Luka if its modern male
Lukazil if its medieval male

Sonja for female
Got the lukazil from the name generator in WoW, and it's stuck ever since.

If it's a game in a modern setting, I choose Skye, if it's a fantasy game, I go with Aereyja. The first one is because I like it, (hence I use it as nickname too) the second one is because it sounds fantasy like.

Like most, it varies. If I trust a dev somewhat based on the description, info and Patreon stuff all looking decently written and thoughtful then I'll often leave the default. If I'm dubious, I'm likely to choose Dick Johnson, because that way even if the story is crap I at least get some childish amusement from all the lines of "So, you you like Dick?" or "Was great to see ya, Dick"... I'm not proud.

It depends on the setting and whether the character is supposed to be a hero or a villain. There is one thing for sure though, I'd never ever use my real life name.

hah ! nice thread here XD

mmmh.. let's see..

for me it depend.
if the MC is male and look cool, i name it as my real name "Frank".
if the MC look dumb or too young or whatever piece of crap he can be for me, i mostly name it "Shitbag".... and it end very well in most of games XD

if MC is female and look good (aka she's not a cum bucket) i name her with my GF name (i wont tell, because she wont agree XD).
if MC is female and is a bitch cumbucket, then i name her "Skunk". (work perfectly most of time too)


i personally very not like when we dont have option for give a custom name. i feel insulted, specially in great game (like in The Witcher serie)

I always either use "Chief" or "Chef" so that the characters are courteous and treat me with respect :sneaky:

Whatever name I find decent. I called my character Yato in Sister Travel. Suited him pretty well since he made me think of Yato from Noragami mixed with Rance qualities.

Chad Chadington. A mixture of douchebaggery and formality. Clearly a joke :D

funny.. for me, that sound like you are the one who cook for everybody XD
Well, yes.

The guy who dictates what the kitchen prepares and everyone has to eat. Just like 'Captain' is like a 'taxi driver' of a ship or an airplane. :)

Depends, usually don't use my own name anymore. Nowadays I usually just put in something I find funny at the time. For ex. I played Timestamps and your best friend is called Bacon so naturally I named myself Egg.

If a default name is given, take it. If there is none and I'm unsure whether I want to play for an extended period (e.g. attempting to gauge that "lesbian" tag) then "test". For lasting characters usually "Cipher" because it's inhuman enough to match what the character will likely end up doing ;), plus the option of choosing the first name "Louis" just for pun.
