I usually just use the default name, unless it's really dumb. Take Jack from Harvest Moon for example. Stupid name, so I end up just using my name. If I play as a chick that has a dumb default name, I either name her Heather or Raine.

ah. i was hoping to find this post. anyways im 16 now and usually go with default, but when i was younger i remember playing dot.hack infection. i loved the name Blackrose so i started nameing everybody in my games after different colored roses (main character was always Bluerose) and it usually went over the character limit for most of my games so i had to abbv. them (Bluerose = Blurose, Yellowrose = Ylwrose) I still remember my lineup for good old FF9, Zidane - Bluerose (Blurose) Vivi - Redrose, Steiner - Whiterose (Whtrose) Garnet - Pinkrose (Pnkrose) Freya - Yellowrose (Ylwrose) Amarant - Orangerose (Orgrose) Quina - Greenrose (Grnrose) and Eiko - Violetrose (Vltrose) thats how I roll!

I almost always name those character the name of the game they're on. (e.g. Pokemon Diamond would equal the name Diamond)

I think of an impressive sounding name, use the alias K-Rip, or have a really random one, such as Dr. Hobo
