    Not too sure if this has been done before, but I want to know what some of you guys named you NPC's.
    I named mine after my IRL name, was just wondering what you named yours and the reason why.
    I take interest outta this stuff.

    E.g: Jack Smith, it's my IRL name

    Jack Smith is your real name? That's...really really generic! Most people would think you were joking and that it was was fake :DD
    That's neat. I would name my NPC something along the lines of "Bairy" because I would just have to, or I would also go with my real name or a variation.
    Can't actually name an npc as I don't have the money for that, but I figured I'd add to the thread nonetheless!

    I still haven't completely decided on what to name my NPC. With not being able to pick the gender/race that it will go for, I'm not sure what would be a good universal name to go with. I half considered going with Patchouli, but I'm not sure how I feel about possibly running into myself :cautious:

    Currently have it set to "Tahria" which is an original character of mine, but it might be weird being other races (or a male), so I've been trying to think of what else to possibly use.

    I don't really care if I turn out to be a female piece of turd, as long as my name is in there :p

    I'm gonna add my own name too
    Will be fun to be roaming about and then suddenly see someone with my name

    Tahria seems fine as any race to me, robot/plant/human/bird, it fits all in my mind, I like it.

    Patchouli would most likely be copyrighted by The Touhou Project though right? Maybe not though, knowing the Touhou content put into a lot of games, I don't know Touhous copyright rules.

    Not really. If I made it "Patchouli Knowledge", maybe, but "Patchouli" on it's own is nothing that can be copyright.

    Also, "Tahria" without any context is fine, but she's part a very human looking race. Only visual differences for the most part is hair color, eye color, and the fact that males lack an adam's apple. So her being say, a bird, would kind of weird me out >.> But I suppose it's not too big of a deal, if I can get my mind off that and just go with the name because it sounds nice.

    All I did is make about 3 posts and it changed from "Mop" to "Space hobo".
