it just kind of clicked me for that whenever it asks me for a name I just put Scare. I think back in the day if I would just leave it blank or deafult but everything is Scare now. What do you guys put?

Depends what it's for (any website that's going to get my credit card info I may as well be honest) but if it's just some BS website that needs a real name for some reason it's usually random. I've used Rob Oid in the past.

Neither.
In Zelda, always Link, because it's canon and feels wrong to call him anything else. (same goes for FFVII, FFX, and Persona [with Minato and Yu. P5 was Akira in my first playthrough and a half, but future ones if I do them will be the canon name Ren Amamiya]) In Skyrim, I create a character, usually female (for eye candy purposes, lol), to fulfill the playstyle I am going for. In Stardew Valley, I'm not playing as myself. ...it's weird. I never play as myself in any game. Perhaps it's because I want to create someone else's story and not extend my own. And what's really weird is that I get more invested in crafting a story if the character is female despite being a guy. --- BlueCrystalTear | GNT BB4 Winner, Winner Chicken Dinner 3DS 4356-4163-4781 X/M: Natalie AS: Allie | You're living your own life.

Depends on the game. In games with a canon name for the character like Final Fantasy, I'll just leave the canon name in there (so I suppose the answer would be neither my real name or my screen name). In games where there's no official name, I either try to find one that's appropriate, or I'll rarely use my own if I really can't think of anything and it seems like it'd fit decently.

MrGreenonion 12/29/17 9:16:33 PM #21: |
I used to use my name in Pokemon but it started to get confusing trying to remember which game a given Pokemon came from, so I started using different names. Since then I've been CM Punk, The Miz, Obama, Spider-Man, Little Mac, Space Jam, and The Flash.
In other games I usually either make up a name or, more often, can't think of a name I like and turn the game off forever. --- SuperNiceDog didn't have to reconcile his name... But Dauntless Hunter is now MrGreenonion ... Copied to Clipboard!

Omniscientless 12/29/17 9:29:11 PM #22: |
I don't like my name so I don't think I have ever used it or even thought about using it. I always name the women protagonists Gauny and the males something related to sharks or dogs or both (i.e. my Skyrim guy is called Left Shark Dancer, Persona 5 dude is Sharko Doggo).

If it's one name I'll use my real one, or my online one as a nickname. But if it's gotta be a first and last name, it's Donovan Doinkler all the way.

Lopen 12/30/17 1:08:41 AM #27: |
Changes a lot. It's usually Lopen or X-Death if the character has no real defined appearance (Monster Rancher 2, Fire Emblem 7) but I'll usually make a unique name up for each character otherwise, based on what comes to me from how they look or how I made them look. Or I'll often use the default name.
