Of my recent characters, my monk was a smart-@$#ed snip at people who were always complaining about Factions changes and whatnot ("Crimea River"). And my ranger ("Kay Challis") comes from one of the few comic books that someone was actually able to get me to read and really like (bonus points to anyone who guesses it). It's also a name which that author borrowed from Yeats ("Kay" originally having been "K." and "Challis" being an allusion to chalice, or the Holy Grail).

My kitty's name is also probably obvious: Cheshire.

Tips of the hat to Tobin Spirit Guide / Egon E Spengler, Hammered was Kvan, and the Moa Lisa.
I kind of cheated, but I searched Kay Challis on Wikipedia and she belongs to the comic books Doom Patrol. Kind of interesting, Doom Patrol seems extremely similar to the Xmen, but are supposed to have a unique twist to their team. Cool stuff, I'll be expecting those bonus points in the mail.

I personally enjoy sprinkling my characters names with little meanings or references- some obvious, most appropriate, some not so much

I mostly do PvP, and my PvP name is Beneath The Mire, after the Opeth song. But somebody took the name while I didn't have the PvP slot used, so now I go by I Mire I or something containing 'Mire'. >:|

I was only joking leet-speak is more tongue-in-cheek than anything else, I've never seen anyone use it completely seriously. I've never seen anyone respond to it seriously either, until now :P

Fallot, I am truly (sheepishly) sorry. I was way over-the-line with the tone of my reply, and it was certainly not fair.

I know of more than a few folks who take their "leet-speak" a trifle more seriously, or who use it in a more elitist manner, and it aggravates the heck out of me. Sadly, a consequence of that is that I tend to over-react a bit much. (Yes, I know it's silly to get bent out of shape by something so trivial; I can't help it!)

I apologize profusely.

Well my first character got named Deanna Frost for some reason, later I thought I should put "Frost" in all of my future characters' names as well. Mostly they've been normal names, but the latest character got named Grand Arbiter Frost, a slight nod towards the british metal band Bal-Sagoth.

Kainui is my middle name, so I pretty much RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO that out there as much as possible along with Nevets and Iuniak. They're part of my name backwards, the last two are anyway. I try to have a good hidden meaning.

Like Harry Beamis. Do you know who he is? He's the character of the person in the twilight zone who had thick glasses and they fell off his head and broke and he was the last man alive from a hydrogen bomb because he read so much and was in a bank safe.

I tend to choose names based on professions or characters of my own creation. My main charrie, Ninetail Trickster, for example, is a mesmer. Hence, the pseudo-kitsune theme seemed appropriate. More recently, I've cycled (and recycled) through various characters, all named according to their build. ('Heavy Chainer', for example, has been my most recent tried/deleted. Warrior/Ranger. I'm not explaining my idea; it sucked. xP)

My names always reflect my characters RP role; it's an RPG so I think they should have names that could work in an RP.
Yep, actually I'm not even sure that ppl had surnames before official census came into being, and then they simply took surnames from their occupations (i.e. smith, thacher, hunter) or even personal traits.

All my names are RP too, I'm afraid...

These names have a suspicious lack of "pwned u" and "lolz" in them!

One of the most amusing names I saw was some battery necro called "Energizer Bunny"

I've noted that you can usually spot an IWAY team a mile off simply by reading their names. The leader of the group is almost invariably a 'Lord' something or other. The trapper's titles generally contain the word 'Trap' or a variant, in case you weren't already aware of their role. The tainted Necro will also give his proffession away by placing 'Tainted' somewhere in his title, often suffixed by one or more x's; e.g. X Tainted X , Xx Tainted Xx, etc.

And for the record, the most delightful and witty name I have seen so far is 'Smelly Poo Poo Bum.' Genius..

Scout Master Syra (Ranger)

- derived from the npc Master Scout Kiera in Henge of Denravi. Syra is the name of a special girl.

Violent Syra (Warrior)

- loves blood bath, violence, in-your-face smash smash.

Lets Go Bowling (Assassin)

- i just want an upbeat name for a female assassin. and coincidentally, when it runs, it assumes the "bowler stance".

Tom Cruise Jr (Mesmer)

- Maverick of Top Gun, Ethan Hunt of MI series, ex wife of Nicole, father to Suri, Scientologist, couch hopper. made during the betas and was chosen coz i ran out of names to give to a mesmer. Tom Cruise was taken way back then so i put the "Jr".
