I always find this intriguing to know, because its not like an MMO such as WoW and nobody on your friends list and such ever knows your IG name, but playing through TES i always imagine people actually do know my name, and try BE my character as much as i can. I always stick with my gamertag as my IG name Merihem, which is an entity/demon that causes pestilence, i know a dragonborn PROBABLY wouldnt take after a malevolent demon though [img]http://www.gamesas.com/images/smilie/smile.gif[/img]

What will you name your protagonist and why?
Zant, whose species is a werewolf-vampire hybrid (originally vampire), and his race is a nord. He has lived since the first era. :woot:

My Breton mage's name was Magical Trevor, because I was just messing around in my first playthrough. I wish I named him something better though...

My 2nd and current character is an Orc heavy warrior named Got gro-Bagohl. I like this name, it's both consistent to the Orc namings and his last name is bread.

My nords name is: Hrothmund.

If you don't recognize the name, I almost pity you. The name appears to have some older origins, as it appears in an Old English epic named "Beowulf." The name also harkens back the the "old" days of Morrowind, before the destruction of Vvardenfell, to the snowy island of Solstheim where the Nord hero Hrothmund the Red lived and died.

My four most recent characters:

Khajiit weaponmaster: Belisarius (named after the Byzantine general)
Khajiit light warrior: Ariobarzan (named after the Persian general)
Nord warrior: Anaximander (named after the pre-socratic philosopher)
Bosmer archer: Kiyomizu (named after the Kiyomizu-dera, a Buddhist temple in Japan)

I almost never pay attention to name trends within a particular race and just choose a name I think is fitting. It's kind of like how some emperors took on a name that was different than the one they were given at birth.

Nords, Imperials and Breton almost always get Greek names (Anaximander, Odysseus, Polykleitos.)
Khajiit are commonly named after ancient generals/strategists (Belisarius, Ariobarzan, Sima Yi)
I've only played as a Bosmer once (Kiyomizu), but I think I'll keep with the trend and name the next one after a different Japanese temple.

I don't know why I think these names are fitting, but I do. :cool:
