I've been playing video games for a long time, most of them RPGs. In these games I am often "allowed" to name my characters. There are only a few that I am really proud of, either humurous or well fitting. The rest never really "grab me" like they should.
Merrigrin: A name I have used in multiple games throughout my playing days. A mash-up of Merriodock Brandybuck and Perrigrin Took from Lord of the Rings. It also seemed to describe most of my characters that smiled a lot
EverQuest in 2001. I created a Bard named "Kuhnnyng L'Yngwyst." It was around the time the Pierce Brosnan Bond Film came out (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RRLN3Jo800 where an exquisite line is uttered by Moneypenny. Being a Bard in EverQuest, I did concentrate on learning as many languages as I could (there hundreds to learn), so it was both fitting and "tongue-in-cheek."
Niik Storm-Dancer in Skyrim. Niik being the Dragon language word for "Gale" and Storm-Dancer fitting in with my favorite shout, "Call Storm." So using that shout and then "dancing" in my called storm with my dual wielding Nord was just "perfect", in my eyes
What are some of your "Proudest Character Names" you have come up with ?
