Where did your name come from?
I just came up with the name Rinaah.. no real lineage as to a history or whatnot. I have written creatively ever since I wrote in highschool and names are always very hard. I always try to find a name that sounds good and is memorable. Even in my EQ days or any mmorpgs, I would delete a character just because I didn't like the name I made up.
You will never see me with a name like Ilikechicken or something like that..
Lumina and Regalia are probably the names I use most in places... but not on MP.

Well Siv, I don't know what your name is exactly but I'll bet it's from Narnia. When you said it was from a fantasy author who was a friend of Tolkien I did a quick check online and found it was CS Lewis (which is something I didn't know. Do greats flock together or something?). Well Lewis = Narnia. The only female characters I can remember from that series of books I read (some time ago) were the White Witch, the Penisive girls, and the noble girl who escaped that southland kingdom with the boy who was actually a prince, and his talking horse friend, Bree. Why I can only remember the horse's name, I can give no answer to.
How close am I?

You're pretty close. The "noble girl" is named Aravis. Take the reverse of that and you get my name. {Config}ulations!the noble girl who escaped that southland kingdom with the boy who was actually a prince, and his talking horse friend, Bree.

The name Mozyr comes from the name of a small town in Byelorus located pretty close to Chernobyl. Most of my RP characters have names connected to Russian.
I have a Galka mule character on Siren named Tovarishch, which is Russian for "comrade."
So that's where my names came from.

Dukuji (pronounced: doo-koo-jee) is actually a surname. It is the name of one of the major houses (or clans) of a cat-like race called the Rasken that I developed over 15 years ago. It was the fact that this game had a cat like race that sold me. And, before I bought FFXI, I knew what the name of my character would be. The name does have a meaning and that is, Water Willing. Water being a reference to a deity associated with the liquid form of water.

Vilya is the name of one of the rings in LOTR.
There are 19 other rings in LOTR, 3 of them made for Elves, Vilya is the mightiest of the 3, Elrond's ring, the ring of Air, known for its huge Sapphire.
I was going to call myself Larelm, which i made up by combining some elvish a while back, but i don't know why i changed my mind.

I am only one, but i am one. I cannot do everything, but i can do something. And i will not let what i cannot do interfere with what i can do.
This is gonna sound really kinda just...unoriginal, but honestly, it came from just making the japanese suffix, -chan, into a double name...at the time, I thought it was a suffix meaning "Girl", but apparently it means "beloved"...eh, either way. I figured it'd be kinda cute.

They're also frozen pizza makers.
I got BowlyMania from a varation of BowlaMania - a league I bowled in over the summer. I had been selected as a SysOp for the MSN Gaming zone, back in its good days, and I was at a total loss for a unique name, so I chose that. It evolved a few times, with variations on the spelling, etc.. but now it's pretty much BowlyMania.
My character - JustAnotherFace is kinda just.. well... yeah. I wanted something simple, and to the point ^_^ plus it's a variation on my gf's sn ^^;

Hello all, I'm new to this board.
I'm a Samurai kitty from the Ragnarok server, and my name is 'Lenina'.
I used to be a hume, but after a time I found out humes were boring. So I wanted a Mithra, and I was looking in my FFXI BradyGames Guidebook that came with my game, and then I saw a screenshot of a Mithra named 'Lenina'.
So that's were my name came from.

I've seen a Lenina on the Siren server. Every time I see her (she's also a mithra), I can't help but think of Vladimir Ilyich Ulyanov (aka Lenin). Heh.

Well, even before the pc release of the game I wanted to be a mithra. They just looked so cute and fuzzy Anyways, I had alot of time to think about a name before the game was offically released, and this was a good thing since names are my weak point. I actually just made it up one day. I don't even know how I put together that particular name.
I orriganally wanted to spell my name as Ruka, without the e since i thought it looked better but when I made my character that name was already taken. So I just changed it to Rueka and the name has stuck. Now i look at the spelling for Ruka and think, "that just looks ugly next to Rueka."

About my name...
My name is originally that of my Anarchy Online character (Solitus, Female, Adventurer). It took me forever to come up with, because when it comes to naming fictitious characters I have to have something that is as original as possible or I won't be happy with it (to me, the name is the most important aspect of my characters). But, I couldn't think of anything good, so I just started mashing the name randomizer and that didn't help either.
And then it just came to me out of the blue and in such a way that it was an epiphany-like experience . Delionette... I fell in love with it instantly and it has been my default female character name ever since.
When I started playing FFO, it was pretty much a no-brainer that I would use Delionette (aside from the fact that it is my default female name). It fit so perfectly with being a Mithra and all, having the word 'lion' in it and 'ette' which totally gives it a feminine feel in my opinion.
Characters I have named Delionette: AO (gave it up), DAoC (gave it up after less than an hour of playing), FFO (obviously), and I also changed Nel Zelpher's name (of Star Ocean: Till the End of Time) to Delionette .
Sweet Lips and Bangled Emperors take their toll.
