. I'm surprised those names weren't taken to begin with.

I have a couple of accounts, and many characters, some of them half-remembered, but here goes...

My Battlesage is named Pepper' cuz while she's not so powerful as a true melee character, nor as powerful as a wiz, she's perky and hot on the tongue... or something,,... well, I like the name, so there. Side-note, her party name is always "Power & Soul" bcus of her strong melee and above average magic damage.

My magic ninja is named Yukino' - from the anime karekano. Just a nice name. I think it has something to do with "snow" in Japanese, which is appropriate cuz she's primarily an ice type.

My alchemist is named Daenerhys, from a book in the Song of Ice and Fire series by Gearge RR Martin. Again, just a nice name I came across, though its supposed to mean "dragon reborn" or something similar...or maybe that was just how the story went...

My assassin is named Chibisuke - after a dragon in the kid's anime "Dragon Drive". It means "runt" or "little kid".

That's all i remember for now ^^

Hadas
10-09-2007, 09:54 PM
Hadas (Wizard) is my Hebrew name. A hadas is the branch of a myrtle tree and is one of the four species used during the special waving ceremony on the Jewish holiday of Sukkot. It represents a person who possesses good deeds but does not study Torah.

Dakarah (Assassin) is a grammatically strange conjugation of the Hebrew verb for "(to) stab" accepting a singular feminine noun.

Blackwell Corporation (Brewer Alchemist) is named for Emily Blackwell, one of the first women in the world to receive an M.D.

Aryeh (Knight) Hebrew word for "lion". This is actually a male name, but I think it sounds cool, so I use it anyway.

Nazirah (Battle Acolyte) refers to the Nazirites, a class of Jewish ascetics.

Rabbi Hadas (FS Acolyte) should be self-explanatory. I felt that being that I am a Jew but not a Jewish priest and there being no way for me to become one, using the title "priest" is inappropriate. Anyone can be a rabbi however, and so.... Yeah.

Maluna
10-09-2007, 10:08 PM
Maluna - [HBP] character from my comic book
Tatenia - [Gyp] same. From same comic book- they're my only girl characters in it though
Tweedeldee - [Alch] character from Kiddy Grade (anime). Not from Alice in Wonderland
Darwin - [Vani] Scientist/Philosophist who came up with the theory of evolution.
Halloween - [sage] It's my favorite holiday. ever.
Malzilla - [dd sin] ver. of Maluna + Godzilla
Malcakes - [hunter] ver. of Maluna + babycakes
Tweedeldon't - [bs] ver. of Tweedeldee but I thought I'd make it funny instead of ending in dee or daa or doo. I also fail at ou'ing on any bs I ever made so it fits.

Meiji
10-09-2007, 10:08 PM
Meiji is an old, old nickname of mine that has very little to do with the candy company/emperor/shrine. On an old set of forums I used to go to, my nickname was "Mage Goddess," and my friends there called me Mage, or Magee... but Magee can be read like Maggie, so my friend came up with Meiji for me and it just sort of stuck.

Funkies
10-09-2007, 10:09 PM
I'll just name the ones I remember easily.

FunkaticOne - First character, noob name 'cuz I'm too cheap to change it to anything else. I had no idea you could use spaces and the like for names back almost 3 years ago. I'll change it once I 99 or something.

Ethereal Phoenix - Ethereal with heavenly/celestial in mind, phoenix 'cuz they're awesome. It is made of fire, rebirth, and ownage... basically.

Autumn Merit - In-game wife's alchemist was named Winter Harvest, I think after Tales of Symphonia. Another friend of ours wanted to make an alchemist as well, so the three of us decided upon Autumn Merit and Spring Annex. Different seasons, somewhat similar last names... blah blah blah.

Moonlit Petal - 'Cuz she's ME, and... delicate or something. I liked the white hair, so I needed something to match it. Seemed okay to me, so... it's kinda obvious. o_o

Adrienne Pixie - In-game wifey liked the name, so I looked it up on the intarweb. It's a French name, which is ultimately the feminine form of a masculine Roman name of a city and emperor. I dug it, so we stuck Pixie on the end 'cuz... Super Novices are... fairies... I guess. o_o

Odelia Pixie - Not only is is pleasant to say... it's also full of nunly awesomeness. Based off an old German masculine name that meant "wealth/fortune", some nun who was supposedly blind was baptized and gained sight in the 8th century. SO IT'S A GIRLY NAME... it just has rich connotations... I think. Since this Super Novice was gonna be a vendor, it sorta fit.

Adrienne and Odelia are like cousins... or something.

Okay... that's all I'm gonna bother with. I could explain the rest, but I don't feel like it at the moment.

kei
10-09-2007, 11:32 PM
Started off beta as mc-kei, short for MerChant-kei, then i got ac-kei and sm-kei for ArCher-kei and SwordsMan-kei.

when p2p came, i'm keeping my tradition of using the first few letters of the class for my name. As I was thinking of a named starting with MER, Meroko popped up as full moon wo sagashite was a hot manga at that time (but got dropped soon), and since it was dropped for a while, I forgot the real name of Meroko and named Mereko instead.

Now, its unique. though i get mixed up with Merokos alot.

Having 3 accounts, Alaskan is my main. Then there is Eskimo as my female-counterpart account. Third is Alaskimo. It's like Alaskan and Eskimo combined.

Origin = I live and grew up in Alaska.

raklaron
10-10-2007, 05:21 AM
raklaron : Dont have a meaning...popped in my mind
Windmaster : Wohoo my 1st rogue was an agi freak.
Aerith Aerial : Aerith from FF, and she was an agi freak too.

raviene = furry artist
aries` = just liked it, also my zodiac
ascend = needed a name for an alch, came up with descend, thought it sounded too scene so made an alch named that on scyber's acc and made mine ascend

After Life
10-10-2007, 11:05 AM
Leroux was my bloodname from the clan I was in back when I played Mech Commander Gold online.

Demonology I just thought was interesting so I used it.

After Life......hell if I know. I just started using it.

luix
10-10-2007, 11:34 AM
My cousin's nickname is Andrix, his name is André.
A friend of ours started playing RO with him, he named himself Bezix - his last name is Bez - to follow suit.
I joined later and simply changed a 'z' to an 'x' and got to hang around with the cool kids.
All my other characters were based around a nickname my father had when he was a surfer. Since i started surfing, i've used it. It's Pato, duck in portuguese.

Family related names ftw.

Thyrial
10-11-2007, 11:28 AM
Oh boy here we go...

