Hi there. I am just starting my new character and i cant think of a name

Can you ppl use some imagination (which i have none of - look at my current name <--

)

Also my new charr is another ranger (so nothing like Shadowey Caster pls

)... but this time I am going throught the game properly without being ran anywhere etc..

It needs to include Shadow in it

I see three kinds of names in GW:

1. Names that are used to show how 1337 the users are (and generally are letterspaced and one word)
2. Names that are ripoffs/soundalikes (including rude words, short quotes, and Legolas/Drizzzzt/Aragorn/whatever)
3. Names that are roleplay and apparently have some further meaning with the user.

I usually go with #3 and use a combination of Google/babelfish and www.20000-names.com to make mine.

In your case, I'd look up "shadow" in other languages, see what you like, then pick a first name from 20k names that matches the feel. You might be pleased with the results.

Here's an example:

Shadow in Portugese is "sombra"

A decent boy's name in Portugese is Justino (meaning upright; righteous - perfect for a R/Mo).

Justino Sombra

Don't like it? Rinse, repeat. At least it will be unique.

thx for the replies, theyre all helpfull, especially that 20000 names.com

i thaught of the perfect name just a minute ago.... Shadow Scout *drools*

but alas its taken

IF anyone with a character with the name Shadow Scout pls delete the charr

Oh, don't let that disuade you; if all the Drizzt Dourden out there had the courage to go forth boldly as
Drizzzt Dourden
Drzzt Dourden
Drzzzt Douurden
Drizt Do Urden
....

I'm sure you can be really original and be one of the dozens of
Shadovv Scout
Shaddo Scout
Shadow Skout
Shadowed SCout

and so on

And really, we need more Legolasses and laddies too. Maybe Drizzt Greenleaf or Legolas Do'Urden...

You want Shadow in your name, and your forum name is Cursed..

Cursed Shadow maybe?

lil warning about using a different language in your name.. ppl assume you speak it..

Ive got a war named "samuel the farmer" in french.. EVERY mission ive done someone starts talking french to me... sanctum cay I was afk while being ran ( its my 6th war 18th char, I delete them when they get 1 mil exp or I get tired of lookin at them) anywho... I come back and check the chat log after gettin a soda and using the bathroom to see a conversation basically like this
" you speak french?"
" where you from?"
"I live in ontario"
"you should join my guild" ( im not in a guild)
" theres over 60 of us that all speak french"
" we are always looking for new members"
" are you ignoring me?"
" thats kinda rude, you should at least say no thank you"
" red engine red engine red engine and I even invited you to join our guild JERK!!"

all in french..

when I came back I understood red engines and asked what was up and explianed to the guy im american but use french names and dont speak french I speak bablefish
