    Many years ago I took an on line test to see what my elf name would be purely out of boredom, and it told me my name was Handrosyll, so everytime I play an elf in game it is Handrosyll.

    The knife slides down the tip of my tongue.
    I'm finding pleasure in watching you writhe.
    I lean in just to lick the sweat off your face.
    I taste the reverence dripping down my throat.

    Reshanta is the name of the core in the Abyss that is inside the game world of a specific MMO that I'm probably not allowed to mention.

    Well, I wanted to name my character "Iris" but it was taken. I took Latin for 3 years and remembered that "ae" is pronounced like "I", added a "y" and made it "Aeyris".

    But most people pronounce it "air" "ris" lol.

    I used to have a noob wiz on HT which was called DarkShao. One time in an fb39 my guild leader typoed my name and called me DarkShoe. After that pretty much everyone in the guild called me Shoe. I quitted later and when I came back I made a new char in Sanc, this one. I though I could use the name Shoe and just randomly slapped Fury behind it. There ya go, ShoeFury.

    when i first started pwi i thought barbarians looked cool and i thought to myself they seem like the best DD class in pwi and the fact that huge pole-hammer thing they were holding reminded me about smacking for some reason so i decided to name my character BigSmack, but it turned out barbarians are the best tankers in pwi so i wanted to change it to BigTank or something also the "Big" comes from the fact barbarians are prolly da biggest mmorpg things that you can play as and its also the biggest thing in pwi

    Interesting topic b:laugh

    Desdi is the name of a character I write a book about. Basically all my PWI characters are based on my book's characters.
    The names of the characters are all made up by me. I love creating my own words/names b:chuckle

    I love the movie Lady Hawke, and the way Rutger Hauer says "Izabeau" makes it sound so beautiful.
    I made an archer soooo - Izabeau (Is A Bow) she was named!

    SweetSiren (BM) - sirens were known to lull the unsuspecting to their deaths. Muhahahaha!

    Triquetta (wizzy) - trinity ...maiden, mother, crone.

    KhiaraAnn - (sin) combo of an irish name and my own. Khiara = dark haired

    Also have a barb named Izabeau - was made to marry my rl husband's veno. b:chuckle

    I always though SaintToad was a cool name for a semi-corrupted cleric. Apparently my subconscious must have remembered the name from the Illuminati Trilogy by Anton Shea, where Saint Toad was some kind of Cthulian entity of corruption. I named my barb OakyThorson because he's big like a tree and I wanted to include a reference to Thor the thunder-god as well. My alt cleric is named _Montgomery_ because that's an old family name. My wizzie got named BrainEater because I made him to look like a zombie. My BM RustyNeedle has a mohawk and is kinda a punk.
