How do you name your characters /tg/?

I always use my real name for PCs because fuck you.

For random NPCs I have a baby book of names and I just flip through it.

I use misspelt names of obscure historical writers, artists, heroes and villains for plot relevant people. Sometimes it relates to their characters, sometimes it's an ironic name, and sometimes I just liked the sound.

>Go to UESP Elder Scrolls Wiki
>Look up race closest to the race I'm playing
>Scroll through the list of names from that race
>Tear pieces that sound cool and re-combine them into character name

A generic high fantasy adventurer. So generic, that he wears a sword on his back and doesn't use a shield.

Yeah GOOD LUCK (sarcasm) finding any pictures like that.

I usually like to say fuck fantasy names.
Something biblical usually works or maybe a fantasy spelling to a real name. Obviously it depends on the character but I like tacking on a little nickname so it would be something like.

Luke Baron, King of Crows.

Although I almost always play Human so I haven't put much thought into names for different races.
