BEST CHARACTER NAMES

Posts

Pages: first 12 next last
Ever find a character in a video game whose name you just loved? Maybe it sounded cool, maybe it reminded you of something... whatever the case, post a video game character whose name you like.

I was always fond of Mordos Kull from Mace: The Dark Age. I dunno, it just sounds like one of those cookie-cutter-badass names... but it works for how cheesy the game itself is.
Poo from Earthbound has the best name, obviously
Guybrush Threepwood, of course.
Gillian Seed.
Guybrush Threepwood! Oh gosh, that brings back memories...
Butz, Poo, Ness, Alucard (seriously, who thought of just reversing the name dracula?)
Reddas got away with his name surprisingly well.
I seemed to be the only one that giggled whenever he was mentioned.
I always liked the name Alex from Lunar: The Silver Star (Story Complete).

Or Hiro was good from Lunar 2: Eternal Blue (Complete).
I really love the name Marisa...
Auron from Final Fantasy 10 is cool. I guess cause it sounds like "aura." =3

Having a signature is too mainstream. I'm not part of your system!

Auron just sounds like Aaron to me. I always liked the name Gafgarion(FFT).
If Auron sounds like Aaron, you are pronouncing it wrong.
Taloon
Megaman
Karnov
Kefka
Master Higgins
Necrosaro
FROG

Ziggurat 8.
Of the choices people have made, I really like Kefka and Gafgarion so far.

All you guys are good at this.

I dislike names that feel like they have absolutely zero etymology, and I hate names that are a blatantly obvious reference. It leaves me not knowing what to like.

Well actually it doesn't really sound like it I just associated it with that word because of the very similar spelling.

Edit: Oh wait, we're talking about video game characters with the best names, aren't we? In any case, of names that haven't been said already, I've always kind of liked Bonk, Nightmare, Joe Musashi, Captain Commando, Chelnov, Mother Brain, GCS-WT (makes sense when you know the development company's name), Bill Rizer, and probably others that haven't come to mind quite yet.
Faust, Testament, anything from Guilty Gear.

Also Kefka, Master Higgins, and Guybrush Threepwood.

I am so horrible with RPG names. I don't even know which of the famous RPG names I consider good or bad. They're just... there.

Wait, I take that back. OMEGA from Blindmind's game. >:D

It's funny because I have a close friend named John, who I call a lot, and my girlfriend's name is Crystal. So whenever I look at my list of recently made calls on my cell phone, I think "John, Crystal, OMEGA"!
