Who came up with it and why? What does the name mean for the character? We know Shepard was named Shepard because he is more or less suppossed to be a reference to Jesus (watches over humanity and the rest of the galaxy as a spectre in attempt to keep it out of harms way, saves everyone in the galaxy (jews and gentiles), not just humans (jews) therefore causing some humans (jews) to have a problem with him, rises from the dead, the reapers practically consider him a god, etc). But what about Hawke? Surely the writers didn't just choose a random name because they thought it sounded good and added into the appeal of silly taglines like "Think like a general" and "Fight like a spartan."

Perhaps Hawke is a reference to the animal. Hawkes are adapt hunters and have the highest IQ amongst birds. So perhaps Hawke is extremely intelligent and is hunting something throughout the game. Maybe he has good eyesight too. Ideas?

Shepard was named after the late Alan Shepard, the second person in space and the fifth to walk on the moon.

Sometimes a protagonist is merely a protagonist. :)