Chaos

Thyrial Shadowwalk - Name of a character I designed a LONG time ago. His story is rather long so to put it simply he was a half elven assassin with the ability to basically turn his emotions off and on as well as the inherited family ability to walk through shadows. He's always been my favorite out of the many characters I've created so I tend to use his name for games and such. Also seemed fitting for my sin/sin x chars.

Carca Varethwa - Only sin I've made NOT named Thyrial and is actually the name in Quenya for Thyrial's sword. It means Fang of Vareth or Vareth's Fang.

Syrus Darkblade - Another character I created long ago. A human mercenary who was originally a knight. He later became a king though it was mostly just a title because he was only king cause he married the queen and she wasn't about to let him take over lol. Also was my favorite character before I really developed Thyrial so it's a char I always have a soft spot for.

Sakray

Thyrial, Thyrial Shadowwalk - See Above

Damien Shadowfist - Really just made the name mostly out of the blue. Though at the time me and my (at that point) fiance had been discussing names for if we had a boy and we both liked Damien so I had it on my mind.

Tyrian Angelblade - My ME priest... Tyrian I just randombly picked but Angelblade was a family name in a bit of an RO story I had been wroking on about my Crusader which was name Azrael Angelblade. There were 3 brothers in the family... Azrael, Tyrian and Damien (a combo monk I once had) all of which served the church in different ways.

Rest of my names are mostly random or are Quenya for (Something) of Vareth.

Cute Wittle Corgi
10-11-2007, 12:20 PM
Locke! - I was excited to name this character, also FF6
Beans and Cornbread - was at east prontera on chaos at the time and noticed a certain gulid no joke
Runic! - old name of my paladin on diablo2 (not the skill by Celes)
Cousin Rakuen - bastard family member who is not an aco class but a ninja ('sup GG)
a wizard lmao - best wizard on iRO chaos (R.I.P)

Foul Play
10-11-2007, 01:02 PM
Foul Play - as a rogue, many accuesed me of foul play when using divests.
FouI PIay - i liked the name so i reused it.
FouI Play - again
Foul PIay - and again.

Chidori
10-11-2007, 02:16 PM
Chidori - Naruto manga from like 4-5 yrs ago.
Kazuma Akimoto - main character of s-CRY-ed, though I added a last name to it. I've been wanting to nc it to Kazuma Torisuna though.
Senkei, Byakurai, Grimmjow Jaggerjack (haha i got it first.) - all Bleach stuff
Chisano - combination of several names.
Eraser Rain - a line from an awesome song
Zin'rokh(, Destroyer of Worlds) - best name for a weapon ever.

yeah I'm basically an animu fag

Feint
10-11-2007, 02:29 PM
- R e i n a - : Taken from FF6(Reina is also known as Lenna, depending on the translation), my favorite Final Fantasy, and by far one of the most awesome games I ever played. Hence I loved the Final Fantasy 6 remix music Doddler used in one of his videos posted somewhere on these forums. Later on changed gender and got a male sinx with a great name /selfown

Hurricane : A joke LONG ago. Back then Andre Card used to be something great, and I wanted to create a forger and make elemental weapons with the Hurricane prefix in them. Lame enough I ended up using this nick for the next 3 years. And I still do sometimes when I don't feel creative enough.

Feint : No idea, I just got the idea out of nowhere and it didn't sound as pathetic as most of my earlier character names so I used it.

Eclipse1
10-11-2007, 02:29 PM
Eclipse: it doesn't have much behind, does it? the 1 however takes a little bit more...

Eclipse was already my nickname (for untold reasons) some years before i've to surf the net. Then, when i had my first chance to go to chat rooms and use IM to chat with my friends, i decided to use the same nick i've already had. However, in the first chat room i went, Eclipse was already taken as a nick. So what i did? just put Eclipse1. And that is the stupid story... so far since that moment i've always had Eclipse1 as my nick. Some people refer me as "Eclipse" and ignore the 1, but remember, that is part of the nick as well.

Nikki Slash
10-11-2007, 02:45 PM
Nikki Slash: from Chrono Cross. The character was a guitarist, so I thought it would fit for my Bard. "Nikki" was his name on the US version, and "Slash" on the JP version.

Holy Order Ky: those who play Guilty Gear series will know this one ^^'

Hankie Pankie
10-11-2007, 03:01 PM
Tons of Variations of Sly: Don't even remember why I picked this as my original name base, but I did.

Hankie Pankie: Started my long line of pervy names.

Fellatio: for the lulz.

Wet Dreams: because having one every now and then isn't such a bad thing.

Innuendo: making one of these every know and then is fun.

Fruit Cake.: Everyone's got a little fruit inside of them.

Pedobait!: Baby bard, 'nuf said.

I can't remember the rest. ; ;

starie
10-11-2007, 03:40 PM
Nameless Star: It was my aim name and I couldn't think of anything when I was creating a character. It was my first character name and I never thought I'd be playing this game past the trial period back in 2004.

starie: It was a nickname given to me by one of the first Defiance members that I met while in Chaos Elite. It just kinda stuck since then.

Ianthe: Violet flower. The name also has ties to Greek mythology.

Satellites: The name of one of my favorite songs, September- Satellites (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3HvIZKacw0)

Raeka: spanish name meaning "beautiful" or "unique"

Zyanya: In Nahuatl (Aztec language), it means forever/always.

final fantasy 5 you mean? of course you do.

Lupus
10-11-2007, 05:13 PM
ZeroCrash = my original character, Crash is a nickname cause I crashed into a stationary truck while going down a hill on my bike, Zero just cause I like the sound of it and multiple other things.

Lupus Redomo = Wolf Tamer roughly in latin, I created the name after the announcement of homunculus in RO. I just kinda chose words that seemed sorta appropriate for an alchemist and after translating them and coming up with different things, I chose that as the name.

Lupus Exuro - My TKM - Wolf Burn roughly in latin


Note: I'm not a furry. Heh.

Xellie
10-11-2007, 05:18 PM
hmm lets see.

Neko Xellie - combination of two things.
a/ my BF was trying to teach himself japanese (you know, like people do) and thought that neko was pronounced "nico" and my RL name being very similar.
b/ Xellie - I used to take part in an RPG, like I donno.... 5 or 6 years ago? My character was Xelloss (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xellos) from Slayers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slayers). I was asked to do that because I apparently I acted like him before I'd even seen the anime. The nickname stuck D:
c/ Neko Xellie was created to hunt kittybands in payon caves.

Xellie - Made this one maybe 2 years after I made Neko Xellie. Got tired of the wapanese connection the Neko Xellie name had.

Super Xellie - Because I'm a copycat.

Not Xellie - The master of Valhalla guild is Not Xellie. Truth. I don't often play this char myself, even though its mine.
(any other not xellie, also not xellie, isn't xellie, Possibly Xellie, etc, are guildies who were tired of everyone thinking everyone in guild is me D: )

Zelas Metallium (or any combination thereof) my female account - Xelloss' demonlord boss thing.

