I cant think of any good names for my character for skyrim and will most likely just end up calling him Dovahkiin. Maybe some of you could help me think of a better name and post some good names for other forum users that like me cant think of a name

What will you call your character?


btw, if you would like to help me and others out post some names under these criterias to help people choose names for thier type of gameplay

Strength based
Stealth based
Magic based
All rounder
Marksman
Other

Probably just name him Hellbishop and play him as a mostly melee,blade,blunt,heavy armor with some magic abilities such as destruction,conjuration, restoration. May even make him a Spellsword which was my very first class i played when i first got TES ARENA back in 1993.

Other names i'll probably use are:

Cutting Glass Red- Blade oriented, focused on fast precise acttacks,light armor, restoration or alchemy for healing and to reflect a one with the world personality.

Vardella- Female dark elf battlemage focused on blade,conjuration,destruction,mysticism,illusion,light armor. Solitary type who loves to search for rare books on the arcane arts and collector of rare unusual some would say morbid treasures.

Huss- Paladin type character focusing on blade,blunt,hand to hand,heavy armor,restoration,speech,merchant. Seeks out evil wherever it may be and DESTROYS IT!!!

Strenght based: Armstrong.
Stealth based: Usama.
Magic based: Gandelf.
All rounder: Jack
Marksman: Bowhandy
Other: Character Name.

My name will be Elenthar Dalas Grand-Grand-Grand-Grand son of Elendil Dalas.

Charlamagne Elias Ohmsford

Altmer, he'll be a 'spearmage' and focus on conjuration, illusion, destruction and spears if there are not spears, two handed swords will do, and medium or heavy armor, though I doubt there is medium.

Tarquin Bimtimlimfimwhintimbustopf'tangf'tangolebiscuitbarrel.

Or if that doesn't fit, Vometia.

Edit: to answer the post below (presumably), Vometia is a Breton, Tarquin is an idiot (well, so is Vom).

Well, what race will you be?

My dudes name: Aaros Indoran

Race: Dunmer

Loosely based on this dude: http://i.neoseeker.com/ca/borderlands_conceptart_fpX9x.jpg

I usually looked rather at the race and named my character fittingly.

Strength based: Wulf Hammerfist
Stealth based: William Gentlestride
Magic based: Latin does a good job here.
All rounder: Ragin Neverfail
Marksman: Aimeric Ebonbow

August Burns Red: Breton fire mage

That will be my later character. I will start with a Nord warrior to save the world! Named Dovahkiin or SkogshuggareN (The lumberjack).
If gambling is going to be in the name of a character could be "Jammy basterd"

M'aiq. Obv.

Charlie Sheen, Btw he has Skooma in his inventory at all times:)

Strength based - Kamizo
Stealth based - Jehon
Magic based - Xernique

Technovakiin

Allyiah Valdas a female Dark Elf healer type character, specializing in mace, shield, restoration and enchanting, with a little destruction, and heavy armor.

I usually pick random names out of the Bible. There are some seriously cool sounding names in there.

Now that we can dual wield , i have to recreate the greatest hero of all , Drizzt Do Urden. Can we summon creature as companion ??

SocknChoppers, related to the ancient SocknBashers.

No relation to SocknSummons.

Erm, I usually name mine something from Lord of the Rings.

Patrick, a nord who's a scout. This is a big in-joke i have with my brother, a tradition started during Morrowind

I have one character for each race, with their own story and whatnot. If I succeed at making a kickass house mod, I'll add a book with lore for each character in the house's library. As for the game at start, I will use my Breton Mage, Nord Warrior and Khajiit Assassin to test out the various features to their fullest.

If the Argonians both look and play great for this game, my main character will be an Argonian. Xartos used to be my Argonian character in Daggerfall and Morrowind, an hero of Argonia - after he had himself been traumatically confronted by the truths of his own vile usage of slaves. Xartos the Unchainer, Xartos the Emancipator - regret is a powerful motivator, "What can change the nature of a man" and all that.



A trekkie joke, perchance? Patrick Stewart: "Space... the final frontier!"

A lot will be transplants from other ES Titles. Shadow-Comes-Inside, my Argonian Witch-doctor from Morrowind and Oblivion. Gozar gro-Galag, my Orc Crusader from Morrowind and Oblivion, Baron Ilero, my beguiling Imperial Vampire from Morrowind and Oblivion, Hanging Moss, my female Bosmer druid from Oblivion, Celador, my male Bosmer Ranger/Illusionist from Oblivion, Fortunado, my Altmer Necromancer from Oblivion, Gilliam Moorford, my Breton Scholar/Mage from Daggerfall and Oblivion, Master Khanj, Goutfang and Rawlith Khaj Master from Morrowind and Oblivion, Sveld the Trap-Setter, my Nord Hunter/Trapper from Oblivion... and a bunch more too long to list. I usually make around a dozen or so characters/builds in an ES Title.

Some names that are probably not the most lore friendly and might still change names.

Breton Battlemage: Jaq Draco (My first character)
Argonian Assassin: Shu'Khan
Altmer mage: Ahzek Magnus
Nord Sell Sword: Crom Bjoin
Dunmer sorcerer: Malus von Carstein
Khajiit hitmen: Lus-Sar-Ka
Imperial Templar: Constantin Scipio
Bosmer huntress: Klara Sutaria

I plan ahead in case you havn't noticed.

I tend to name my characters after myself, purely for immersion purposes. I like to truly live a second life sometimes

What else?
Orksha Borksha !

Thor
He will be a nord, with braided viking beard (if possible, otherwise mod)
He will wield a hammer witch shock/lightning enchantments

for those of you who dont know Thor is an ancient scandinavian God that have a big hammer that creates thunder
