dragonforger17 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Okay honestly I know many of us who use random name generators some of us come up with cool names on our own. I know the immortals are supposed to change names that do not fit but I mean come on I thought up the the name traf right well i thought it was a good first name never did i think it was fart spelled backwards. However it was recently pointed out to me by Belegriel. I was just wondering do the immortals literally have to check names a 100 different ways for it to be considered a good name in fl this is like the 20th time ive had to change a name over something. I am just really wondering and who else has this happened to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chromatic Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Well, the only characters that ever seem to get off the ground with me are the ones where I just push buttons and then clean it up to where it's pronouncable. I gave up on trying to come up with a great name a long time ago. But my definition of great is different from others I suppose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belegriel Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 http://hamete.org/yafnag/ That's the addy for the name generator I use. I haven't had a problem with my morts names in the 6 months or so I've been using it. Before that the one I used had a tendancy to give you some real lousy ones if you didn't pay close attention to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zrothum Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 I don't use a generator and my name change...normally I don't get name changes, but the ones I do, I don't understand lol I dont argue I just change it...but sometimes I think "Wow why didnt I see that?" I think it may have been Belegriel that changed mine too, no....it was Anithraril. But yea...it was two words put together or something i can't remember. Was really weird though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 I think it may have been Belegriel that changed mine too' date=' no....it was Anithraril. But yea...it was two words put together or something i can't remember. Was really weird though[/quote'] I used to come up with names by taking words, putting them together and changing their spellings. One of my very first chars was even named after Engineering equipment, but luckily nobody caught on. Don't do it anymore though. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chayesh Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Actually, I pointed out that Traf was Fart spelled backwards. Belegriel just changed it. And yes, I do look at them backwards, phonetically, and sometimes Google them. And yes, sometimes ones that should be caught get through. Anyone recall Pnusin Jermoweth? (HINT: Sound it out) Some are innocent mistakes, like Traf, some are people being lame, like Pnusin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetfighter Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 OK I can't stop laughing at that, so it means its time for bed. But i've only used a name gen. a couple of times, I usually don't have that much trouble coming up with them, although now that i've said that i'll never think up of another one.

Questioner Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 That's retarded....I remember having my first name changed because I thought it would be cool to have a ninja named after an egyptian god. I think ahmed or something. Ever since then I just made up random names in my head. I'll make a couple randomly right now...Hitay, Yawerino, Loryinr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deykari Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 I love those scary evil names though. Have you noticed, that if someone has a scary name they're always good at PK? When type who and you see "Ched" and "Qxqza'qchixxx" you just know which one of the two is going to own the Pbase. Dey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raargant Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 What pissed me off was he actually managed to make it in Knight before we noticed, after someone reported it to us. ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirax Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Did he make it to sir P Nus? Sorry couldnt resist. Would be madening though not noticing it. The sad thing is someone actually took time to think that one through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he was pronouncing it Nu-sin too...and never realized that you could actually break it down and see it for over two weeks before finding a way to make it look bad?

Questioner Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 he wasn't trying to make it look bad, he was trying to keep people like you from making up dum names...ie. Pikachu and ash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
