Its one of those things in WoW that can be funny, annoying or down right ban-able, but how do you plan to name you're characters here in WaR.

Pop-culture ref, Silly, In character with the world or you're own odd idea?

Myself as with WoW I tend to go with names that are either in character with the game world, or the equivalent of Native American Given names. Thus I have names like Shaedrah and Brokenreason.

Here in WaR I think I'll be looking at some of the following.

For the Druchii
Witch Elf posibilites - Shira, Karliesh, Banshee, Blooddaughter, Vishkai, Morgaila, Izila, Crueldagger, Thaerni, Venomspite or Aspera.

If I go for the Empire I plan to bring back a main character General of mine from the Storms of Chaos campaign who was actually mentioned in the round up book that came out after the campaign.

So where are folks going themselves?

Well one good thing about a two-name-system (first name and last name) is that I'll actually be able to obtain "Dyne" as my main character! But I haven't decided a last name for him, yet. It'll probably depend on which race I choose.

I'd say the other names I plan to use as alts, but I'm paranoid and think someone would steal them!

Hehe, aye I must admit I didn't realize it was a two name system, thats very cool and something severely lacking in WOW.

Well in that case anyone can feel free to grab any of those first name ideas above if they so wish, but I'll keep my surnames to myself.

*sigh* I hate the two name system... I take long enough to pick out ONE good name! Now I have to think of another!

Mostly to pick a name I create what my character will look like, stare at it a bit and then go look for names. A lot of my names end up coming from Greek... it's a long process that has now gotten even longer >.<

Yeah I can understand that it could be a pain, I'm lucky that after near on 20yrs of being the ST/DM in RPG games I can generally pull names out of the hat at a moments notice.

Mind you at least you go looking for names based on other things such as greek as you mentioned, rather than calling yourself Humanmage or Nightdruid. *shivers*

ill end up with some Latin sounding name probably. that always happens for me.

Hmmm, Well I wouldn't mind trying to get Lady Neliel like the character from Bleach... even tho Nel is female, I don't really care... I'd rather look at a woman's arse then a guy's arse whilst playing games anyways =P.

I like names which are an actual word.
My DAOC character was called Fascination and I had another called Transendence.
It will most likely be one of those or another similar to them.

Well, if it's a two-name system you're going to have to have two real words. Fascinating Transcendence maybe?

Speaking of the name system, will they be using two names or one? I don't remember an official decision being made on that subject.

Heh, Yeah I am going to have to think of something like that
Fascinating Transedence sounds good though, may have to steal it....

Zanduar. It has been with me for 14 years...

Delexo of course.

Nixas something if it's a 2 name system, something brutal for the second name though as I'll be going Marauder.

Everyone scorns the guy who named his elf Legolas in the beta. Same goes for Drizzt and all that.
