    Well I'm Irish, and there is a godess in Irish mythology named Aine, who among other things is associated with the sun. So I was thinking, sun = light, and combined the two into Lightaine! Besides Lightaine is sooooo pwetty for a name don't you think?

    Lol GTFO nab

    b:chuckle This thread is also on the Off-Topic Discussion sub-forums but heres why I chose my name lol, oh yeah starting from the beginning :3

    Well not all of you know, but my name is Hope in real life and anyways, I was bored one day (obviously xD) and came by this game right? Oh before I forget this is in Harshlands at the moment. So I'm thinking of a name right?

    Since I can't think of a name, I go at first with random names which I can't remember at first. The characters were obvious fails and I kept on making all these alts and stuff. However at one point, I was like, "Hmm, why not use my own name?" And because of that, my blade master ForeverHope was made.

    However, about a month or two into the game, I decided to make a cleric because well, this guild I was in had like no clerics and I wanted to help the guild right? Thinking for another name, I'm stumped and can't think of a good name for a cleric.

    Then I think, "Wait, ForeverHope, I used my name there, why can't I do the same again?" So I'm thinking of names that end with Hope. After a billion minutes, I go "I'm Hope, I'm being Hope, Hope, Being, Hope, Being... Being Hope... BeingHope!" and thats how my name was started out.

    After that, I made all of these characters that ended with Hope and I joined 4/5 servers (Now 5/6) as BeingHope. The reason its 4/5 was because someone took my name in another server! b:shocked

    So thats how I became BeingHope really b:chuckle And please, don't call me Being or BH... It confuses me xD I'm just Hope if you didn't know lol.

    But yah, thats me b:laugh

    Shadow represents darkness (going demon at lv 90) and Storm because I took Raging Tide server by storm

    Therefore: ShadowStorm
    As I look to the Horizon, I know danger is coming
    Fearing my power as a BladeMaster may not be enough,
    Ninja and Samarai skills failing, I look for someone to help avert the incoming disaster. Who will answer my call? Will it be the seeker? Or the Mystic? Or even an Earthguard at all...
    All I know is Darkness has come once again.
    And this time Light may not be enough to repel it...
    Genesis is upon us. Are you prepared for it?

    For my main Veno I automatically thought of Vixen, but wanted something a bit different then just that. So, I came up with Madam to put in front of it, as I'm married in RL (to my in-game hubby) and Miss isn't really an option anymore LOL Funny part is I didn't know, at the time, that my hubby named his main Barb MasterLucian (Lucian from Underworld - he added the Master since it alone was already taken) - guess it was meant to be for us :D

    As for my main alt Cleric Narielle - I got that off a website with an Elven Name Generator. My last name came up as "Nariel" so I added the extra "LE" at the end to make it feminine and prettier :D

    My Archer Audriela I got her name off of a meaning of names website where I created a variation on Audry (which means noble strength) by adding the "iela" at the end instead :D

    My Wiz Alleandra I also got off a meaning of names website. I created it as a slight variation on Alandra (meaning defender of Man) by adding another "L" and an "E" in there :D

    My 2 Pyschics Ianassa and Klaea are names of a type of Sea Nymphs called The Nereides found in Homer's The Odyssey :D

    Pick a random word in dictionary.

    *flips through book with closed eyes*

    This is hard, better use my hands

    *flips through book with hands, and has his eyes closed*

    Word found: IGNITE

    Need a non-word name, or else it's lame.

    IGNITE backwards is ETINGI

    Etingi...no, too weird sounding

    Eting? No...

    Ting? That's a sound effect, but I can replace the vowel

    Tang, Teng, Ting, Tong, Tung, or sometimes Tyng

    Tyng sounds alright.
