Heey, guys. I haven't been on this forum for a long time and i thought i would start to replay one of the best games ever made. So i have been making some character concepts and im almost done. All i need is some good names. And since im terrible at thinking of good names (the fact that english isn't my native lanuage doesn't help) i would like to ask you guys for help.

-A female NCR ranger good karma

-A male legion frumentarii good karma

-A female House mercenary evil karma

-A male BOS paladin with evil karma

ugh, I too hate naming.

Only one is for the NCR Ranger be 'Ranger *insert something badass sounding*" ... but you'd probably already thought as much!

Wow i also svck at naming characters, my first three characters were named after my last name, courier, and finally Shepard. I played Shepard sorta like a full paragon Shepard form mass effect, talked everyone possible down and settled things in the best possible way.

Courier was a generic protagonist who i used to complete ncr and legion playthroughs (my least favorite faction choices)

I got a name for the BOS character, Paladin Arthur Devlin.

1 down 3 to go.

First names:

• Tatum
• Chelby
• Hiram
• Jack
• Jake
• Rodrick
• Guy
• Vince
• Sean

Last names:

• Hornsworth
• Smith
• Jones
• Littlehorn
• Youngeagle
• Barnes
• Cain
• Van Buren
• Eden

Staff Seargent Max McIroncock.

Is Guy really a english first name? it seems rather......obvious.

Brutus is a good name, for anyone, NCR or Legion. Totally an intimidating name, along with Kaiser (his one is close to my heart because this word is used for the weapons a large, fearsome creature uses, called the Ultralisk, using its claws that are named Kaiser Blades, that are monomolecular and can slice through any material with ease). You might as well cook up your own name with a brainstorm.

Thanks ill think i go with Mattheus Brutus for my legion character. And the funny thing is he will be a good karma character.

just name your guy Courier.

Names i use personally

Evil Playthrough Male / Female = Cholo , Jessica Scorpion

Neutral Playthrough Male / Female = Courier , Sky

dislike using last names because it seems kind of pointless imo. Also Red is a pretty good name for anyone and would probably fit any profile.

I like Jessica, i'm gonna use that for my NCR ranger. Only need a last name for her now.

Zass and Sedissa for the female char's

Mktavish is a great name for guys ... That's actually the only name I use for guys anymore ... just different derivations Mktavy ,MK ... Stavish etc...

Awhile ago I used the name Noscus for a male char when I played Baldurs Gate.

This always helps me name my characters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Vb2U89EJG4

1. Kiki Rodrigez

2. Sanctus Inhumanum (Brutal Saint)

3. Jennifer Rothgas

4. Eli Sanchez

Thanks for the suggestion, my ranger is now called Jessica Rodrigez and the merc first name Jennifer. now only i only need a last name and i'm done.

Hutson/Hudson? (lastname)

I think it rolls off the tounge nicely, Jennifer Hutson.

You do realize that Kaiser is an evolution of Caesar, right? You'll be naming yourself Caesar #2 basically.

Technically, yes, but Kaiser has been used and abused in the history of mankind. Kaiser is in Germany, Roman history, and even used at a hospital. Go figure, it's a lovely name (and for me, seeing as it means "Emperor", along with the use in Starcraft on blades that make every other creature fear them in the known sector, I took the name). So in other words, you can thank Caesar for the name, as it's been used to the point any system or faction can use it without feeling 'roman' like.

Caesar is pronounced to sound like Kaiser.

The Actual world Kaiser came from Germany, which derived from the pronunciation of Caesar. In an way, They derive from each other, but are different as well.

Kaiser is Emperor and Caesar is the last name OF an Emperor. Pretty cool stuff, IMO.

I always (well, nearly) pick a non starring name from one of my favirute TV shows or movies. Silas Adams (from Deadwood is one of them).

Wel i named the merc Jennifer Mui (eternal glory if you know where thats from)

Here are the the character concepts if your curious about them. They are word documents with images and what not so i dont know if you are going to see those in this post and i don't know how to ad files to post (is it possible on this forum?).

The neutral/good female NCR Ranger Jessica rodrigez

The good legion Frumentarii Mattheus brutus

The Neutral/Evil House Mercenary Jennifer Mui

The neutral/evil Brotherhood of Steel Paladin Arthur Devlin

I don't play as male characters, so I can't help you there.

But if you'd like a female name, feel free to use mine: Violynne. Yep, just like the instrument. It looks nice and it's pretty unique.

My last character was named Akari, named after a character in one of my favorite anime series ever.

I would try thinking up something unique, so you can call it your own. A play on words or phrases, as I did above, works really well.

I typically play as female characters and I have three basic methods:

Random first name, e.g.: Ashley, Alicia, Anna, Bianca, Zoe, etc

Comicbook naming convention, e.g.: Pollyanna Purin, Carla Chamomile, etc

And the new one I'm trying this playthrough: Spy comedy false name (You know, when the spy can't give his real name so he looks around the environment for inspiration). I ended up with: Fane Clockgrey.

As far as pronunciation goes, both "See-zar" and "Kai-sar" are technically correct - the former is the English pronunciation and the latter is the more appropriate Latin pronunciation.

That is so close to my my character's name, Chichi Rodriguez.

Other faves:

Thor Laserpunch, Buff Killington, Rodney raqerfield, Dirk Scumley
