Something to draw inspiration from: Viking names

 

 

Earl Joebob.

 

Jarl Joebob then.

Female Vailian Paladin: Mariancelle

 

Or a male Barbarian with a viking name.

 

Thanks for that list Tartantyco. :)

In all seriousness, I'll have to see what inspires me when I get the game and have read the manual, some of the other materials, and am more familiar with the lore. Something always pops to mind, as I generally have no troubles coming up with fantasy names. But it's entirely possible that I may use 'Groot' somehow.

Since I'm planning on playing some kind of musketteer I'm probably going for something Spanish/Italian, mimicking a Vailian name.

It'd be nice if in the character creation there were some pregenerated lore-appropriate names we could cycle through, determined by gender/ethnicity/etc.

 

Yes, like in Lord of the Rings Online. They tell you common names, prefixes and suffixes for different races and the areas they come from. I'd love something like that for this game.

They should put a Markov chain name generator in the game. It's super easy to implement and with a decent base set of names it produces really good, useful names.

My hero's name will be "Finn", in honour to the bravest hero of all cartoons, Adventure Time protagonist.  :no: 

 

I must find a proper surname for him....
