| Name making guide! Alrighto, heres a guide for all those people that are having trouble choosing a name for their trickster char!
*EDIT: I have realized that there are many other methods... yet this is one of the most effective, and one of the easiest... sorta...
just try it!*
Twab's guide to making a name!
Ever need that perfect name, gotta be original, gotta be cool,
Gotta be different? Well heres the guide for you!
Do what I say or you will end up with a name like Narutox1235436.
Okies.
First, you take 1 word that you really like, and and some more that you might also like.
Like my name is usally twab, so twab+ others.
Heres an example.
Sonic
Twab*
Zelda
Flame
Aqua
Burn
Sting
Toast
Echo
Weedie
There you are, a good list of words. The words can be actions, things, or maybe other in game names
that you like. Now we mesh the word that you really like, with the other words. Like Twab+Sonic.
Down there you will see teh example.
Twab+Sonic = Twonic or Sonab
Twab+Zelda = Twelda, (Girly), or Zelab
Twab+Flame = Twame, or Flwab
Twab+Aqua = Twaqua, or Aquab, or maybe Aqwab
Twab+Burn = Twurn (wtf?), or Burwab, maybe Tuwarb (wtf?!?!?!)
Twab+Sting = Twing, or maybe Twang, (Not realated), or Stwab maybe Stab!
Twab+Toast = Twoast, or Toab, or Towab T_T
Twab+Echo = Twech, Twecho, Echwab, Ecwab, or Twabo! (LMAO, TWABO)
Twab+Weedie= Tweedie, Tweed, Weedwab, Weewab (no.)
There you go. See how many combinations you have? To make the word, you usally mix ending and startings
Like, Twab+Sonic. Cut the word in half, then put it together. Tw ab + So nic. Twonic,TwSo,abSo,abnic. And thats just one way.
I used mixed ways up there. Just let your mind go.
Next, take 5 of them, and make your favorite 5 names. Heres another example.
Twang
Twame
Twing
Stwab
Zelab
Now look at them, and decide which one!
...
I choose you!
!!!
???
!!!
Twame!
!!!
???
!!!
...
YAY!
You now have yourself a spanking brand new name!
Also, if you cant decide, most games have more than one character, so just make more than one!
Well, thats it, hope you have fun making your new names!
You dont really have to use them, its just for fun. Try it and maybe you'll like your new name!
After you made your name, go ahead and post it here.

| Heh, pretty clever method. I use a unique method of my own, but I hope people look at this and not just use anime or game character names.
Dare I tell you my method? It's pretty limited.
...Ah, what the heck.
My method is simple: Take two letters, and spell out the sound.
For example, I chose the letters 'R' and 'M'.
'R' makes an 'Ar' sound, and 'M' makes an 'em' sound.
Stick 'em together, and this is what you get: Arem! It has that medieval mage feeling to it, no?

| Mine would to add letters to common words. Lets take your words:
Pain = Paine
Rain = Raine
I also add things like er, is, us, ie, ly. Any kind of ending would do well. :) | | (Offline)

| I usually just stick with some theme. When I played WoW, I made mine sound like actual fantasy names but with a -yll or -ynn ending. Guild Wars I named my male characters (insert name) Oyabun and the females (insert name) Taicho. RO had to do with Roses.
I come here and my dragon's name is Rayn and my cat is Puddles.
I like themes. | | (Offline)

| I take my names from music. D: One of my current favorites is one of Verdi's operas. All my character names come from neat places, but I make up a few, as well. <3
Being creative and original helps a lot. x_x; | | (Offline)

| I either use the same name i've used everywhere else or take names from games, mythology, legends, etc, but if i do this, it's rarely a game immediately recognizable. | | (Offline)

