For RPG games with no character voiceovers, or for those with no preset name & the main character name is never spoken (ex. Dragon Quest), I usually go with Hariel (if you seen Ronin Warriors, you know where the name comes from).

In most RPGs, I usually leave the default name up.. but then certain games (such as Harvest Moon), I change into what ever name I can come up with :)

I'm a girl and if I was using a girl character...can't really put my name in cos it's too long. So instead I have...Lily. For the guy I usually have Vega or Xeon. Depends on what game though as well. Default names are ok.

I go with the default names on the first time through a game. Second time, if it is a boy, Drake or Drayakis.