All other characters (Sherra, Grou) are related to almost unknown vague Slayers characters. Since I stopped watching slayers though...

Viking Kitten - http://users.wolfcrews.com/toys/vikings/ (ancient joke)

Lil Wolf / Chiisai Ookami - my priestesses. literally translated one from the other.

Pleiades - Constellation.

VaIhaIIa - lol

Shazuki Zsu / Sakkitta - Randomly original names.

Drama Maker - Named him after his job. Never levelled him to sinx though.

Nerf SD - It's a wizard. Go figure.

Fishpoo, be gone! - my CP bard. See, Fishpoo is shit that trails you everywhere. I wanted to leave a message for people that stalked us. They didn't like it....

I have too many chars. =/

Lutz
10-11-2007, 05:22 PM
"Condoleezza" and "Pedo-bait" are my favorites so far.

Lutz-sensei: like, two years ago I tried naming my mage "Lutz" (the wizard from Phantasy Star, first rpg I ever played), but it was already taken so I had to add a suffix. I still have the character to this date (it's a HW now), but also made a few variations afterwards: Lutz Inverse (battle sage), Lutz Analogue (super novice) Lutz Memory (AGI wiz and also the name of an item from Phantasy Star 4). After the merge in bRO I was finally able to create a character named Lutz ^^ (it's an Esma SL).

Other characters - Les Soldats (assassin), Laughingstock (bard), Schwarze Katze (alchemist), Sigmund (filir), Omega Blue (gunslinger)

Recently I made a second account with female characters: my favorite at the moment is an archer called "OMG Shoes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCF3ywukQYA)".

I tend to prefer full names (first name--surname); single nouns are usually already taken.

Dynamo
10-12-2007, 12:44 AM
Dynamo sounds like "Strenght", however, I chose it just because I like it.
When I created my Novice I don't knew the Lord Knight's skill "Spear Dynamo".

Nhoj
10-12-2007, 01:03 AM
///.Nh0j,\\\.........lleps ti sdrawkcab dna taht si ym eman, the added characters is just to annoy people so that its hard for them to pm me.

Marisa
10-12-2007, 01:46 AM
Wishing Star - Rinoa's second best Limit Break (best one was Invincible Moon, makes the last battles stupid easy). And much as certain people like to think, I am not Nameless Star (or any other Star out there).

Karinui/Marisa` - First one was meant to be a play on Kairuni's name since he's the main person I level with (and meant to be annoying to tell the difference in who was talking). Changed it to Marisa` on Chaos and when I came back from Chaos. Marisa is from Touhou. And I am not Marisa- the monk from EA.

ButterfIy - Because I like the song Butterfly. Was amazed that this wasn't taken already.

Amaya` - Random name I liked.

Mystia`/Kikuri - More Touhou names.

Mocha
10-12-2007, 02:53 AM
Mocha

Caffč Mocha:
Rich, full-bodied Starbucks espresso combined with our proprietary bittersweet mocha syrup and steamed milk. Topped with a cloud of whipped cream.

Go try one... Seriously.

Satine
10-12-2007, 02:54 AM
Satine - named for the main character in the movie Moulin Rouge! :]

Elsebet - Many years ago when I played Utopia I had to come up with a name to call the ruler of my kingdom -- so I named her Elsebet, after Báthory Erzsébet, the blood countess [couldn't use foreign characters so I had to modify it a little]
>> Betsie came from a thread where you had to nickname the poster before you -- I was posting as Elsebet, so someone suggested Betsie -- it stuck.
>> Elsie was also a shortened version of Elsebet

Novala - named for the author of Shimotsuma Monogatari and Soleilnuit [Takemoto Novala] -- Novala can also be spelled 'nobara' which is Japanese for 'wild rose'

Dawl - the smallest or weakest piglet in a litter, pigs are my favourite animals

Velouria - named after the Pixies song

Piggy - I like pigs

Allie - it's my name

Alqua - named after the hunter legend, my leveling partner and close friend Misko -- I took it on Iris so nobody else could.

Alinka - my nickname from Alqua [little Allie, essentially]

Feint
10-12-2007, 03:10 AM
final fantasy 5 you mean? of course you do.

Lol fail. Yes I do. I was thinking about FF6 when I mentioned the song Doddler used in his video and somehow managed to mix it up. I actually wanted to mention both, FF5 and FF6, but totally screwed it up it seems. Anyway yeah, Reina is from FF5 =_=.

Saishu Hane
10-12-2007, 11:50 AM
all the char names are from a story im writing (but got lazy actually -writing- years ago but havent stopped thinking about it)

Saishu Hane - the God of battle (yah, doesnt fit him since he's pure forge) but he -does- forge his own weapons

Ken Shujin - main char of the story and the char i used to use all the time

Gochek Shujin - Ken Shujin being possessed by Gochek

lol been awhile since ive even been able to go on RO so i cant quite recall the names of my other chars.

Simple.
10-12-2007, 12:36 PM
I'm not asian, so my names fail at being cool in this game.

:(

Cubical
10-12-2007, 12:57 PM
compounded words for my names, used japanese names as refferances. Then put 3 and 2 different letters together to make the name.

Ri-Kao
Kay-or
Dai-Kou
Fuy-Gi

shink
10-12-2007, 12:58 PM
Shink-Its the sound of a sword being drawn
Friar Laurence-the priest who gave the poison to juliet(hate that play)
Hand-Banana-He is a yellow dog that looks like Master Shakes hand from Aqua teen hunger force that tries to rape Carl.

Mireille
10-12-2007, 01:21 PM
Mireille - It's close to my real name, and I also took influences from .Hack//DUSK. I'm still surprised I got the name; I only started playing a month before P2P on Loki. 10k people on Loki server, and no one thought of Mireille first? When Sakray first came out, I tried to grab the name, but apparently someone else grabbed it first.

Mireille Elric - lol. I don't really want to explain this one. Kudo's to anyone who guesses what class this character is. I wanted to get a name change, but Gravity won't let me because someone else is using the e-mail address I used to register my account.

Einstelle - short for Einstellen, which is short for sich einstellen. Since it's not a Japanese name, it's not cool for RO : (

Mike
10-12-2007, 03:56 PM
Saatchi - as in Saatchi & Saatchi, the advertising company. They make some of my favourite commercials.

Clarisse - I got Clarice stuck in my head after watching Silence of the Lambs but I liked how Clarisse looked, and Clarice was taken anyway.

