discussion Do you change the MC's name and to what?

[Jackobiz]

mostly using default name, if not john or jack

 

[juntokan]

For some reason with I don't remember, my go-to MC name is "MAGE"

 

[Bloemkool]

Chad, MC-kun, anon

 

[goregames]

I use the default name (if applicable)

 

[ZipperMann]

same generic name but nothing to do with me

 

[nazobiz]

Leave the name as standard if the game allows me to do it, in other cases a set of random numbers

 

[rednewtapple]

Yeah, I usually change it to my name; it's more immersive that way.

 

[Anon1990]

If possible I change it to Anon. I guess kind of a habit since a lot of my first game had it as default. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

[satirious]

Dude

Every MC is Dude unless the default name is important to the story

 

[friskwhite]

I usually change the MCs name to something like Frank or John.

 

[WigglyWorld84]

Just curious - what do you, guys, name your MC in the games where name change is possible? Do you keep it default or do you change it?
I always change his name to Dylan, named after Captain Dylan Hunt of "The Andromeda Ascendant" cuz that TV show is one of the very few old time masterpieces.

That show started decent, but holy shit it went off the rails!

You think its a masterpiece? Wish I culd see it with your eyes.

On topic, I use a default name, if possible.

Someone abides.

 

[pyro900]

Yeah, I change the MCs name to mine for better immersion, and if the game allows me to change the names of the LIs I'll change them to names that I like.

 

[susa5411]

I use Peter everywhere, i have no idea why.

 

[apootofgirt]

"I'm a cunt, buddy" as the MC's name, that way they say stuff like "I'm a cunt, buddy can I go play with the dog now, please?"
Love interests: Sisterwife, daughterwife, cousinwife, glassesdaughter... (you get the picture)
this way it's also easier to remember how they relate when you revisit the save

 

[andy0665]

ı keep whatever it is

 

[offblest]

Whatever name fits their character and are common.

 

[frafildur]

So, believe it or not this is like, my 2nd tier internet username............. but in most AVN's, I do the shorthand/nickname version of my Level 1 username. Can you guess what that is? I will be seriously surprised.............. but maybe someone knows?

 

[KantamaroSan]

I like the name Dick McHuge

 

[gestved]

Never, but if I'm forced to pick a name I usually call it Max Power as a joke. Never saw the appeal of just inserting myself into another story
