>Not always naming them after their canon names
>>
>>339513702
Always Jack.
I finished Jack nine tails on impossible mode with the default name "Jack".
From then on I just kept calling my characters Jack for no reason.
>>
If he has a canon name I call him that

but in any other game its just bullshit like "Danger Dan"

>mfw I've creamed on the face of a display dummy at work

What felt like a really good idea at that moment was a mistake in retrospect, walking past it with my collegues feels akward as fuck now.
>>
>>339513702
If it's a game with a dating or marriage mechanic, I self insert
>>
>>339514857
Anything else you creamed on?
>>
>>339513702
I usually start with using the text field
>>
If they have canon names I just use those
If there's none I just use either my own name or my usual online name.
>>
>>339514098
So what do you do in a game like fallout? Do you just call them "vault dweller" or "courier"
>>
I self insert because I wish I could go on fantasy adventures.
>>
>>339514945
Nothing else that I regretted.
>>
Canon name, if one exists
If not, pick a name from some other franchise I like that I think will fit.
>>
>>339513702

If male, usually John, Alan, Ian, Steve or Pete.
If female, Alice. It's my favourite female name.

I usually name them that even in fantasy settings. I'm not that imaginative.

If my character isn't white, I usually use a name generator in relation to what country they're likely to come from.

If I was girl my name would be Julia--->Ju
Sadly, I was born a boy. My name is Philipp--->phi
added the e so it doesn't look weird.
>>
>>339513702
open a random name generator that fits the settings and roll till I find a name I like
>>
>>339513702
Is nobody going to ask for a source?
>>
>>339513702
if it's male i never really know what to choose, but if there is an option for nickname i go for daddy because it's comfy, and female is usually marie
>>
>>339513702
Default name.
If there isn't one, i don't name them
If i have to, some random shit like aaaa
>>
I always use my real name, regardless of the gender.
>>
>>339515334

>>
>>339515498

w-why?
Hunter is the only Souls MC which has 2 bitches who clearly want his dick.

He didn't need to resort to that.
>>
>>339513702
I think something that fits the character on the spot. It can take anything between 5 minutes and 5 days depending on how much I give a shit, but it's never some stupid shit like xXDARKNESS_WEEDXx.
>>
>>339516605
He is just following the ancient tradition of hotgluing a doll mane
>>
>>339513702
I always name my females Rose, males just anything, be it my name, alias or fucking whatever
>>
>>339513702
Usually just a variation of my name. Modern times? Tony/Anthony/Antonio. Ancient times? Antonius