Samaire - My first female character so I was panicking trying to figure out how to come up with a feminine, lesser-known name. Then I remembered Samaire Armstrong who used to be on The O.C.

Winterland - A New Zealand band.

Xavierre - Named after a friend.

Aquarium - Heather's TKM is Goldfish, so naturally my TKM should be Aquarium.

Garfunkel - Named after Art Garunkel from Simon & Garfunkel.

Uhm... I really liked comics as a kid, and I still have an extensive collection packed away in storage. I liked the super heroes' nicknames, like batman was the Dark Knight, etc etc. So I came up with a Color + Action pattern for the characters. I shared this account long ago with my best friend in high school, he has since moved on. Also, before that I used to take my names on Chaos from Magic: the gathering characters! R.I.P. Barrin my old wiz <3.

IronChair
10-14-2007, 05:31 AM
I usually create my own character names, but in RO i decided otherwise.

IronChair - From an old PS 1 game, Legacy of Kain. I found the way he said Iron Sword, Iron Armor extremely amusing. I then wondered how it would sound like if he said Iron Table or Iron Chair even.

Iolaus - No, not the version from mythology who was Hercules's eromenos. He's my favourite character from the TV show Hercules who was played by Michael Hurst. I felt the role of a rogue suited him best.

Asclepius - Greek demigod of medicine/healing. Figured since one character was based off greek myth, why not my potter as well?

Sir Hikaru - Based off my real name, just in japanese.

Raspica

Inferno Nightblade
10-17-2007, 04:26 PM
Simply put, I like fire, and my character's surnames are often symbolic of their jobs.

My main (Inferno Nightblade) comes from the fact that he was originally a gank rogue, and is now a sword stalker. (Hence, his last name - he uses daggers.)

Lessee...Blazerunner, I thought sounded cool. It's not his "real" name - it's something he'd use to perform (he's a bard), but yeah.

Phoenix Pyre...Phoe was my first main - one of my friends on Gaia Online (stfu i was moar weeaboo back then) introduced me to the game. My Gaia name is Phoenix Goliathane - which is a portmanteau of two of my old Internet aliases (Phoenix Rising and Goliathan), so I reused the name when I made my first character on RO. After people complained it was hard to contact me, I changed the last name to something easier to spell.

Whitey Black...He has white hair, and he's a blacksmith. HURR HURR HURR.

Hurricane Fury...Originally, this guy was a monk - hence why I gave him the surname "Fury." Plus, you know you're going to get your ass kicked when a dude named Hurricane Fury rolls up. When I remade him into a priest, I kept the name.

Firestarter Black...I like the name Firestarter, and I gave him the same last name as my smith because they're supposed to be brothers. (Originally, it started out as a gunslinger named Firestarter Nightblade - my stalker's brother - but then I got bored of gunner.)

Ryuujin Anei...Back when ninjas came out, a lot of my friends made ninjas with the last name "Anei." (Shadow, I believe, in Japanese.) I joined the boat, and his first name translates to "Dragon King," I believe. hurr hurr hurr. I would have just named him "Ryuu," (Dragon) but that sounded weird.

ReturnOfTheMack = from a song i heard a few years back
ThePhatAlchemist = see ThePhatMerchant

how creative can i be right? ;-p good times.

TehPantsu/Teh Pantsu - Used to play CS as ThePants. A clan I was in told me to leet up my name, so made it Teh. Eventually evolved from Pants to Pantsu.

PantsuPie - Dunno just seemed right for my blacksmith.

Rainy Day Man/King Endymion - Sailor Moon related. The first is a song from episode 43 about Jupiter and her childhood friend guy. King Endymion is Mamoru/Darian's name in Crystal Tokyo blah blah. YES, I like Sailor Moon!

I Rove Rena - Fobby expression of my love to my girlfriend!

Samias
10-20-2007, 06:05 PM
Samias Dragonlord, my monk, was an old D&D character I had back when I was in like... grade 6-7. Tatayu, my wizard, is pulled from a little roleplaying fictions I did as the Ice Sorceress, and so is my assassin Katikara who is the Wind Sorceress. My supposedly main character is Xyra Fhoan, whose name is xylophone except I modified the syllables to form a cute girl's name. My little-known crusader is Anita Bangkok... if you can't figure this out I label you extremely dimwitted but I have had some people come and ask me if I was Thai. And... my knight is Xyra's Revenge which is basically a mash-up of my alchemist's and Finrod's names.

Regn
10-26-2007, 07:46 PM
Ah, Regn. There have been many ways to describe it, but only one definition.

Regn: The Swedish (though some have argued other languages) version of the word rain, which is one of my favorite weather phenomena. Rain looked dumb, but the Swedish version of it looked nice.

Regn is not the following.

Regen: Also meaning regeneration.
Reagan: That former actor and president of the United States.
Reign: One who rules. Also a name used by some assassin cross on Chaos.
Region: Do I need to keep going on with this?

As for other names...

Kafra Employee: Thought it would be a funny name to use.
George Harrison: One of the lesser known members of The Beatles. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, and Ringo Starr were already taken.

Master_Loki
10-28-2007, 08:17 AM
The whole objective of the characters I make in any game, is to cause mischief of some kind. Loki, the norse god of mischief, has always been one of my favorite characters since I was little, and Ragnarok, the story/game representing how Loki anally raped every norse god and their mother, seemed like the best place to use that name.

The name was going to be "Loki-sama", however, it seemed more original to name it "Master Loki". If left like that though, people might think I meant "master of loki", so I added the underscore. Even then, they still thought that. The "master" seemed fitting since he basically was the master of all the norse gods in the end, since he destroyed them all (him and his offspring), even if he also ended up dying as well (To Heimdall).

Another good thing was, people would call me master, and I'd call them slave.

The name Dark_Loki, has a similar meaning, except its meant to represent how evil I wanted the character to be, and how frustrating it would be to encounter/kill him on the battlefield (woe).

The rest of my characters didn't have as much thought put into them as those two did. I don't use those names in any other games.

William
10-28-2007, 02:54 PM
Schiavona - It just made sense, it's a type of sword used in Italy during the 17th and 18th century. (Originally battle priest, ME HP)
Threadless - threadless.com (http://www.threadless.com) I had just gone on a shopping spree there. (Alchemist)
BasiI - From the Great Mouse Detective! (Priest)
Pyrrhos - From Pyrrho, a Greek philosopher. (Rogue)

Saladin
10-28-2007, 04:01 PM
All my character names come from War of Genesis 3 and Magna Carta with the exception of two. I suppose you should avoid reading through if you are going to play them as there are some MAJOR spoilers ;[

Saladin: protagonist of War of Genesis 3
Demian: Albatini's new name after he is resurrected with the Black Blood
Calintz: protagonist of both Magna Carta games, though I made this name with the original in mind.
Agreian: antagonist of the second Magna Carta game.
Hydelloon: Christian's new name after he joins Ashurei.

