[QUOTE="Oryan77, post: 3546913, member: 18701"] People [b]love[/b] to talk about their characters on message boards. So how about a chance to make the character famous? Or I should say, [b]just the name, race, & gender[/b] famous? I don't really like those name generators out there. It's also pretty hard to find lists of good quality names to use for different races. I haven't seen this done here before, so I thought it would be really useful for people. So lets list every single character that you can remember that has appeared in a game you played or DMed. The names can come from PCs or NPCs...the more names the better! Please follow these rules when making your list because I would like to make an excel file for these for everyone to use. Not following these rules will make my job harder ;) [COLOR=DarkOrange] [b]1.[/b] List [b]only[/b] the characters first & last name (no titles such as Lord, Captain, ect) followed by a comma. Then write the characters race followed by a comma, and then the characters gender. It should look like my list of names below. This is just a name list for racial types, so we don't need a history about his background or his profession :) [b]2.[/b] The name should be somewhat original. So no Raistlin Majeres or even Bob Do'Urdens. [b]3.[/b] The name should not be silly. So no Bud the Weisers or Larry Big Pants & his Gnome sidekick Floofy McSnapplebutt. [b]4.[/b] It would be best if they were fantasy sounding names. Billy Smith isn't very fantasy sounding. It's easy to find name lists for standard names, so we don't really need another. [b]5.[/b] If any info is missing, such as race or gender, I will make something up when adding it to the list. If the race is an obscure race, I may categorize it as "other" instead. I may also not include the name if I don't think it fits with the list. [/COLOR] *edit* I have created an Excel file with your character names in it. Read this post for more info & to DL the file: [url]http://www.enworld.org/forum/5095886-post143.html[/url] So I'll start off...here's my list of names that I can think of right now: Drog, Half-Giant, male Giff, Half-Elf, male Vanlandimir, Elf, male Cyriss, Tielfing, male Obexx, Fire Genasi, male Ash, human, male Uriah Hatchus, Human, male Koritha the Blessed, Tiefling, female Jackal, Human, male Parisa Sylow, Half-Elf, female Burm Delatone, Half-Orc, male Eliaena Gregor, Half-Elf, female Abraxus, Tiefling, male Nabaelba, Gnome, male [/QUOTE]
