Last night, as I was thinking of all the names of the characters I wanted to make, I came up with the name Rhazor, the Blade. Has anyone else used names like this for one of their characters before?

I dont know where you got the first one from, is your Eldoth Kron the same as the one in bg1? Is Ghatzkull Thraka a huge half-orc by any chance?(coughwarhammer40,000cough)

You know, I had that very same association
Did you also create a character named Yerrec or something?
(BTW, noone's blaming you. I stole my name from Mr. Tolkien, and I didn't even alter it )

I personally used names from Raymond E Feist novels. I have a sorcerer named Macros, a fighter named Tomas and a thief named Jimmy. I also have a dwarf cleric named Thorin Doomhammer and a half-orc barbarian named Ragnar.

I normally name my charecters after final fantasy7 charecters, most frequently Cloud or if female Tifa since aeris and aerie could get confusing.

I usually give my chars a wierd name like the ones you would find in the game like Psa'lil, Itlaxhcl, and Thelexia.
Or if i was to name from games, I would (feel guilty for sayin this)
Use parody of names like Baldurdash did with Elmonster/Elminster
I might take some name from history (like egyptian gods) like Anubis,
Ra, Osiris, Isis, Gaia, Kronos, Amun-Ra, or like Ramses (a dead pharaoh)
or, take a name from the old game and put it to the new one!
Take Jon Irenicus, for example. Give him his portraits, his avatar, and his voice (possibly) and you have a recreation of the character! Sure, you would try to match up his stats and his spells, (if using new shadow keeper, look him up in the creature searching thingy) Look for HELLSLAY (him in hell) copy his stats (open the other jonny before hellslay to get the skinny on his actual stats) and copy the hell's spells. Jonny cant glow (though u could chance on Rapture of the Father) Rapture is not the same rapture. It is that thing he does when he kills those others in his tanks in Asylum.