Golden Fingers
11-03-2007, 03:05 AM
Pug the Magician - Pug was too short, so I needed to add a title. He was the main guy out of an old book, I forget the title now (wizard or some such). He's also the little green guy in FF games with the kitchen knife i think.

Hrothmund - He's named after a Giant axe in ES3:morrowind. Might also be in mythology at some point.

Golden Fingers - he/she is a thief with gank. Nuff said.

Asmosis - A random assortment of letters that is pronouncable after getting tired of trying various book/CCG names that are all taken (im not a big fan of symbol/number names).

All the other ones tend to have a short life expectancy as they get deleted to make way for new classes/builds :)

Dorai
11-03-2007, 03:43 AM
Saishou - wapanese for Another Victory and/or one's wife and mistress or something

Seriam - I have the name of a famous biblical seraphim so I raped the word seraphim into this

Geselle - Gisele is hot but I wanted a more german-ish sounding name pure coincidence that the name popped up in the Bleach anime.

Saizuki - Didn't know a name so I bothered a friend of mine to make up a name for it and it stuck?_?

Karone Ayo - Karone is the name of the pink power ranger in the "In Space" series 8D

Damon Ayo - MATT DAMOONNNN

iEndows - totally not an endow sage.

Chun-Li - I was young and a Street Fighter junkie, sue me.

Lacese - I wanted a name that had the word Lace in it ~

Ayame Nanashii

Annalynn - a name i made up that i really love.

SalehTheSage
11-07-2007, 07:36 PM
Lets see...

SalehTheNotSage - When I first started playing RO, I was playing Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, and one of my more favorite characters was a Sage-class character named Saleh, and I originally wanted to be a Sage. at job level 45 mage, I found out 2 things:

1) My build sucked at the time (2 STR, 17 LUK, lol.)
2) I didn't really like the sound of Sage skills.


So I remade and ended up going "Saleh...The...Sa-- wait. I'm not a Sage anymore." The first logical edit would be SalehTheWizard, but I felt like being stupid at the time. Thus, NotSagery embedded itself into RO.

Holy-Order Saleh - Guilty gear Accent Core was coming out, and I wanted to make a sin, so I was like "What if my hwizard was Sol? What would Order-Saleh be like?"

WaInut = huge Phantom brave Fan, and Walnut was my favorite character. Psycho Burgundy really seems similar to MR and GC, also.

Kiyoshi Atsumi = Tora-san, Wiki it, :V

Freddie I. Mercury (the I stands for Isawesome) - Queen Fan :V

Thats about it :V

Monkey D. Luffy
11-07-2007, 08:23 PM
Noxas = my real name backwards (saxon)
z i o n `= means like heaven or something

Lilly
11-07-2007, 09:50 PM
:o oh

Aeria Gloris = A phrase said in Inner Universe which is the opening song to Ghost in The Shell: Stand Alone Complex. I didn't get the anime at all, but I liked the song xD;
Aeria Gloris also means Hevenly Glory :3

Lithium = ending to GITS:SAC, I felt it suited my alch and homunculus to have themed names? XD

Rosary Rose = from a story I wrote in 7th grade and then adapted to fit RO. XD; She's not the purest of Crusaders, thats for sure.. <<;

Ombre*Star = Ombre was a rogue waaay back in '04 (but she was later deleted) and when I remade I decided to add a stuff to it so people would maybe think I'm female. :/ Ombre means Shadow in french, and hombre means male/man in spanish? XD lol..

.Harmony. = I thought since sages were "intun" with the land and all that crap that it was a suitable name for one. :3

Riana Demonbane = >>; Riana means holy and since she's a demon slayer (in my mini-story I made up for her) and has an odd build (sword + signium cruises + demon bane) that she needed a last name like demonbane. :3

Raspberry Rubus = Raspberries are members of the Rubus plant-thingie family. >_>; Nuff said.

Arin Gloris = my second male character. story-wise he'd be Aeria's little brother. :3

Lastly~ Leichi, and Aurantina were just names I made up. .__.;

My first char(sin) name was Chalina which is made up from my real name. 'Cha' from my first, 'li' from my middle and 'na' form my last. She has been deleted for a while remade several months ago into a dancer.

Most of my char names have Chan or Channa in it. Being a short form of my real name. My HP's name is based from this with the La in front, Lachanna.

I have a few chars that don't have Chan in them. My alchie Sheylen for one, I can't remember why I named her that. It was before I really started on the Chan names though.

My wizard's name is Sugar Blossom. This is one of the nick names that my bf calls me.

Dr. Tame
11-17-2007, 11:25 AM
My original character, 'Hoi Karnage' is the only one with a story behind it. There was this anime short, only aired in Japan about little robot dolls made by the "Hoi Hoi" corporation or something that activated in peoples home at night to terminate insects and junk in violent ways. Soon as I saw thief bugs and some of the other insect monsters on RO it seemed perfect.

Dr. Tame is just what I named my merch to sell the mass of pet eggs i'd accumulated. Never realised he'd become my main.

Galihan - I had no idea what to name my knight, so used a fantasy name generator. This sounded knightly.
Kelser - Same name generator. He was going to be a monk, but I deleted the aco to make a priest, and the name stuck.
Geralath - Same name generator (yeah, I suck when having to think up names)
Spider-Pig - is amazing and a half. enough said.
Diffuser - Name of a lesser-known band. Sounded cool for a monk.
Polycarbonate - Name of a shatterproof plastic used for safety glasses and those cool "unbreakable" water bottles. I had to have a chemical name for my alch
zoomba zoomba - yeah... I couldn't think what to name my leech archer/bard, so I put the first thing that came to mind. No idea why it was this though.

Lien~/L i e n/- Lien -/Lien` - I used a generator to get Lien and ran with it for most of the chars on that acct. I got tired of people asking if I was Viet (since apparently the name is) so I changed when I xferred servers for a while.
Teinay - stemmed from a convo I had with a guildmate on what obnoxious thing he should name his female buffslave. It's supposed to be pronounced like T & A (tits and ass)
AnomaIy - Sounded like a cool name for a heat TKM since their method of lvling is quite different than most chars.

Kazae - the name I've used for my protagonists from way back. Usually pronounced as 'K-Z'. On RO, was specifically Kah-zah-eh, but just like people do with Real Life names, ended up putting up with however people pronounced it. When original account was BS-banned and Gravity wouldn't unban even with proof, remade at GF's insistence and added his last name: Kazami. Original story - athiest Crusader. Story progression leads to him becoming a Maltheist Paladin, in time.

