I've pinched names from Tolkein, Feist, Eddington, the forgotten realms novels and the Arthurian legends.

Favorite names:

Gareth Ap Orkney - paladin
Siobahn and Gwenyth - female Cleric and druid
Mai Ling Su - a 40th level monk from TOB who was also known in our MPlayer group as the PMS Queen - its a long story but resulted when one of the major NPCs in the game made a comment that she took umbrage at, and she went off on him solo while the rest of the group stood around slack jawed. You had to be there ..... lol

but my all time favorite (at least with CRPGs)is Tel'Quessar ... an elven fighter/mage/thief who insisted on maintaining his privacy and will say nothing of his homeland or background. Taken directly from Tolkein, his name means simply "One of the people".
