There are several games that you can name certain charecters , mostly in RPG's .so what do you name those charecters, (your own name , your favirote charecter, your nickname, or the defult name...etc)?I always name the charecter my name of course if it was a male charecter, or if there are multiple charecters you can name i choose the best one to name my name. B)

I use the character's same name.

if the game has a preset name then I use that, if not I use my name.

for me, if its a boy, i named it after my crush..if a girl, i use my nameguys, i have a question.. do you use the same name in all games?

usualy i name it with my favourite character name.

by the way, what's your favorite character game?

If the game has its own own name for the characters, I'd use those to keep the 'original feel' of the game, else I like to name my characters Night (whether boy or girl), and Shadow if there's a second character, from the third character on I just pick whatever was my favourite character from the latest book I read~

Normally I would use my own name, but for some Pokemon games I would call myself Ash or Brandon. XD

More recently, default names. Sometimes these aren't available, so I make up something that sounds good, or, like more recently, something that interests me. I've named Harvest Moon stuff after the Takeda clan, whose names I got from the movie Kagemusha.

i found that it's best just to leave the name it is, unless it's japanese and transcribed into english and some of the traditional name got changed to something like " Bob" or "Tom" >_>/. then i have to change it lol.

If it's a dude I name it D'rext, and if it's a lady type, usually Sarah.Unless it's an RPG, then I usually don't touch the names.
