Picking a name

Does anyone else have a hard time picking a name for a new character? I can easily design a new character. Facial features, hair, skin color. It's not that big of a deal. But the name. I'll sit for a half an hour sometimes trying to think of a good name.

And not that my toons have awesome names or anything. I'm not looking for judgement. But I want something that I'm happy with.

Yep. I have a difficult time with this too sometimes. I try to come up with something that fits the "theme" of the race I'm playing and the types of names they generally have. I also try to think about any potential nicknames or name shortening that will occur by other players. Some names... should not be shortened.

When I get stymied by that, I go and take a look at a free name generator or two (if the in game one doesn't spur something.)

I can also understand you wanting something you'll enjoy being called. That's only logical and you're not alone.