Zhane - more love for Z-names. Had to delete him, and remade him on Sakray, to make room for another character. His last name is Kentek, because it's a suitable sounding lame anagram. Combo Monk into Guillotine Fist, and somewhat 'beatnik'.

Eazak - who Zhane was deleted to make. Pronounced EY-zack. Will accept Eh-Zack, but otherwise, screw you. Made when I got sick of people asking, while I kept my Kazae in Swordie form waiting for Crusader back before 2-2, "Y J00 NO NITE LOL". Hate built. Hate fermented and fomented. And that hate was born in the form of Eazak Zeitgheist, whose story is, basically, some hunter was hunting Wanderer, and talked shit to him, and when the hunter had Wanderer ankle-snared, Eazak magnum-breaked the Wanderer into the hunter, and the two died simultaneously...and Eazak ganked the Muramasa that had dropped, because he is a right bastard. No, this didn't actually happen. Bastard Agi Knight, and son of a person who became a Wanderer.

Kolbyr - Norse name I liked, starts with a K, and inspired, ironically enough, by Jeff from Earthbound, only in turn becoming the sweet innocent bimbo-boy that became the Man of the Hour. His last name is Anpretzels. He will become a mechanic.

Coeam Modao - from a code from the classic PC-Engine game Dungeon Explorer. My battle sage from before people thought of doing non-int battle sages. Can be summed up, in personality, by this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rN2VqFPNS8w. Not so much hate-filled as utterly exasperated by Stupid People.

Kim Jae Hoon - yes, I'm an SNK fan. Less than I am a Capcom fan, but I digress. Jae Hoon is my Soul Linker.

Kim Dong Hwan - my Tae Kwon Master.

Kool Aid Man - My second alchemist. And, by personality, my more popular one.

Kettle Black - my original alchemist. Made to coincide and counterpart to the GF's MS monk, Black Pot. Acerbic, blunt, callous, disdainful, erudite, and in many ways inspired by Terrence "T.C." Carson (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrence_%22T.C.%22_Carson) in his portrayal as Kyle Barker in Living Single. Yes, Kettle is Black. So is Black Pot.

Debde Debda - another Dungeon Explorer code, that in the original game allowed walking through walls. Debde is, in my head, a very very VERY stereotypical sounding indian from the Punjab region, but is close to the stereotype of having a degree in almost any and all things, without any of the degrees being fake or frivolous. He is a very driven Hocus Pocus sage, whom no one takes seriously due to the combination of his cheerful demeanor, strong accent, and non-transcendent status.

Nester Howards - inspired by the old Howard and Nester comics in Nintendo Power, Nester is the Unluckiest Thief Ever. He started on Loki, and had a horrible time of it. He was remade on Sakray, and became less unlucky, though this led to a new nickname - The Man with No Self Preservation Instinct. Has an expansive criminal family. He is a dagger rogue, but has a hybrid hurricane bow that he uses to show off. Snatching expert with a love for Plagerism.

You Damn Kid - named for a favorite Webcomic. His actual name remains unknown, but he answers to 'Joe'. Melee Supernovice.

Masahige - dropped an S. A variant name by which the exceedingly popular Hattori Hanzo was known. Projectile Ninja extraordinaire.

The Man with No Name - Ooo-ee-ooo-ee-oooo....Wah Wah Wah...

Future Hole Punch - Placeholder assassin. Still haven't gotten to do the quest with him. Intending to be Double-Attack Crit Assassin. Yes, more hybrid.

Harmit - The last Dungeon Explorer injoke. An unlockable class, you had to advance to level 65 as a Bard to become a 'Harmit', which was a typo/engrish of Hermit. Such is also Harmit's story - he was a bard, his dancer partner died, the only priest available would not resurrect her, so he went around badmouthing the church in song. One 'faction' within the clergy recruited him to become a monk so that he would be able to strike back at the priest who wronged him. When the time came, it was not he who took vengeance, but an assassin from his guild. All he had to do was not take action. Another combo monk, with championship in his future.


For clarification!

Kazae, while accepting of holy magic, didn't believe in the Gods, as they were described. A long mishap involving Glast Heim changed that. Now, he somewhat believes, though his own views on the Gods border on the heretical - he thinks they're deliberately 'screwing with the mortals because it brings them joy'. Thusly, not an atheist - a maltheist, due to the belief that the Gods are Malevolent.

Kolbyr has a theme song - Everyone Says Hi by David Bowie.

Eazak sometimes speaks in tongues - to wit, mih htiw sdrawkcab epyt semitemos lll'I. And the songs I associate with him are a remix of Freak on a Leash and the Asshole song by Denis Leary.

When I play The Man With No Name, the song is on Loop, in the Background. Hugh Montenegro version, not the one actually led by Enrico Mancini.

Kool Aid Man's real name is Eddie Mann, though rumors exist his real last name is Perkins.

Toca - (battle sage) Jason Mraz said this:
So I was saying, Me and Coffee are like this. We're tight. We hang out a lot. We drink together, eat together, ice cream and dessert together. And you know what they say, those who snack together, crap together. We do it all. I even had a vision that my first child will be coffee colored. I sure hope so. That could also mean I might marry an Indian woman which would make me the most stoked. Until then, I wish I had a best friend whose name happened to be Coffee. I could start calling Toca that I guess. He is both bold and brown after all, and usually lifts me up when I'm feeling down. I like coffee.

Dannykat
11-30-2007, 05:21 PM
Dannykat -came from a kids movie in 1997 called "Cats Don't Dance" and the main character was named Danny and he was a cat. Dannycat didn't look nice, so I chose Dannykat.

Cpt. Underpants - I didn't get it from the book, I never even read that before. I was thinking of a name for this scholar and a guildie told me this name. I didn't expect to actually get to scholar, but it did.

Finrod
11-30-2007, 10:14 PM
Finrod's Revenge - I had a character orignally named Finrod Carnesir, who was an AGI Smith back like.. 3 years ago. He really sucked cause he was an AGI Smith, so when I remade him (on a different slot first), I named him Finrod's Revenge as he was going to be a VIT Smith so he could finally rape Snipers, Sins, Knights, etc.

Finrod Carnesir - Is my name translated to middle-earthen Elvish.

Rebellion - It's a rogue.

Geomyr - My Battle Priest and is also my name in Middle-Earth Dwarfish. Makes sense, seeing as how it's a "dwarf" class, and they use maces :D

Sean. - HP, my name.