| Well the story of twab is a funny, long, and weird story. It was before I found this method, which I make my names of now.
Here is the story...
(Warning) This Story has been altered to be dramaticly cooler, and not sound boring, as this is all for the readers safety. The original story is about me and some chao's from a video game, and one drawing on eachother to make themselves better, and the real story will be told afterwords. Thank you for reading. I have made this story better, because I've always wanted to, and it looks really cool now! Hope you like it! This really isnt much of a warning... Weee!(Warning)
~Issued by the Twab Saftey Squad. (TSS)
The Twab Story
(Mostly true)
A long time ago...
Before Trickster...
Maplestory...
Even GAMECUBE!
Well not that early...
But you get the point...
I like to dot dot dot...
There was a boy...
Who played gamecube...
One game...
Sonic The Hedgehog...
Twab... Was born!
In a game called Sonic The Hedgehog... There were creatures that you can breed. Chao's... so to speak... This boy named 2 chao's. Both Twa. Twa was his original name, that is found under the deepest roots of time. (Or your local dictionary XD)
The Chao's lived peacefully for awhile. Until they got to the stage that would decide their gender. Transforming. When a chao has been cared for enough, it turns into a Hero Chao. Both were undergoing this stage, and after the stage is over, the genders are issued. One Twa was a boy, and one.. was a girl.
This gender seperration had changed their relationship.... Forever. In the Hero Garden, where hero chao's live their lives, These 2 Twa's lived. They didnt do much, Until they learned how to draw. They were peacefully drawing one day, until the female twa marked her body with a A. The male twa was jealous, and therefore marked his body, with a B. The boy saw this. He ignored it, and wanted to plant some trees. But the 2 twa's were insistant on making themselves different from the other. The trees were planted in a straight line going down hero garden. The male side, was on one, the female, the other. They had wars. Anyone who snuck into to the other genders territory was subject to various punishments. Such as being trapped in the females jail, (Guarded by many chao's) , knocked into the ground, and many others. The males were very territorial, and kept to themselves. The females however. (Excluding Twa (Female)) Still wanted to breed, and peeked in. They soon learned against it. The boy decided to end it, and dug up the trees. This led to chaos in the garden. (Yes chaos not chao's.) There was panicing everywhere, and chao's were getting hurt. The boy (me of course) decided to end all this chaos. He renamed the Male chao, twaB. yes, Twab. Twab. Yep. Twab. K. Now finally the female Twa was satisfied, and if anyone wanted to refer to the female twa, they would just say twa. The male one is twab. Since I am a boy, i choose the name twab.
Fin.
The end.
Whatever...
Epilouge.
(True)
After the feud was over, Twab and Twa got a little romantic, and eventually ending up breeding, and birthing a chao I named Twame.. But thats another story...
(Another warning) After reading you may have enduced shock, tears, pain, and severe discomfort. TSS is not responsible for any of this. Instead, blame George Bush. Also, any spelling errors you may have encountered are strictly awsome. They are supposed to be there. That is all. (Another warning)
Well tnx for reading, that took about 15 minutes to write it all... Yea... thanks n all. =)
And that is your VERY long response!
Hope your happy... *looks at sore hands*

| Twab, I found that story very personally touching (Why? Because I played Sonic Adventure 2 also x_o")
To add to the whole name-making guide, I suggest not overdoing it. Make it short, sweet and to the point.
Personally, I like to make names that go with the character itself.
Example: Cat Character = NekoNeko [Neko means "caT" in Japaneese]
Racoon Character = Rac-San ['Rac' comes from 'racoon' while 'san' is a japaneese suffix]
Also, if the character is going to do a certain task (Like healing or tanking), make a name that goes somethign with that.
Example: Healer ~ HealingRain / Calcium / SpiceOfLife
Tanks ~ Invincible / NoInsurance [If you get it ...] / iWillSurvive | | (Offline)

| I kinda like SpiceOfLife.
Twab. You're hawt. That's how awesome your story was. So don't make me fall on the ground screaming various and sundry details about my cool, pwnsocks dreams. (I can fall on the ground and scream in stereo, too. Don't make me scream in stereo. Your butt will bleed.)
NoInsurance is hawt, too. | | (Offline)
