People recognizing your character name

[File2ish]

I've been recognized a few times. Couple people remembered me for not being a prick to people like some healers they may have had in previous runs, and offering tips and advice to duties to someone in the party that hasn't. But usually it's for my name. Someone said "Belmont! Where's your whip?" or something of the like in a DF group because of the name Richter (side note; my chocobo is Shanoa =p), another mentioned Tales of Legendia to me (took my surname from one of the characters, Chloe Valens).
