An axe take on Doomhammer.

Dripik is a glukkon from the Oddworld games, a race of industrial and heartless capitalists. Sounded fitting for a goblin.

I still need to get that “General” title.

The Kul Tiran druid forms are made of wood.

Some of my toons names come from the Transformers of all places. Howlback was the name of an obscure cassette minion of Soundwave. I also took the name Skullgrin from a pretender transformer for my Laughing Skull toon. Perfect fit.

Took it from a song called “Slanias song” by eluveitie thought it sounded pretty cool.

My Kitty Cat who’s name is Draqula, Draq for short.

from Zirondelle from Cajun/Bayou speak for a dragonfly.

Well monks were using Chi, but I already had a monk…
It’s also a pretty good Chinese sounding name, with another meaning of eat well (if direct machine translation), fitting of pandaren.
So yeah.

This one is random, but my main is named after a character in a book series I enjoyed. Meldron!

Durzo Blinte.

Sure he was the farthest from a Paladin but the name Aurion was already taken(at the time by someone else… it’s mine now too) and Blinte sounded cool.

It was a long time ago, but teenage-me liked to create fantasy names so I looked up some elvish/draconic/whatever language to create Daetra. Dae = white, Tra = tree. White Tree.

Obvious answer is obvius I think.

It was the name of the first guy that killed me in wow Wpvp back in the day…my first toon was a warrior and I felt pretty invincible until this Horde rogue named Khemical came along and 2 shot me …scared the crap outta me and ever since I went rogue and have been loving it

Jane Eyre.

Had a Bounty Hunter in SWTOR named Wulm that I really liked. So when i came back in …Cata? named him Wulm.

Where that character’s name came from: It sounded starwarsy enough imo, dunno.

There’s one dude who named his blood elf DH the same in another server. Dunno if it was a suggested name, or he saw mine or if we somehow connected through the ether because it’s literal mishmash of letters. I have the minimum amount of vowels to sound something out.

Well, it was supposed to be something like Sagan because I wanted a space theme but I got told to get bent by the naming system.

Now its Astronomer because it was pretty close

This character is named for the Greek analog of valkyries. Keres are malevolent battlefield spirits of death who glory in slaughter.

My main, a VE Hunter, (Yohaulti) is named for the Aztec “Lady of the Night” (Yohaulticetl) who was a moon goddess.
