So, what do you name your game characters? After yourself? Someone you know? I thought this would be an interesting question to ask

I normally keep my game characters default names, but when I'm playing the game all over for the hell of it, I give them names based off my family.

Almost always default if it's something like an RPG or whatever. For anything else, I name them after myself.

I will leave as their default names, unless I must pick them. Then I will usually just use Bibbity.

Lmfao, I never did learn Yoda's name.

I never got a nickame thing like a lot of other people. It felt weird being called something different than my name. Hence my username 'Ryan' on every single forum I've been on, ever.

I name my characters stupid stuff, like on Zelda games, I'd name Link '*****' So when the character talks about you it's like, 'Hey, *****! Come here'
And your reaction is ' =O ....Oh wait....'
Or I name them after my favorite anime characters >__>

I name my people:

Big Money
G Thug
Pimp Hand
Ice Daddy
Cash Dawg
Gangsta Homie

The most generic ghetto names you can find. It's great to have a boss taunting Cash Dawg.

It's the best when you're playing Oregon Trail...

I make sure to buy them all the guns and tobacco in Independence City before I leave.

First of all to many people are named Michael to begin with. Me and dad name is Michael every now and then they'll call my dad Mike, but i prefer to be called Michael instead of Mike. But if I have to choose a name like bibbity said I'll put Mike or Flame or something that suits me.
