I Need Your Help: Class Name Suggestions...

[Flynn]

Good Morning, All:

While I am enjoying Savage Worlds tremendously, I have lately been bitten by a creative bug. Having had over a year away from D&D, I'm looking at writing up my own house rules to capture the kind of game I would run if I ever were to run a D&D game again.

In terms of character classes, I know I'll have the big four: Fighter, Cleric, Rogue and Wizard. I also know that I want some additional classes that are essentially the combination of two of the original classes in one:

Fighter/Cleric
Fighter/Rogue
Fighter/Wizard
Cleric/Rogue
Cleric/Wizard
Rogue/Wizard

I imagine that I'll use Paladin or Holy/Unholy Warrior as the class for the Fighter/Cleric, and Sorcerer as the class for the Fighter/Wizard (based on the Battle Sorcerer from Unearthed Arcana). However, I have no idea what to call the other four combo-classes. I would prefer names that don't restrict the character concept, but truth be told, I'll take whatever inspiration I can get.

Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks In Advance,
Flynn

Some ideas:

Fighter/Cleric = Templar, Holy Warrior/Knight, Champion
Fighter/Rogue = Swashbuckler, Ruffian, Thug
Fighter/Wizard = Battlemage, Spellsword
Cleric/Rogue = (Divine) Trickster, Prankster
Cleric/Wizard = Theurge or Thaumaturge
Rogue/Wizard = (Arcane) Trickster, Beguiler, Rook

Lots of good suggestions already! Lets see if I can still be useful.

Fighter/Cleric: Templar and Crusader are classic, and Warrior-Priest, while descriptive, is no better than listing the classes. About the only way I can see you doing better is with "Order of ________", or "Knights of the ________ Temple" and the like.

Fighter/Rogue: Bravo, Rake/Rakehell, (Street) Tough, Strongarm

Fighter/Wizard: There are lots out there already...but just making stuff up? Spellsteel Adept, Black Lodge Initiate, Iron Spellweaver...

Cleric/Rogue: ???

Cleric/Wizard: Spectral Brothers, Manasophists

Rogue/Wizard: Arcane Liberator,