SalehTheNotSage - When I first started playing RO, I was playing Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, and one of my more favorite characters was a Sage-class character named Saleh

I remember this

the running joke was that you had char ADD but you had pretty good names and I think matt made Salehthenotnotsage or something

damn its been a while ok I forgot

Lempicka
12-01-2007, 10:31 PM
Lempicka is from the French designer, Lolita Lempicka, because I really adore her clothes and designs, they're all very elegant. This name also happens to be Souseiseki's artificial spirit in the anime Rozen Maiden.

Commad
12-02-2007, 09:35 AM
Matsuo: It came mostly from the first manga I ever read, Maico 2010. Matsuo is the name of the slightly gay-hetero main character who is male protagonist, and the story is mostly told from his perspective. I also chose my class, Monk, because of Matsuo Basho, who is probably the most famous samurai class Haiku writer of feudal Japan. My real name is also Matt, so it kind of works that way too.

Halation
12-03-2007, 04:39 AM
Halation - (High Priest) I started out on this char with the name Clefairy,dance,dance!! I don't know WHAT I was thinking.Anyways,changed it to Halation,which is from Chrono Trigger.It's one of the moves a boss uses that kicks your ass.Basically means Annihalation but shortened.Incidently one of sailor moons attacks is called "moon princess halation"
Moonlight Blade - (Sinx) Started out as Cinnamaroll named after a sanrio character that is a bunny.Cause my nickname in real life is bunny.Changed it to Moonlight Blade cause it sounds cooler.
Resonance - (Dancer) Sounds cool and means to reverbate sound I think.
kiRite - (Monk) Named after the music composed by Yasunori Mitsuda for a japanese play.
V a j r a (Crusader) Named after a sword from final fantasy tactics advance

Flamez-(Sage) fire related once again lol

Inferno-(Monk) theres a fire pattern HERE

Chris~-(blacksmith)- my name of course without the tildy lol.

[CidHighwind]
02-11-2008, 03:32 PM
OOh yay my turn

*takes deep breath*

YokaiTaijiyaMackwell-(SuperNovice) My first RO char ever made back in early 05. His name was a combination of the title used for the demon exterminators from InuYasha (such as Sango) and the name Mackwell taken from Star Ocean TTEoT (SO3); the name of one of the NPC alchemists you can sign.

[CidHighwind]-(Crusader) This one is so blatantly obvious... my 4th 'serious' character.

PrinceInnes-(Hunter) Innes, prince of Frelia from Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones.(2nd char)

Rei Ijuuin-(merch) Your rival in Tokimeki memorial who has loads of money, assets, good looks (and is also actually one of the girls you can end up with)

Harkeith-(Priest) Harkeith is the name I use for the priest/acolyte type character in prettymuch any game I play be it console, MMO or w/e. The name is actually to be used for the assassin character in a story of mine XD (3rd char)

Risandra-(Sage) Based off a character from a story of my own creation. A renegade princess who happens to also be the leader of a gang of bandits.

Clayrah-(Dancer) Also an original character, skilled in the use of whips.

Hikari_Hinomoto-(TKM) From Tokimeki Memorial 2, your old friend and also a major love interest. Hikari is good at track and field hence being a TK.

Eiana-(Aco) Another original name. She's an elvish warroir from yet another story (WIP)

Cistina & Katrina Cruz-(Merch & Ninja) Two sisters with silver-white hair resembling that of Soma Cruz from Castlevania XD

Ashly the Hurricane-(Rogue) Also a combination. The name Ashly comes from someone I know irl who is quite roguelike in nature while the suffix is that of Legault's nickname from Fire Emblem (6)

Love and Pain-(Sin) Named after the end theme to the anime 'Louie the Rune Soldier' which was either sung or written by an artist nicknamed 'SIN'

fps_doug-(novice[GS]) BOOM HEADSHOT!

Stray Dog Strut: title of episode 2 from cowboy bebop also a song.

Fly Molo: character in the book enders game. one of his jeesh if i remember.

Burger Porn: watching a weird show about fast food on this history channel and they described some carls jr and jack in the box commercials as burger porn.

Crab Battle: a MSG3 flash spoof on newgrounds.com its great.

Nerf Kobe: on the old ragnainfo forums someone posted a thread about kobe Bryant scoring 81 points to which someone responded “Nerf Kobe”.

Pro Style: we used to use this phrase a lot on gaia vent.

Alt female slave acct just cause I think theyre great names

D Cup – priest

Guild Trash - hunter
Slam Dunk – linker
Sewer Rat – dancer
Mangrove Crab – sage
Restless Young Makak - tkm

Deis' assault
02-13-2008, 09:42 PM
Deis' assault: I never knew the origin of this character's name until someone told me the meaning of the word "Deis" randomly. If I remember correctly in Greek (I think) it means Holy. Thus it means "Holy's assault." I named this character after a friend's character because this character was just a Dancer leech character to get my friend's Aco to Priest. Looks like I had too much fun with this class.

Unholy Intimacy (my High Priest) was previously Unholy Savior. I don't find myself a very religious person so I decided to make it a bit more personal and change it to intimacy to represent something that means a lot to me.

I have a ton of other characters. Guess I can go into a few more.

Deathtrap (my Sniper) is pretty straightforward. This was back when Hunters where a "dominating" class. Hunters trap and they were among the fastest killers... so voila, Deathtrap.

Maria Practica (my pure potting 99 Alchemist). Really didn't have an idea for a name for an Alchey (I like class related names). So I did some research on female alchemists and came across Mary the Jewess (http://www.hypatiamaze.org/chem/alchem_1a.html) who is one of the first female alchemists. Because Mary the Jewess sounded way too old fashioned, I decided to use the name of her well known (at the time) book which flowed better called The Maria Practica. I find it funny when some people think the name is Mexican but I can understand why.

Batman
02-15-2008, 08:26 AM
My first char was a knight, Coaxial Knight, a shoutout to the job I had then as IT intern.

My priest, "Holy Healer, Batman!", came from me trying to think of something that had to do with priest. I think I came out with Holy Healer, and that made me think of the Adam West Batman tv series. I liked this name, so I stuck with it. It was also the start of my series of comic-based superhero names.

My Rogue, Batkid, was my priests sidekick.

My Smith, "It's Clobberin' Time!" was a not-as-clever attempt to have a name like my priest's.

My Palidan, Captain America, was cause he was shield/sac as a sader, obviously.

My TK Ranker, Black Belt Jones, is a salute to a "so awful that its so good" blaxploitation film by the same name (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071221/).

My Battle Sage, Cleffers McGee, is named after my girlfriend's turtle.

My Bard was made at the same time as my girlfriend's dancer. A clever, bard/dancer-based pickup line. She continued with it, I stopped. Nice Shoes, Wana Pluck?

