I must have stared at the character naming screen for 30 or 45 minutes. I couldn't think of anything I liked. So, I did what college students do to break through writer's block - I grabbed a beer and a cigarette and sat outside on the balcony, thinking. And it worked.

I named my character after "Eek the Cat", which was an old Saturday morning cartoon show from my childhood. Since I play a Mithra, it's kind of clever and simply 'fits' my character. I've received hundreds and hundreds of /tells over the years from people who love the name and enjoyed the little nostalgia bomb of memories of the cartoons they watched as kids.

It's the best name to have over your head when you're kiting or something goes wrong. lol
