Sry to agree Anet, but when I read some of the names, I do feel the same way as the above comments that have been stated.

Molotov pretty much annoys me the most, It is clever, but how long did it take to change that "C" into a(n) "R"...seriously...lol

I mean Ive entered some of the contests in the past and stopped bcuz in the end most of the winning entries from the different kinds of contests just baffles the mind. (Im not saying they were bad, most of them were good be it a design or name, I just know everytime I entered I knew mine was original)

If I only knew that I could use the most simplest words, change them into GW-related and entered them, I would probably have a better chance of winning.

Overall, its Anet's choice and they have the right to choose w/e. So no biggie.

/no offence
/just imo

Ones I like:
Gordam Griefgiver
Gallow Nooseknitter
Borrguus Blisterbark
Cevius the Fragile
Ouron Bloodshadow
Nevaross Cindersoul

Molotov Rocktail is my all-time fav boss name now. My entry was Heimdar Sorrowsson.

I thought Felix the Charr was hilarious. It's way better than all the names that are just 4 different words compounded together. I mean heres one off the top of my head Grimsmash Rubblethorn. It's dull.

In case you don't realize it's a play on Felix the Cat.

Molotov Rocktail is genius...I couldn't stop laughing.

And I'm a finalist (Farrow Firefist), which is nice

I know Felix the Charr is a play on Felix the Cat. That doesnt make it any better. It's very unoriginal. Molotov Rocktail was the best, even if it's just a single letter changed. I can imagine it perfectly on a boss. Felix the Charr is just WTF. It must sound better in another language.

One of the finalists had Razortongue in it.
Did everyone at Anet have a spaz and forget there's a Razortongue in the game already?

Oh and some of those names are truly lame. But at least there are some good ones in the list.

Felix's Stick?

Actually Felix is the ONLY name I like from the list - sounded sweet the first time i went though the names and is the only one I will remember.
Sweet entry!

some pretty cool names. molotov rocktail is pretty cool
felix the char must be a referance to felix the cat....bad referance though

theres some really bad names that got through though. mostly because there bad copies of others.

Gallow Nooseknitter - lol that made me laugh
Fenyr Dreamseer - reminds me of fenyr off harry potter, i like the name fenyr
Caretaker of the Shadows- tooo long
Gunther Ironfist - ironfist...bleh, i didnt like this one. my mates got ironfist in his characters name. he made it in prophecies and people think its a referance to nightfalls ironfist

My entry was "Nlarg The Nihilist"

I think anet didn't pick mine because I didn't think they would know what a Nihilist was so I put the definition in my entry. I think because I put in the definition the person judging my name got upset and just threw my name aside because they were mad.

I really do wonder if anyone submitted a name such as Chuck Norris. I know for a fact if I were to be the judge that would be the only name i'd choose, the rest would go in the bin.
