Am wondering if your char's name has a reference or meaning or even a story behind it, if you do please share it:D

I know of some of them but they are just rumors until proven by the right source of information.

I mean c’mon as Clare you know from the name it’s going to be very very nice class and even nicer spec to run around with holy main spec and disc off spec I mean most mobs are just giving away the loot items and go off looking for a real fight where they can die honorably:angry:

Switchback

From a young age I was known as switch. Not for good reasons really....

I was, how to put it...abit mental. 1 min happy, next sad, happy then angry. You get the point. Don't know what triggered it really, it happened.

It was like flicking a switch on and off to different emotions, hence Switch.

Later on in life, at college I enjoyed my time as a young single lad with 1 thing on my mind. Then I met the mother of my children.

The 1st year we were together I kept splitting up with her as I didn't want to be "tied" down. I always went crawling BACK to her though lol.

So my pals put them together....

"Oh he's switchedback again"

Switchback was born :p

haha nice and very true :norty:

ayla

My first character in wow was called pixie, which is a RL nickname - not sure why really, as I am so un-pixie like :) but I think it came from my younger years when I was a little imp'ish to say the least :D.  My second character was ayla, who was a healer as is my shaman and her namesake comes from a book series by Jean M Auel - Earths Children books (Clan of the Cave Bear).  My latest addition to my characters is Zolena, who was Ayla's spiritual mentor :)  I have a whole bunch of other characters whose names are taken from Greek Goddesses, and one whose called patchouli - mainly because patchouli is my favourite herb and scent.

Swedeguy

I have a few characters. Swedeguy is actually my fourth created and the name came from total brainblock when coming to the "Name" part. So for lack of better things: Swedeguy since I am swedish. Then he became my main toon ever since. Go figure.
Pastorn, my priest is a little closer to home, my fifth toon created but it is, (was rather), my nickname during youth. Translated it's Reverend. Comes from one of my classmates that thought I had the highest grade in religion history, (wich I didnt). But everybody liked the name, (apart from me), so it stuck.  :ranting2:

Guru

Well, when I started playing my warrior back in the old days my name was Hyunkil which refers to a superhero in animation I was addicted to watch.

Hyunkil is just a human who has some sort of special blade and once he raises the blade, the blade will transform into a fancy armor plate like in this picture:



At that time, I was playing in Arathor server then I moved to Aszune and sadly I couldn't find the name :(

So I started to to look around for a new name that describes my warrior skills and BAAM! I found Guru!

Since then my nickname has been changed to Guru.

TeaLeaf

I guess I'm lucky not to have a toon called 'DietCoke'........:roflmao:

When I created my first toon the name 'Tealeaf' was already taken, so I did a play on my original Counterstrike name [TEA]Leaf and took the TEA and added to it the fact that my first toon was female and ended up with:  Tea-elle
The rest of the Teae* toons followed the same theme.
Tlbank - well you can figure that one out for yourself.

I have some Bablylon 5 sourced names for characters too:  Vaylen, Zhadum etc

A white appliance name: Maytag (the make/manufacturer of my fridge) for my shaman

Several translated descriptor names:  
-Asesinato (spanish for murder- Rogue)
-Malmuerte (spanish for bad death - DK)
-Eloso (Spanish for the Bear - Feral Tank Druid)
-Orst (Norwegian for initial as it was my first ever warrior)

-and for my mistweaver monk: Karuna (from the Bhudhist concept of the fundamental compassion for all life)

....and that's as many as I can remember.

Smiz

haha yes could certainly be exciting if we all just named our char for what else was on the table the day we started a new one, my druid named Senon, the meaning of the name Senon is in Spanish, the name Senon means Lively. my priest called real Sc which is just initials for my rl name very simple and SMIZ came because I have a shamnan called Smizz, but amazing how much some people have thought about their char name, my boys named one of my char when they lived home Gniske which in Danish means the grumpy old man, the char is now on standby:)

Switchback

Adlitam....

My daughters name backwards....

Switchbeau.... My hunter. Beau was the ex's name. Went well with a hunter I thought.

Moonslash the drood. No idea just a random name.

Switchnsour the panda.... I think you should be able to work that out :p
