If it's an RPG I use the original names, at least the first time I play. Except when I played FFVI the first time... :D Locke turned into Loke (as in the Swedish name for the Trickster God Loki), Terra into Terrae, and Shadow into Kage... And such silly things... :D

I name it after my own name, but in different languages than English since it looks cooler.

I only name a character if I have to, I prefer to use the presets. It's a pain in the donkey when your talking to a friend about a game, andd you both have different names for different characters. -_-;;But when I have to, I usually call the male character: Dealis, and the female character: Serias.

Usually the preset name, but sometimes El Mido, cause Mido is the funny-looking kokiri from Ocaraina of Time

I took advice from my friend and came up with a short nickname to use in all RPGs (my favorite type of games). Hawk it was. To tell the truth, I've never played the female version of any game, be it Pokemon or Sword of Mana. When there are female characters I can name though, I used to name them Sarah, and more recently, Jenna <- name of crush :blink: The name Nova and Flash seem pretty cool too and for games like Pokemon where I get pets I often name them so.

For a boy's name I usually use my nickname, Vince. If i'm forced to choose a girl's name I go with Nanami all the time. So i'm never really short on names :blink:

Default name unless I think the main character's name is really bad. (Ex. I didn't like "Butz" for Final Fantasy V).

If there's no original name at the start then I usually use my own. (or in some cases the name is just weird like Butz. Butz?...c'mon....)
