What are you going to name your first character?

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 7:11 pm

What will you name your first character? I normally give my character dumb names such as Your Mom and dumb stuff like that. Also some bonus questions: What type of weapons will you use in your first play-through?, What type of character will you be? (Sniper, stealthy, scavenger, etc.), Will you be good or bad? (reputation-wise) and will you turn on hardcoe mode?

Update: Poll included :coolvaultboy:

My first guy will probably be named after myself, so Alexander. I usually name all characters in single player games like this after myself. I will play probably on normal, and be a sniper/stealthy person with small arms and pistols, as that is my favorite roll to play. Depending on how it effects you, I will probably be evil, as I usually end up getting made and pwning people from the dark anyway.

My first character would be called either Dante or Jonathan. I would play a stealthy sniper, try neutral, and yes to the last one.

I really dont know what is going to be the name of my char. (Name generators anyone?)
But, I will stick with pistols, I will be a slaver, I will be a bit bad, or maybe neutral, and I will play on hardcoe on the first playthrough.

Still not sure which gender I'll play the game with first.

Male: Miltiades (you didn't see that one coming eh?) ;)
Female: Shalene or Sharysse

Well in response to my question I'll most likely be some bad guy who kills people and carries around every weapon in the game in his pockets while playing hardcoe mode. The way I play will be a mix of things, sometimes I go stealthy and sometimes I just walk right into the battle.

So the first guy i make is always my good guy by the name of Northrop Frye. Older guy, sniper, good, and definitely hardcoe
Next guy would be the bad guy, Hans Oleander, Young, Charismatic, evil, and again hardcoe
later maybe Josey Wales (stole the name from a user here) or Mordecai as a gun slinger, neutral, hardcoe
and Duke as a heavy gunner, good, standard

I'm going to name him after myself. I do this with all my first characters.
Most likely will be using small guns,repair,lock-picking, oh yeah and medicine to you know stay alive.
HC mode actually doesn't interest me at all so I won't be turning that on.

Name: Porter (Mel Gibson's name in "Payback")

I'll be a silver tongued pistoleer, that also uses the occasional lead pipe.

No hardcoe mode on first playthrough.

Not sure on the Gender, probably play as a guy the first time through, since I am one. Then I will play as a woman to see the game differences.

Names

Dude Scott

Dudette Bethra

I generally play a Small Guns, Sweet Talking Smart guy, since that is what I am in the real world.

About the same for me except for being named Malcom, I mainly just name myself random stuff.

I would name him Sam (my IRL name).
I would probably use Small guns, lockpick, and repair as my tags (cause those are most handy for me). I tend to be an all around fighter (cause FO3's system makes specialization pointless, which I hate), but like sniping and doing execution style kills (headshots, decaps, etc). I'll probably be neutral, but maybe the game's rep system will say otherwise. I won't turn on HC mode on my first playthrough, but probably will on other saves.

Something which fits his perceived personality, and the kind of Skills I'm going to focus on, and goes well with his last name, if any.

I actually been contemplating this for a while now and I deffinately gonna choose the name from an old blues man (i.e, muddy watters, howlin wolf, b.b. king, ect). And I'll most likely go for a mid to close range fighter build with emphasis on small arms and melee with a minor in unarmed. Ill most likey have to go for light armored stealthly approach and play it on hard

Same name I give all my characters:

Harley.

I'll be good, or neutral, I guess.

And maybe a Sniper or Gunslinger character, like I usually do, using mostly (any non-automatic) rifles and handguns depending on the types of weapons we see.

And plan on playing hardcoe mode, as he will remain my main character.

Probably something along the lines of stinky or stoopid. I usually don't come up with intelligent names

First Male Character: My own name.

First Female Character: My girlfriends name. (Because she'll end up wanting to play around with it too.)
