Um... if anyone has read Mac Hall (now Three Panel Soul) there was a news post years ago about how the artist comes up with names for characters in video games. He smashes his fingers into the keyboard and adds vowels where he needs to...

A few years ago, I was playing an online DnD game (play by post RP), and I needed a character name. I smashed my hands down and got lfndrt so I added a few vowels... its now my go to name in ANY game

When I first started getting into reading Fanatasy, the first real fantasy book I ever read was J.R.R. Tolkien's The Silmarillion. Galador is actually a famous Duke/Knight in Middle Earth,and he became the first Lord of Dol Amroth, and I always found the name interesting. When I played my first ever online RPG, Baldur's Gate (yeah, I am that old lol) I was stuck for a name, and Galador popped into my head, I thought it would work well, and has been my screenname and gamertag ever since!

Also, whenever I play a female character in a game, she is always named Galadriel the Light-Bearer, from J.R.R Tolkien's Unfinished Tales, but I still haven't figured out why I use the Light-Bearer part, seeing as I usually play evil races and characters!

English Russia.

Mine comes from one of my old DandD stories, where for the whole session I was weeing in a corner (rolling 1's, we said the character was going for a pee) and at the finale where we were facing a necromancer and a vampire who had teamed up against us andcharcter went nuts and killed them both stone dead in one blow (each)

so i became known as the Necrovamp slayer, and the slayer part dropped off.

Oh man, the first monster I see I'm going to sneak up behind him, whip out my wand, and shoot my magic all over his ass.

Mine is a little stretch...

... back in the days when I did some "grey hat" stuff/simple poking around where I shouldn't be looking I would choose twists on houshold items as false IDs.

One I liked was Ian Coleman (I Am Mustard)

My nick is a twist on me:

My surname is Bone, My father's surname is Bone, I am son of bone thus to twist add the ph instead of the f and take the greek for bone you get Sonophos.

In nigh on 20 years it has never been taken on any site or BBS unless I have been there before (please do not start)
