I was browsing the wiki and saw the list of 'standard' names for the characters ( dragonage.wikia.com/wiki/The_Warden#First_Name ) . Who kept one of these names during his or her play actually? I tried one once, but I quickly stopped playing that character. I found thinking up a name made the character seem more alive to me.
So, because I'm curious - let's fill in your (main) characters according to origin:
Male
Human Noble: Morgon
Human Mage: Roman
Elf Mage: *haven't played yet*
City Elf: Gilthalion
Dalish Elf: Thalion
Dwarf Noble: Dwarrin
Dwarf Commoner: Damar
Female
Human Noble: Laurel
Human Mage: *haven't played yet*
Elf Mage: *haven't played yet*
City Elf: Aditu
Dalish Elf: River
Dwarf Noble: *haven't played yet*
Dwarf Commoner: *haven't played yet*

Human Noble: Ravanda
Elven Mage: Alinys
City Elf: Lessa
The first two came from a fantasy name generator. Lessa, on the other hand, was the name of the default elven thief that you can play as in Baldur's Gate.

My human noble male was called Tiernan, which was quite funny since I had no idea that the original name was Irish too.
My Orlesian Warden is called Geraud and resembles Geralt of Rivia from the Witcher.

For some reason I've used standard names for all women so far while the guys have names that are a bit different.
Male elf mage: Vadim - since Alim seemed to short and it was on a list of "magic related" names.
Male human noble rogue: Devrim – Means revolution in Turkish, my idea was sort of a Robin Hood character that wants to change society.
Male dalish rogue: Therion - I couln't resist just adding a letter to that, I love the band.

cultkiller: that's a spicy avatar pic.
currently:
Yvaine, F! elf mage
Elensia, F! city elf warrior
Rhaelyn, F! dalish rogue
Elissa, F! human noble warrior
Either I go with a somewhat random assortment of letters, or I sorta research names from mythology or what have you.

I usually try to find names that blend in with the different races.
Human noble: Gaelic names
F: Niamh, Maeve, Aislin - I had one exception: Nyasha
M: Ciaran, Eoghan
Human mage: depends on whether they're the typical Fereldan (='Gaelic') or members of a tribe (e.g. Chasind)
F: Daena, Bahni
M: Darcy, Liam, Ecurio
Dalish elf: Tolkienesque names
F: Avariel, Rhaina, Dúril
M: Valandil, Enerdhil
City elf: whatever comes to mind and doesn't sound too harsh
F: Lleira, Calla
M: (haven't played yet)
Dwarf noble + commoner: same style for both origins (just can't figure out WHICH style)
F: Theska (Aeducan), Eris (Brosca)
M: (haven't played yet)
And no, I haven't played through the game with all the above. I must admit that someof them didn't even make it past Lothering...^^

What ever RPG I play, I always pick from a set of names that I always use:
Maximus (Gladiator)
Octavian
Rashana (will combine with Xanus to make one name ie. Rashana' Xanus used in ES4)
Xanus
Xavius
But I guess to be specific for this game thus far:
Human Rogue male: Xavius
Human Warrior Female: Xanus
....and yes each one has a story of why I use them and which one's I use for evil and for good.
