Hey guys.

So i'm a new EVE player, but i can't really think of a good surname for my character. Azure doesn't really match. I usually have tons of idea, but this time i'm just beaten. Any tips how you got an idea of your EVE surname ? Could really help a lot.

Thanks,

You can't change your name once picked.

Haha, so i've made this character only to write on forums, since i can't do it otherwise. I'll delete it later.

Anyway, i'd go with nick only but i'm afraid one part name is privilege of old players only ;)

Been thinking about some variations like Azureshade, but i don't want to end up with smth cliche :P

To actuall answer your question: try and google something up. There are name generators, maybe you can use one of them to find something, or just inspire you.

Look up stuff that is awesome and see if there is something that inspires you.

Doh. I fancied to write about the "No Name" sisters... Sad

Also, why you couldn't have Achuran sisters? I have a 25% Gallentean cousin...

The only thing we share is the love for cake.

Edit: it is funny how we hijacked OP's thread.

We're very bad gurrls... Lol

OK, to the OP: I suggest you using the forum search engine to look for threads about player names, there's been two or three last year and they offer a good insight on how and why people choose their character names.


PS: well, here there are some threads about character names:

Tsolyรกnu is the name of the empire. Tsolyรกni is the adjectival form of the name as well as the name of the language. If I could have figured out how to put the accent in during the character generation, I would have.

Or maybe a bastardization of your own surname, like I did; something with a windmill, with a french accent because :lolgallente: Bear

mine is borrowed from some roman fellow who did some stuff and was apparently kind of a big deal.
