Character Name [How Did You Come Up With It?]

[Lunavi]

I do not really know how. I do like I always do and start typing until it feels right for my character. And Lunavi really really stuck So then I added the last name Melovi because it fitted so well with the first name Lunavi.

Man have I been waiting for a thread like this.

I put in way too much time to my name, Aylin Moon.
My character was originally a Seeker of the Moon Miqo'te.
I really want to incorporate the whole "moon" thing into her name (hence the last name!)
Aylin, if I am not mistaken, is Turkish for "halo around the moon". I thought it was pretty and fitting and so... Aylin Moon, was born.
I'm a Lalafell now but I still tried to make it so the name makes sense, still. My Lalafell's hair sometimes blends in with the night sky in the game (same colours) so there's always that.

[Felis]

My character was a female Moonkeeper in 1.0 called Skadi Felis.
Skadi got changed to Skadi'a (first son of Skadi)
And I found Lihzeh as a last name for Moonkeepers and changed it to Felihzeh

[DenzelTaru]

Denzel is the ickle char from ffvii advent children.. and my lalafell is ickle o.O

and Taru is the true name for our species

[Nuinn]

Short excerpts from Wikipedia:

Ross Nichols (1902–1975) was a Cambridge academic and published poet, artist and historian, who founded the Order of Bards, Ovates and Druids in 1964. He wrote prolifically on the subjects of Druidism and Celtic mythology. His Druid name was Nuinn.

Klaus Sperber (January 24, 1944 – August 6, 1983), better known as Klaus Nomi, was a German countertenor noted for his wide vocal range and an unusual, otherworldly stage persona.

Both of these men are fascinating to me, for completely different reasons and I kinda feel a weird personal connection to them so I adopted their names.

Mine is very silly and I actually can not wait to change it..
But Peashy comes from Hyperdimension Neptunia V. I love Peashy in it she's soo cute and dumb.
As for my last name Crema idk...
I couldn't think of a last name.. and people always thought that you said Peashy like peachy and not as pea-she as it's actually pronounced..

So Peashy and cream came from that...

Ugh I wanna change it to Peashy Grafx or Peashy Engine when SE will let me ; ;

After creating 11 Chars with the Benchmark I chose my favorite and came up with this wordplay between Faith and Fate (back then I had no idea how omnipresent fate's would be)
At first I wanted it to be his first name, but after there days of trying to come up with the perfect surname, which I wanted to be some thing, like cloud or lightning, when the word Talon came to my mind. But Fait Talon sounded pretty dumb to me, but when I switched the words I was satisfied.
When wearing a hat, Talon looks like a woman wearing men's clothes, which was done on purpose.
My Main in SWTOR was a female Rattataki, so when I decided that my next Main would be male, I Chose the shortcut Hair and the androgynous apearance as a hommage to my last Main.

[Cyrus-Wallace]

My in-game nick y Lucille (french, means "light") and Wallace because I, as a roleplayer, created a world called Edoma. There was a country called Ibalnia ruled by Evanir Wallace IX. By the influence of the oblivians, an ancient race who workshipped The Void, influenced the king to destroy his own nation. His descendants, the sons of his sons are still alive. Years passed on and the blood of the True king still remains in the souls of the brave. The true Wallace's descendants have red hair and clear green eyes. Lucille was always a paladin (in every game I play) and Cyrus the warrior (in every game I play).

[Slirith]

Amestra was a random nord name from DAOC that I liked and Blackoak is the last name I chose in DAOC for my sylvan valewalker

[Miles_Maelstrom]
