I don't use my real name unless it's like a sim/RPG style game... usually somethng that fits them theme, like for Pokemon, I might just use "Blue" or whatever.

it depends on the game, usually rpg's & i make it up on the spot,my mate had ff7 for his first game one of his files he named cloud sephiroth, so he constantly said how much he hated sephiroth (himself)it lost its appeal & got really annoying when your playing the game after a while.

I usually give a character it's default name but if I don't know it I give it a name that suit it, like mine.

It all depends on the game for me:If it's a Real-Time or Turn-Based Strategy game I will usually go with the default name or (if it's horrificly bad) use something that sounds awesome from a Fantasy Book or RP that I've read/written. My most common names used (after the default ones) are:HruinHiroErikTournesol (hahaha)If it's something like a shooter-game or action-game with a CoC mode (Create Own Character for those who didn't know) I usually stick with default names (for the former) and make up some junk fantasy gibberish (for the latter)

I've never liked preset names, and so I just make them up or use the names of Celtic gods, mostly Camulus the god of war.

I usually leave it to default, but sometimes i change it around, and laugh at the dialog when text appears(For games that use voice instead of text, like FF7,PS2)Such as..."Hey! Wait! BootyBump dont leave me!"or.."Come on butthed, you can do better than that!"
