Names

[Zain]

Hey guys, most of you enjoy helping people, and so I figured I'd come to you with a way you can help me.

I'm trying to come up with a game, and with that game I need names. Names that are unusual, but not ridiculous.

Example of Ridiculous: Deathcrusher Megasmash

I'm looking for names for story characters in a futuristic society.

Zain Anduin (Doesn't really exist) is a good example, but so is Ian Lawrence (Does exist).

So here's where you guys come in, post as many name as you can think of that fits the description. I've tried random name generators, but they generally just take names from the census's, and don't have the right style that I'm looking for.

So if you come up with something creative and unique, post it here if you'd like to help a brother out.

Thanks.

[Vuk]

Vuk Brankovic is probably the kewlest name out there. :) (But use it with respect )

lol
How's:
Garad Hearthelburne (that is a real name. A little puzzle for those who consider themselves history geeks. It will take some researching )

[Ayachuco]

If you have any female characters then Petra and some Ukranian surname would be a good bet. In fact just name all your characters after russian people, they always sound futuristic.
How about Andrue Vayeur or Vistnik Movorix.

The spoiler below should only be read by Zain.

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

P.S. Zain, are you going to use these names for your RPG game I've heard you're going to start I hope really soon???

[Zain]

Yes, it's similar to The Castle but based in a mansion with multiple levels and a courtyard in the center. I believe that's the way it is, I haven't made the map yet but I've drawn it out on paper.

I plan on making this one absolutely HUGE, totally based on either completing the "quest" or being the last man standing. I'm not sure which just yet, if either.

I'm going to post a game concept and see if people can come up with better ideas than the ones i've come up with myself.

I've always liked the name Petra. And names with lots of V's have never been my love. I've always liked A's, N's, I's, etc... like in Zain. Keep them coming though! I love this stuff.

[woad&fangs]

Waldinger is an awsome last name(or first name or nickname). You could also try Colton.

[RoadKill]

RoadKill - coolest name ever. But maybe you could use this name for some brute rebel, that would be awsome adn would fit in well.

Otherwise a futuristic male name would be - Zech Holoski
Female - Flora Alexandros (Don't use that one, cause I'm using it)

[Zain]

Alright, no Flora.

Okay guys, I get that you like your own names, don't overuse the whole, "my name's the best" thing. Thanks for the suggestions so far. Keep 'em coming!

[IrishArmenian]

If I'm writing fiction, I usually mix up the first names and surnames of family, friends, acquaintances, etc.
Off the top of my head:
Colin Ness
James Nighosian
Gdrig Ter-Minaesyan

[FactionHeir]

Just get some names off a Sci-fi book really. If you are really bored, use battletech.

[Omanes Alexandrapolites]

BTW, Zain, if you are looking for names for mafia members, sould there be any in your game, this site may interest you.

[Zain]

Thanks, I've tried google searches and now I'm just wanting some other people's names. Thanks though. I was Cosimo Screwball.

[Bijo]

A few quick ones I invent at the moment:

Zenn Xandros
Blaine Kolos
Sophia Philos
Mona Arete
Steward Jack
Ted Rant
Arthur Standwell
Ive Yper

And because you asked for it:

Gunslinger Octo
Sixkiller Hijack
Robotic Arm
Quickill Auto
ED-209
Hoo Leegan

[Vuk]

George W. Bush sounds like a good SuperHero name. I don't know...to cheesey? :P

[Strike For The South]

Han Solo

[woad&fangs]

Just had a brilliant idea Find an NFL roster and just start picking and rearanging names.

Ingle Martin III
Samkon Gado(you Gado believe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Noah Herron
Kareem Gbaja-Biamila(I spelled that horribly, the announcers just call him KGB)
A.J. Hawk

Go Packers!!!!!!!!!!!

[Slug For A Butt]

Skyle Logan sounds like he should exist in a futurey weirdo railing against the rules kind of way.
Ainur Soretudae would fit something I'm sure... he already may have.
How about Jimmy O'Bondy? A New York (allegedly of Irish descent) secret agent who specialises in man to man slayings using nothing but potatoes in various guises?

Hell, I thought this was going to be easy. But I see your predicament now, it's not as easy as it seemed at first glance. Unless you like Eastern European or very English names (which have both been done to death), it's hard to find a name with class that emotes anything.

[Decker]

I can only think of nicknames for some odd reasons so I'll post a few:
Caveman
"Randy" Andy
Rex
Rex Landis <- A actual last name
Zed Leppelin the III
Jimi King
Axle
Rosary Jones
Jack Oswald
Leonardo

[Rodion Romanovich]

A good idea might be to list some 50 common syllables in existing sci-fi names, then randomly pick a random number of these and put them together. Every fifth name or so you come up with this way may even be acceptable...

Where's Brett Farve

[woad&fangs]

Where's Brett Farve

First off, It is spelled Favre. Secondly, I'm guessing Zain is looking for less well known names.

[Decker]

Just makin sure that you are true fan there Wald. And names like.... Jack Smith could work.

BTW, Zain, what names have you come up with so far?

[Ayachuco]

[QUOTE=Decker]Just makin sure that you are true fan there Wald.QUOTE]
Why didn't you ask him Vince Lombardi or Bart Star or even Bubba Franks or Donald Driver; what about Tauscher guy at right guard. And what names did you come up with, Zain?

[Zain]

I'll throw up a list of them tomorrow morning or after school, i'm signing off.

[Ronin]

I always found Hugo to be a pretty kickass first name....for some mysterious reason

[Zain]

Sounds goofy to me...

Ronin is a good one though.

[Ayachuco]

How about instead of using Lee as a last name; use Le as a variant of it.
the only reason I'm promoting Le is b/c its my last name
And instead of Nicholas, use Nicolae. Some movies that feature the anti-christ usually name him Nicolae.
You sure have a lot heart suffixes for last names? which is no problem.

[woad&fangs]

Have to agree with Draconian. Nicolae Le sounds like a great name for a villain or one of those heros that no one is quite sure what side they are on.

[Rodion Romanovich]

Yes, "Le" sounds very scary, it makes me remember that scary country with that scary poster Louis