My Sin X, Daredevil, was named cause I planned on having him equip a blinder/blinker the whole time. That lasted all of 2 months.

My bubble gum fort bitch, Ugly Pack Mule, is just that. An ugly pack mule.

My Monk, Captain Caveman, more of an obscure cartoon superhero. Captain Caveman was very strong and smashed things with a mace. Figured a gfist monk is the same.

My Crit Knight, Ineffective Flash is explaining what he is. Very flashy (with morrigane set), but generally ineffective.

The Blue Bomber, my alchemist, was a reference to megaman. His first filir was named Maverick Storm Eagle.

xaerael
02-15-2008, 08:29 AM
Xaerael - way back in the beardy days of diablo 2, i always liked the names like azrael, tyrael, etc. so i went about trying to find an unused phonetic to put before "rael" (which means angel in some language... arabic i think) and came up with Xaerael (zay-reil) for a trap assassin.

Irryon - totally made up. (irry-on)

Sephey - i always liked the first phonetic of Sephiroth (seff) and played with it to make a female name from the phonetic, thus getting Sephey (seff-ee)

Tirrena - two names i like put together. Tir (or Tyr), nordic god who sacrificed his hand to fenris, and Rena, of .hack fame. (ti-rena)

Ukatoumaru - broken japanese. the first part "ukatou" comes from Ukatousen, which the basic meaning is "a release", and "maru" means "perfect, or perfection". broken i know, but it almost means "perfect release"

Ichimugen - japanese, Ichi means first, Mugen means infinity. "first infinity"

Nimugen - apply above, only Ni means second ;p

Vanadis - correct spelling for Vandagris

Ouka the Divine Fist - .hack character

Raiuchii - made up. possibly means something.

Sephophor - baby character of Sephey and my friend's sage, Metaphor.

[edit]

oh! and i forgot the two most important.

Fricca - well.. i had this name longer than the item has existed, but honestly don't know where it came from. i think i thought it was a nordic goddess, but i'm unable to find reference to it anywhere.

Creamtor - Fricca's vani, for the LuLz

Ryock
02-15-2008, 04:15 PM
Every one of my chars is in a story I have been writing and developing since 2002, when I first came up with my name, Ryock. Since then, I created a very big story involving Ryock and other chars, so I use those chars' names in RO. Some of them Japanese, with the exception of Ryock. Lurukia, I don't remember how I came up with that one.

Ryock, pronounced Ry-okk: Ryock is the main char of the story, and is supposed to be a travelling spellcaster. He is well known around the world for his adept spells and oftentimes takes apprentices under his wing to train. He's the only one left of his family and it is unknown what he is travelling for.

Ryoshi Tensuma: Supposed to be a good friend of Ryock's. Although that's true, they rarely ever see each other, and are quite distanced apart most of the time due to their own duties they feel they need to attend to. Supposed to be a holy man of sorts, he often tries to solve people's problems, and see if there's something he can do to help those in need. After receiving an urgent notice from someone, he seeks out to find Ryock.

Yukari Lurukia: Ryock's apprentice, and travelling companion. Although she is only 14, she has been taught and raised by Ryock for two years, and she is very well adept in melee combat, and magic, using them in a different way from which Ryock was attempting to teach her. Her family name almost completely wiped out, she trains under Ryock, as her family has always had a talent for magic. Rash, impatient, tough, and sometimes violent, she's a student who is difficult for Ryock to manage.

Got a whole bunch of other chars, but those are the important ones XD;.

Arcona again he quit. I know him real life. Um I have no idea what the name means but i think it is something in Canada...

Grief
02-19-2008, 10:57 AM
Grief Heart- my brother was trying to get me into D2's hardcore mode and one excuse i gave him was i didnt want to think of a new name. so he started to say a few. when he came to that one, and i loved it. made my 1st d2 hardcore chara that never actually died (the only one to never die and it only he ended up 85ish ne way lol) but it was a holy freeze pali. in ro i decided to keep the name. and with Sader/Pali class i think it fits perfectly (sacing someone and takign their damage ect)

nalmercia
02-19-2008, 11:03 AM
nalmercia
Made up in 4th grade when i wrote a story about some assassin girl named Runa. i decided shortly afterwards that I'd flip it for her normal life name which became Naru.
I decided that Naru would be too short a name for the high ranking princessish character that I wanted to make her so I mixed up sounds and came up with Narumeshia. I englishified it to come up with nalmercia.

Himeyasha : contrary to common claims, it's not from inuyasha. When I was in 6th grade I read this book which depicted the tragic love story between Kazu no Miya and a member of the Tokugawa clan sometime in the 1600s. Kazu no Miya's childhood name was Himeyasha

Paracelsus
02-28-2008, 05:35 PM
Paracelsus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paracelsus) is the name of an famous alchemist, physician, astrologer and occultist who lived in the 1400's.

Valentinus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valentinus_%28Gnostic%29) is an early theologian.

I'm really interested in gnostic philosophy, history and occult so I choose names that have to do with that.

mag
02-29-2008, 12:09 PM
Yris (biochemist) - derived from Iris (flower) which I changed a bit because "Iris" sounds like...a server. And I like the letter Y a lot! XD

Audrey Bell (priest) - I like names that end with "-ey" (Shirley, Kerley...), and since I wanted to give my priestess a "French" style, I picked my favourite French actress's name: Audrey Tautou.

MurieI (sage) - I liked this name. :< It's derived from Gaelic "shining sea", but really, the first time I heard it was from an Australian movie =P (and since the real name was taken, sneaky l->I swap!)

Malve (alchemist) - I really like flowers, so this is German for Malva (a blue-purplish flower), because it sounds better in German :D

Characters I don't play much:
Cannelle - French for cinnamon. Her hair is light brown!
Solvejg - Swedish name, taken from "Solvejg's Song" from Grieg's Peer Gynt Suite
Aqua Luna - Luna is from Lunamaria Hawke (Gundam Seed Destiny), since all variation of that name were taken, I added "aqua" because it sounded cool 8D
Minuet Maid - it's a bard. A minuet is a dance, and I was craving orange juice :E

BronxZENuff - Deccedant of the ZENuff clan, dating back to PhillZENuff (sounds like "feels enough"). He is the younger Brother of ~KenZENuff~ who is locked away somewhere in a Cambodian prison for smuggling plants into the country. He vows to carry on the ZENuff tradition, and finish the work of his older brother. Bronx is the name I gave him because it just sounded like a cool name for a Blacksmith :)

All variations of my name because when we server transfered I didn't want to check if all my names were open and so I just did Kendruh ; Kendraaa ; `Kendra ; Kendra. ; -Kendra ; and finally /wrist because I could not believe it wasn't taken.
