 So I've seen it mentioned a few times in the thread a few months back but never found the source, but Cullen apparently has a surname?
I mean, I'm sure most people do have one in the game, we just don't hear it, but he actually has a set in stone last name?
I wonder if he's a Howe.  a de launcet would be so many funnies

[CuriousArtemis]

DG tweeted (rather jokingly) that Cullen had a last name, something like "Huh. So THAT'S Cullen's last name." But that's it.

Oh what's so hilarious is that woman in Whiterun who says to my guy, "You look like the marrying type. I hope you treat your wife well." And I just picture Vilkas all barefoot and pregnant and laugh maniacally.

My Leeroy is a khajiit and Derkeethus is an argonian - not to mention both are dudes..

This demands art to capture the beauty of interspecies mpreg.

EDIT

Huh. Oh well, was just curious where that came from. Thank you.

Commoners (human Fereldans at least) aren't suppose to have last names. If Cullen has a last name, that would probably mean he's from a noble family. But Bioware is totally inconsistent with this kind of thing though.

That's what I thought too. Maybe he's from a noble family or something? I guess we'll find out when we play the game!

Danny - that made me LOL!
Dr. Moto - What bugs the snot out of me about Vilkas and Farkas is the fact that they're brothers, raised together.... yet have completely different accents! 

Back on topic - Dear sweet baby Jeebus, please don't let Cullen be a Howe UNLESS they're somehow bringing back Tim Curry as a VA.... because I love him.

I hope he isn't a Therin, I'd like him to be from a family we haven't heard about yet if his Surname is of some importance.

[Jean]

I'm.. Surprised I actually did not know that. I just figured sometimes it was relevant and other times it was not.
Him being from some sort of noble family with daddy issues wouldn't surprise me in the least bit.

[CuriousArtemis]

I hope he's noble, too ^^ And that somehow he has family issues ... sister/brother is a mage, or parents are disgraced, or SOMETHING. I just feel like there's so much potential background to explore with him and his as-yet-unmentioned past.

Meanie ... I KNOW!! It was silly. But voices in Skyrim... shudder. Brynjolf has a great VA. Um... help me think of some others. Ulfric. That's it?? The voice acting in Skyrim is silly. (But as to Brynjolf, why is a Scot in Skyrim? Geez.)

BW, bless you for hiring gifted VAs that MAKE SENSE!

[LolaLei]

Maybe that's why they're giving him a Surname because potentially it's part of a storyline that the Cullen fans haven't come up with yet lol.

Well it hardly comes up. David Gaider has said on the boards that only nobles have last names. I think the only time it comes up in the games is for the codex entry for the Arms of Mac Tir, which says Loghain being born as a commoner meant he didn't have a last name. It was King Maric that gave him one.

[LolaLei]

What if that massive castle we acquire actually belongs to him/his family?

I see. I should probably pick up the books sooner or later too.

I wonder if Malcolm Hawke was a noble, then? Or a name someone else gave to him and it kinda stuck? He was a mercenary..

Cullen will be a DuPuis.

Good question. Hm, maybe his family were nobles from somewhere in Thedas? Or DG changed his mind on the name thing lol.

Good point!! The Amell connection is cute, but they really should have made Hawke the noble name (i.e. Leandra Hawke, Gamlen Hawke), so Malcolm and Leandra's children took the noble name (because Malcolm would have had no name). Unless Leandra wanted to forget her family name, and so they invented a name for their new family?

That would be cool if the castle were Cullen's! But means that Cullen haters would lose their castle if they killed/refused to recruit him mwahaha!

Depends under the circumstances in which they kill him I guess. Cullen might give the protagonist the castle because we helped win it back from the enemy. If his family died when the bad guys took the place over then I guess he'd probably not want to keep it after that lol.

Lol I just imagined big ol' warrior man in an apron when Moto came home

*Long day of adventurin' and dragon slaying*

Vilkas: Welcome home my love!

Moto: *grunts*

Vilkas: How was your day?

Moto: *grunts* Meh

Vilkas: Notice anything?

Moto: ...You're getting a little fat...

Vilkas: *gasps* I did my hair!!! You heartless shrew!

Moto: *backhands him* Make my dinner cow!

Vilkas: *Sobs as he cuts carrotts* *whispers* My mother was right about you...

Moto: What?!?

Vilkas: N-nothing dear!!

....

I kind of want Cullen to be a distant relative to a Cousland So he's extra awesome

That's a good point. Maybe folks get last names but they aren't of much importance without a title? Or maybe the Hawke's are an important family and Malcolm got kind of cut away when his magic was discovered? Interesting!

Meredith has a last name too, but we never find out much about it. And all dwarves and elves seem to have them.

It seems like I remember reading that "Mac Tir" means "of the land." Does anyone else remember seeing that, or am I losing a few screws? R2? Lola?

It's Gaelic I believe. I saw that on the wiki. So no, no losing screws yet

I thought I saw DG say it just a few months ago that only nobles have last names on the DA3 forums, but I can't find it right now. The Arms of Mac Tir is from the DA2 item pack 2, so that's pretty recent.

Whew! Thanks, Danny.  

So, question: which of these options would feel like a bigger betrayal:

If Cullen...

A.) Decided he hated all mages and began a campaign of violence against them
B.) Sided with the Lambert Crowd out of fear and/or submission
C.) Moved to Tevinter and took a cozy job as a Templar there
D.) Abandoned all of his principles and wasted away in a tavern somewhere
E.) Converted to the Qun
F.)  Found himself in a delightful fantasy in the Fade and chose to stay forever
G.) Turned out to be Orlesian

Inquiring minds want to know!!

Oooo good one!

If we're talking about what I feel would be the biggest betrayal of his personality then I think A, B and D would probably seem like the great injustice to his personality and character development so far, simply because from what we've seen from Cullen so far, he's not the type of man to give up and/or accept his lot if it's something he feels is morally wrong.
