Unique Names Thread

[JANK]

Just before the crash I started this thread and never got the chance to check up on it so I'm gonna redo it. Since a lot of us hurt for name ideas (chars, towns, etc.) in our games I thought it would be good to deticate a thread to comming up with unusual names.

My thought was that names can be created by using common words like a lot of Japanese do in their games (a lot of real names come from common words as well, like most of them). Lets try to come up with a whole bunch of names that can be used for our RPGs along this line.

Once again don't laugh at my names:

Rain
Pain
Duck
Spoon
Knife
Dagger
Alto
Viola
Banshee
Cob
Piano
Kite
Oak

I'll come up with many more later. If your names are in another language please put the translation in parenthesis if you know it.

Re: Unique Names Thread

Jank, you have to stop. Seriously. You're very not-liked because you keep making topics. That would be forgivable if all your topics didnt suck, but they do. I'm not trying to be mean, I'm trying to help you.

Don't listen to Ryner. And I like you. He's just a jerk

Re: Unique Names Thread

I may be a jerk, but I'm a correct jerk.

P.S. I'm actually just correct. I'm not a jerk.

Re: Unique Names Thread

You left out Scat.

[Ryner]

Re: Unique Names Thread

I think Viola, Piano, and Spoon make up for a lack of Scat.

Re: Unique Names Thread

Oh, I love creativity. Sadly, your names are nothing but crap. You actually think Spoon and Piano are good names for a person or place? My cat, who's dead by the way, could do better.

Okay then lets see you do better Mr.Wise guy. You think Cloud and Squall are good names? They are horrible but they are amusing and they work in some wierd way the same way my names work.

Re: Unique Names Thread

Your names only work in a "Let's be retarded" sense.
