Alt Names OK?

Postby Ruin » Sun Nov 21, 2010 7:16 pm

So I'm planning to make some alts, and wanted to run names past you folks to make sure they're RP-acceptatble.nnA debauched Blood Elf warrior, a bloodthistle addict with zero talent for magic and a chip on the shoulder as a result: FleurdeguerrennA Tauren paladin zealot, whose motto is kill them all and let the Light sort them out: Molech.nnLast in a long line of goblin shaman engineers, named for the merchant house: Boltthrower.nnAny objections?

I don't have any problems with those, I think they are pretty creative.nnThe ED community at large might have an issue with your BElf warrior's name, since it is pretty obviously French. But then, so was mine pretty obviously Chinese, so in that respect, I say do what makes you happy. So long as your not naming them "Sirkilzalot" or "DragnEmprer" or "Plowmybutt" I think you'll be ok.

I kinda brought this up in the other post but no one responded. Would anyone have an issue with me naming my goblin shaman "Djengo" after Django Reinhardt?

All names unless they have sexual term or out right nasty / derogative term built in the name is fine for rp

Djengo sounds very trollish, don't see anyone having a problem with it unless they're being stupid.

I think that keeping all Nyx character names at least somewhat RPish is very good, but we need to be careful not to catch ourselves bending over backwards at the whims of the realm forum trolls. Some people are jealous of what we have here, and will criticize this guild for any reason, imagined or real.
