Well...sadly to say all the 'cool' names have been taken years ago.
Best bet to get a 'cool' name is think of something in another language or original or a name that has no meaning to it (like mine rofl just random letters...), that or best bet to wait for a new server and make a character with a 'cool' name on there. xD0 -
I always make names up myself. It's a good idea to think of a name and then do something to it, like adding or removing letters, switch letters or maybe spell the name backwards: eg. 'Maria' - that would be 'Airam' - sounds pretty good, right?
Or you could try one of the many websites with fantasy names?
And remember not to use numbers - that's not cool, haha!0 -
I like my name b:avoid
waterfall was already taken.. :x
I always try to make a character first, then come up with a name that suits My veno used to have a blue theme. So that's what I based the name on.
Just find something that suits your char and what you can live with for a while ^^ might also think what people will call you in squads and fac b:chuckle
Per example people call this char either fal or water. However I have a diff char called Dominil. People call her Dom, which means dumb in my language x'D[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Thanks Silvychar for the awesome sig
Characters:
waterfal - lvl 90 demon ferrari veno
Hazumi_chan - lvl 9x sage seeker0 -
Bellend has a ring to it...[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Finding a name that sounds good and is still unique can be hard. You may need to be creative. Take a name you like and vary it until you find one that's unique. Or just put together letters that you like the sound of. A lot of people will also put letter borders around their name (xCoolNamex or _AwesomeName_) if a name they like is already taken. I don't do that, but it's a personal preference thing.
What I tend to do is as Waterfal said: design the character's look and theme first, and then come up with a name. My little goth girl wizzy is named lilNightmare (as in, "oh god, I'm babysitting that little nightmare again tonight!") while my more knightly BM is named BladeMarion, a pun on the character from Robin Hood.
I find combining two words together often works, though finding a combo that's not taken can be tough. Again, that's a personal preference, since most of my characters already fit some sort of theme anyway.
So yeah. Get creative, and just use what sounds punchy to you. All our tastes are different, so we can't help much more than that.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Also to the above posts.
People started using things as /\ (substitute for an A or a upside down V),
/|/ (a type of N) or |\| (N) along with other thins with those slashes to create a name that may be taken all ready. Such as.
|\|ightmare.
And what not.0 -
Or think of some names of people or characters that mean something to you. My first char was a barb, and had the wolf appearance so I named him Deuslupus (Latin for Wolf God). Then DudeLupus because I thought it sounded cool.
I have a cleric named SaintBrendan (Saint Brendan is one of the early Irish monastic saints).
And finally my blademaster is named KennyPowers (character played by Danny McBride in the HBO show Eastbound and Down. Hilarious professional baseball pitcher down on his luck. I use fists a lot so it fits)
If it's "cool" to you, then that's what counts. You are the one who has to deal with looking at that name all the time, and being called by that name. So just make sure it's something you won't regret a week later XD[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0 -

Pretty much what is quoted. If you think its the coolest name on the server do other opinions really matter?
Also, as for the "being called by it" part most people will shorten your name for ease of use. While the panda's actual in-game name and forum name is longer, nobody refers to him as anything but Fuzzy. This has caused some people to regret their names, Fuzzy has seen it 1st hand.0 -
Wait for a new server and make a character with a good name on there. b:laugh0

Well, Vedovis was my first character and I was really proud of her because I felt like I'd made something new Then about a year later a friend told me she'd googled my name.. and, well.. my name is shared by an ancient roman god of healing. Should've been a male cleric rather than a veno XD[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

My idea of a 'cool' name is anything that doesn't include 'xX' or '\/' or 'X_x' or 'killer' or 'sexy' or 'hawt' or any body part or number unless you intended the name to be 'Number13'."Imagination is more important than intelligence."0

When you're making a name, it really depends on three factors.
- The Socialite: If you're gonna do faction play, you need to choose a name that abbreviates nicely (as emphasized by Fuzzy)
- The Aria: If you're playing on your own, pick a name that you like the sound of, doesn't really matter.
- The ****: If you want to be a royal pain in the *** to other players, make sure to pick a name that can be easily converted to abuse (e.g. Pen_Island)
Sorry if this is a necro, I've not been on here for too long.0 -
just look through old latin dictionary and mix words together =][SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]0
