For my Dwarven Noble: Durin, the name of the first and greatest king of the Dwarves in Lord of the Rings.



For my Human Noble: Solomon. Just wanted a name that sounded grand and powerful



The others I just went with the defaults.

[Leukofryene]

F dalish elf: Marlene, F city elf: Edith ;need no explanations , I assume

F mage: Medea, just like the witch from the greek mythology

M arcane warrior mage: Calidius. Quite popular roman name, but this particular one was inspired by the gravestone inscription of the roman centurion. Simply the best for the powerful warrior.

Why would you assume that? I haven't the slightest clue where these names might come from.

[Leukofryene]

These names were inspired by Marlene Dietrich and Edith Piaf, I thought they are well known but ok, I may be wrong.

[Aulis Vaara]

They are well known. However, that those name come from those two particular people is in no way obvious.

[mc_pete_pants]

ummm - I called mine MC Pete Pants after the Aqua Teen Hunger Force character MC Pee Pants ( ) because of my name and because I love ATHF :-p

[Unrefined-Nemesis]

I named my first ever character Cailan and made him look like Cailan the king by mistake. Every other character was using my real name after that.

[Gammalfarmor]

My human noble is named George which is my middle name. My other 3 char are elves and are named after the greek gods, as far I have Zeus Apollo and Artemis.

Loktar is my Dwarven Noble 2H Warrior. The word Lok'tar means "victory" in the Orc language of Warcraft. It seemed fitting for a Berserker.

Kaida is my Human Noble archer Rogue. Kaida is a Japanese name for "little dragon". I thought it sounded nice.

Madelyn is my Elf Mage from Orlais. She's named after a good friend of mine.



I also have a Human Mage called Ligeia, though I've yet to play either campaign with her. She's named after a mage character that I played on a MUD when I was in middle school. The name originates from an E.A. Poe story.

[Saerwen]

City Elf Female: Aranel~it is a Tolkien name, that means Princess, is also the Tolkien version of Sarah. She is strong willed and pragmatic, I think she understands the warden credo "Anything to stop the blight." I am also working on a Fan-Fic with this character, so this one is special to me.



Human Male Noble: Brandon~ The name has family signifigance, and I also felt it was a strong and noble name. He is a total good guy with the exception of his facination with the swamp witch.



Female Mage: Katirel, I liked the name, then read Gaider's books can't remember if I created her before or after reading them however. She is an arcane warrior and blood mage.



Female Mage: Solona~ not original, but I liked the name. Arcane Warrior/Spirit Healer/Battle Mage. The only character I have finished Awakenings with. I really like this one, she is formidable.



I can't really remember all the rest of my play throughs, and I have many more characters, but these were the few that were a little more meaningful to me. I have to say my favorite orgins are the City Elf and Mage.

Female City Elf - Lyla. Quiet, demure, and to the point. I needed it for someone you could picture being extremely mature and logical, yet someone who is also compulsively motherly towards others.
Fell for Alistair and learned to trust humans.

Male Human Mage - Lok. I wanted something short, snappy, and masculine. Something that would suit an attractive and scheming playboy.
Morrigan tamed his wild ways and wrapped him around her little finger.

Female Dwarven Commoner - Nalia. Sweet and girlish. The name reminds me of caramel for some reason.
Found Zevran to be too enticing to resist.

Male Dwarven Noble - Grent. Masculine, hard-headed, and somewhat bullish. I wanted it to sound sturdy, like a stone.
An honorable woman like Leliana for an honorable dwarf like Grent.

Female Dalish Elf - Akre. It needed to be suitable to a strong female who has no need for "girly" indulgences when there is hard labor to be done. Powerful and full of rage. Racist against anyone who didn't have pointed ears.
Romanced no one. I never finished her because she was too bitter for my little heart to role play. I like to imagine she was involved in one argument too many before abandoning the party for good, leaving them to suffer the fate of the Darkspawn Chronicles.

I never kept up with the human noble origin because it felt too cliche for my tastes.

Etirilith because I used to play MMOs and people would need to type out your name if they wanted to send you a PM. I didn't like to make it easy. =P

[Forst1999]

My Dwarf commoner was named Balin, my female City Elf Finduilas. Obviously, i like my Tolkien. My female human noble is named Amelia, i just like the name. Now i would name her Beatrix (she is blonde, wields a two-handed sword and wants revenge -> She is directly out of Kill Bill). My Mage is named Vince, this name makes me think of Rincewind. Sadly we can't change the family name. Vince Rind would have been cool.

[Last Darkness]

Invidia was the name of my female dwarvern noble, shes my only character ive actualy beat Origens and Awakening with. I named her Invidia because its Latin for Envy which is my favorite sin.

its simple enough, what did you name your PC(s) and why, everyone has a motivation for calling them what ever they did for some reason and i just thought it would be intreasting to see the names and reasons behind it all.

now i'll go irst, i called my Human male warrior Achilles because for those of you that know even the slightest bit about greek mytholgy your'll know that Achilles is meant to be the greatest warrior that ever lived and i found it fitting that if my guy is gonna save Thedas than this is in appropiate name, i also love the fillm troy and brad pitts performance in it not to mention i find greek mytholgy highly intreasting. So now its your turn, fire away.

haha, i recently made a Human Noble and called him Achilles to

But back to the topic some of my other characters i just had the default name, but the others i named them after old norse gods and greek gods. like Zeus and Thor and etc.. My first character tough i named him after myself;
Haakon.

[Son of Imoen]

Female City Elf Rogue called Ehlora - I seem to have a fancy for three-syllable names for females with the stress on the second syllable. Three of my favourite Baldur's Gate female PC's have names with the same rhythm: Ihrene, Ohrlinka, Kassandra. It must have something to do with girls I've fallen in love with when I was young, that had similar-sounding names.

Human Noble

Name: Basil the Qunari Slayer

[burrito]

Sorry typed to fast

Male Human Noble

Name: Basil the Qunari

Big fan of Byzantine Empire

[standardpack]

Male human noble: Calentz Cousland

Male Elven mage: Xaldin Surana

Male Dalish Elf: Vega Mahariel

Big fan of kingdom hearts and always wanted my mage character to learn wind spells AND lightning, sadly he can only learn the later.

Calentz is a name I picked up from a game called 'Tears of blood' I used it on a red headed character for another one of my games and ever since then I associated any character I create with red hair as 'Calentz'

As for Vega I don't really remember, I heard it from somewhere and liked the way it sounded. It can be both a female and male name and means 'Dweller in the meadow, one who lives on a plain.'

[NadrojoftheDwarves]

  I chose to name my Dwarf Commoner, Warrior Nadroj due to the fact that it is my name backwords. ( My name is Jordan.)

[Wonderllama4]

Elizabeth seems like a beautiful name for a beautiful city elf. I also named a mage warden after myself.
