discussion Naming the MC

[kakarottooalgo]

I go for BRUCE, my dog, he used to hump on every single fucking thing in my house lmao before i castrate him sad_emoji

Shit dog Bruce got the Bad ending

 

[Karamchad]

What a wimp subject.

 

[Viir Hahnu]

Depending on the setting and themes I have two different names including surnames.
Both characters have slightly differing mindset's and traits.
And before any one says it, I know I'm a dork.

 

[JoshXD]

I always use my name, I feel that this way I identify more with the protagonist and it even makes me feel like I'm really me.

Make up a random name or use what the game wants to name the MC.

 

[Beegee]

I always used to use the joke name Chad Thundercock, but it got weird and silly when his female family members were named Thundercock. It made them sound like futas, so I changed it.
Now they still get to be named after what they want, and what he provides.
His name is Chad Morecock.

 

[DaniGiggles]

I use Leo Kliesen, works well for both female and male characters

 

[Belledae22]

i like to use nick names or names from past relationships

 

[life.on.europa]

Definitely a self insert for me

 

[Seo In-guk]

I have two but I mostly use: Vicenzo and sometimes Axl when I feel the game is boring.
Vicenzo for the character from the kdrama of the same name and Axl for Guns N´ Roses

Self insert

 

[Gornpa]

I typically use either a nickname or one of my middle names. That way I can decide if I want this to be me, or some evil sick and twisted fantasy version of me > just a glimpse into the dark world that is my mind >

 

[badboy696]

My MC always gets the same name... "Jack" and if its ask for a surname, i go for "TheRipper" or "Sparrow"

 

[Boberson1234]

Yea I self insert.

 

[xatfx]

I systematically use the same nickname, just to put myself in the MC's shoes

 

[NerveTrooper98]

It seems to be pretty standard nowadays but I usually keep them as default

 

[jabax69]

I usually use something close to my name, but not exactly the same. So, self-insert pretty much

 

[Ganondork]

I press enter for the default. If not I do a Mike Hawk. Ben Dover. Dick Fitzwell.

 

[bdogvn25]

I use my nick name. It's helps immersion and revs up the sex scenes for me.

 

[MercurioC]

I use my name or a nickname most of the time
