I'm a Dungeons & Dragons player so I came up with my Khajiit's name from the cat-folk's language in Races of the Wild expansion book. I named my character Azhera Renmar. Any thoughts?

My main character is an Argonian named Cesaret which is Turkish for courage [no i'm not Turkish ] and his Clan name is Stormblade which is the name Ulfric Stormcloak gave to him.

My current character's name is Lunia Skye. I usually come up with a name that best suits how they look.

i play as a dunmer and have always done so since the days of morrowind, my characters name is 'Nerevar' the god u supposedly re-ancarnated in morrowind, i have a bio explaining but its long as [censored]

Turlandio Cousland. Turlandio is something I simply concocted one day while I was reading a book and it appears to be unique (every Google result for "turlandio" is, in fact, me). Cousland is last name of the Human Noble background in Dragon Age: Origins. I adopted it as a reminder that it is one of my favorite games of all time.

If I am playing Elder Scrolls or Dragon Age origins and If I am playing a human I generally go with medieval names-- either Celtic, English or Welch; and sometimes French. If I am playing an Elf of any kind I generally go with http://www.arwen-undomiel.com/elvish/girlnames.html.

Current main is named Kazin, after a character from Shining Force II. While the English names of characters from that game were far from original, it was the first tactical RPG that left a strong impression on me when I was a kid, so every once in awhile I'll name a character out of something from that game.

My current hero a high elf Elrik, after the books Elric the Enchanter by Mike Moorcock. I had a heroine Rosalind taken from the THQ game Summoner. http://youtu.be/Y47UZpp76Eo

My Argonian named Zhul-jin: Troll from Warcraft. Troll culture and Argonian culture seem simular to me..

My Breton named Mordred: Arthurian Myth. The Son of King Arthur, and he was like a battlemage of sorts himself seeing how he learned sorcery from his mother, Morgan LaFey, but was trained as a knight as well.

my character take names from my older tes characters, my main is named crwth, crwth is what my last name comes from, its somekinda oddly shaped lute, but it sounds sorta cool for my nord and breton characters

good bards name

Assassins Creed 1
Altiar II

A favourite of mine is Beatriz Portinari. Although I rarely use the lastname, or tend to substitute it with something a bit more impressive. Its symbolism for me stems from a very old book I read what seems now an age ago.

If the player character is a male, one of my favorites usually is Dalamar Argent. Much more fitting for this fantasy setting, I suppose.

At the moment just "Raen" a breton

An imperial chick "Trajana" another called "Fulminata","Gemina" named after starships from Glen cooks book "The dragon never sleeps"1987

My favourite is "Drakkin-Korin" or "Ashen-shugar" Valheru Dragon lords, riftwar saga, Raymond e feist.

Laeon a Khajiit

Other than that mostly just 1,2,3,4,5,6 hehe.

Usually from fantasy books I have read, character atm is currently named Andor from A Man of his Word series by Dave Duncan

My Breton's name is Riden. If you assign a number to each letter to the Alphabet, ie: A = 1, B = 2..., the value of Riden = 18, 9, 4, 5, 14. Add them together and you get: 50.

Yeah, I used mathematics to make a name. Me and my friends back in Elementary and Middle School used that simple code for a basis for making our own, unique cipher code. So I wanted a simple name, short with not many characters. Multiples of 5 are great for me as it represents a lot of things.

1. Number of States in the U.S: 50
2. Hawaii being the 50th State
3. 5th Grade was the year I got my act together and started to excel in studies
4. Every number on a clock are intervals of 5
5. Squaring numbers that end with 5 is super easy to do mental math
6. There are 5 legit reasons why the number "5" is awesome

I am playing all orcs now, so i just get creative, something that usually starts with Bor, or Gro, or something along those lines, and use something orcish afterwards, like my current character, Bor'Knam,

My Orc - warrior/mage - Name: Talon. Named him after the current big villain in the Batman comic.

My Imperial - warrior - Name: Odvakhaan Shock-Hammer. I just made it up, wanted him to have a Skyrim-ish name.

My High Elf - mage - Name: Kain Worl-Reaver. Was supposed to be WorlD-Reaver, but I typoed. His name is based on Kain from the Blood Omen/Legacy of Kain games.

My Nord dual-wielder is named Magnar. It's a Norwegian name. Its meaning is half-man, half-dragon.

My Khajiit is named Therris. A homage to the Khajiit who nailed Barenziah.

Something humorus or the genus and species name of an infectious disease: see my username.

Aerial, I've alway's liked the name. My test char. When I get to make up a name that's it 1st.

The rest I just make up, no rhyme or reason. Keri Wintersheild, Mica Ravenwing, Lyerria Wintersong.

Im not a lore nut, but im very picky about how i name my characters. If there race tends not to have surnames, then i dont give them one. I also hate naming my character only to find the name is already used. Had a Nord named Hrondmir Hair-Splitter, a breton named Matthieu Cirnand, and an imperial named Junius Mateius
