    What did you name your NPC? I went with "The Other Herdo", hoping someone might see him/her/it and let me know.

    Really, it's going to fall into one of four categories nine times out of ten:

    1: Reference
    2: Bad Pun (possible attempts to slip things under the radar)
    3: Self-insertion
    4: Original Characters from other places (D&D, etc)

    I named mine Terrin Starspirit, which is a mix of 3 and 4.

    You're so right about this. Why else would anyone want to be able to add a name? I think it's awesome that my contribution to Starbound will manifest somewhere in-game.

  7. Until such time as I think of a better thing I just set it to 'Segolia'

    This makes me wonder though, what happens if several people have chosen the same NPC name to go into the pool? I would guess the system allows overlap (i.e no "someone has already added this name, please choose another")

    Yes, "I just vomited a lot." is a better name than what Dr. Chaos suggested.

    If I went higher than pixel I would go with Captain Falcon.
    And he would be the captain of the station.

    I'm probably going to name it "Stan the Guide" when I preorder, which will probably be in a couple weeks. Stan is what me and my friend called out Guide in put Terraria world. This was before NPC's actually had names.
