Aethmud (male elf Monk/Scout)
Elleana (female elf Ranger)
Micate (male human Warlock)
Rhyond (male human Knight)
Ruby (female half-elf Sorcerer)
Tilly (female dwarf Archivist)

I like those names QL.
They seem to project a sense of character, race, and class all at once.

In the game I am currently running:

Alvan Volsaiga (Human Wizard)
The Thousand-Eyed Viper (Dragonborn Barbarian)
He of the Broken Hall (Dwarf Paladin)
The Snow Raven (Human Warlord)
The Sun's Beloved Twin Fangs (Eladrin Ranger)

We are using fancy epithets rather than real names for a particular plot reason important to the campaign. They can be a bit of a mouthful while running combat, but I really like them.

Cool, this is similar to the types of names my players picked when we were playing Exalted. Something interesting we did was to make up a word or two as a "name" and say that in the PC's language it meant the particular title... basically to cut down on saying the title over and over again.

Let's see

Lihanne Summertouched (my Eladrin Fighter)
Razkon (dragonborn ranger)
Allastreiana (human wizard)
Turin (dwarven fighter)
Melissa Burglecut (halfling warlock)
Sarah (Paladin of Wasilla, human)

I am mostly running LFR recently. I am currently running a dedicated group of LFR players through Scepter Tower. Their names are:

Skullcrusher - Orc Barbarian
Freya - Human Paladin
Tharis Dun - Human Wizard (Yes, his name is a bad pun on the god)
Claire Bennett - Elven Cleric (Once again, yes...she heals the party and she's named after the character from Heroes)

and the other 2 names escape me right now.

Although, the most memorable names were from my old Eberron game. All of the players jointly decided to play warforged. They were discussing the fact that the books said that often warforged like to keep their military titles and often have names chosen for them by other people. They joked about what that would mean if they took it to the extreme. Then they decided to do it. They all agreed...who was I to argue? They came up with a background story that their commanding officer was drinking heavily after the Last War ended. He didn't have much respect for warforged, so he told them all he just couldn't leave without having names. So he assigned them all names and ranks as they were discharged from the army. This was also their excuse why any characters who replaced them when they died also had stupid names. They were all from the same unit. So the names in the campaign were:

Commodore Sixty-Four - Wizard
Private Eye - Scout
General Admission - Bard
Major Malfunction - Can't remember
Private Parts - Artificer
Captain Crunch(who changed their name to Captain Fluffy later) - Fighter

I'm sure there was a couple more that I'm not thinking of right now.

Ah, that reminds me of the warforged in our last campaign who decided that he'd go by a number, and that number would be 1337. He was obviously trying to go for "leet speak". We started calling him 37 instead and that one kinda stuck.

The player had to leave that game before the campaign wrapped, so the DM took 37 and had him join our enemies (a group of warforged and warforged sympathizers trying to violently carve out a nation). It certainly got the emotions going, especially for my character. I was playing a character who was prejudiced against warforged and 37 had helped her "come around" before he left the party, so when she found out he had gone over to the enemy it felt like a personal betrayal, and it became her life's goal to destroy him.

The player actually came back to play a few games just as the campaign was wrapping, made up a new PC, and got to battle against his old PC.

PC from my last group... we were high level gestalt based in Sigil. In our group, we used LA on one side of the build.

I represented "Team Evil", as the other players put it.
Arinthalas Kelathis - elf evolved ghost (6) fiend of possession (adapted to undead) 6 / master of the unseen hand 5 | wilder 7 / thrallherd 10

Arinthalas was rather laid back in combat, every once in awhile she'd keen (empowered wildsurged sonic-cone or burst, or bolt, or missile) or possess someone or something.

cohort: "Maligant" - vampiric Elven priest (Deathmaster) | master vampire 1 and assorted templates.
Maligant was responsible for a seemingly unlimited number of minions. Progeny (term I use instead of Vampire Spawn... as I never used "spawn", all were true vamps), Undead Minion (class feature), Undead controlled, undead uncontrolled (he kept several "packs of ghouls" in his dungeons), Cohort, Followers, cohorts and followers of Cohorts and Progeny...

An all around pleasent fellow.
