it's okay, I think that's mainly a you thing. I as an author don't really like my characters losing their name. The big difference between Eadric and Joker and Sheppard is that Eadric talks a lot, has his personality, has a SPECIFIC background of a medic and has his family issues that comes out in 0.5 with Isolde, Eadric is closer to Geralt than Joker, is not meant to being self-insert.
but anyway I DO like nameable characters, especially when the main character is mute (and customizable)
I experimented a bit here:
