Game characters that have the same name as you?

[Duck Sandwich]

Thanks to Resident Evil 5, I now have the perfect idea for a ringtone (as soon as I get a phone that I can download them for). See 1:06 to 1:09

Spoiler: youtube

 

[AstylahAthrys]

Yep. Kelly Chambers in Mass Effect. I think that's the only time, though.

 

[The_ModeRazor]

Uhhh... Matt Hazard I guess. Never played the game though.

Not a common name in video games, it seems.

 

[AceTrilby]

Thomas from Deadly Premonition and Thomas from Call of Juarez: Bound In Blood.

Yeeeeeahh, I'm a lot more like the McCall brother, rather than the effeminate cross-dressing one. It got a little embarrasing in dialogue...

That being said, I am a damn good cook, so I suppose there's a little of column B there too.

 

[Smurf McSmurfington]

Well, no, my name isn't all that common here, and it is purely an estonian name, so there is literally zero chance of ever seeing my name pop up in a video game... though my name is derived from (and my parents originally wanted to name me) Erik, though now that I think of it, I don't recall any Eriks from games either...

 

[Rawne1980]

My names Adam and it seems to pop up a few times in games.

 

[Malgan]

Let me know when you find a character named Eskild. I do however react the same way on the name Eric, even though I never have been called it and the pronounciation is fairly different.

 

[Yuki_Seele]

Im sometimes called Joe and sometimes Joseph so i have quite a few it seems.

Joseph Manderley (Deus Ex Head of UNACTO)
Viewtiful Joe
Joseph Turok
Joe Musashi (Shinobi)
Joseph (Super Joe) Gibson (Bionic Commando)
Joseph Capelli (Risistance 2)

 

[Ariseishirou]

I've got Joanna Dark from Perfect Dark, which is pretty rad if you ask me!

 

[Mosesj]

I don't think I've ever encountered game character named Murray.

look up sly cooper, the hippo's called murray.


not sure, josh is too common, I think

 

[Ursus Buckler]

Alec Mayson from Red Faction Guerilla. Never played it either.

 

[Ariseishirou]

not sure, josh is too common, I think

Josh is the little brother Alex is looking for in SH5... other than that the only video game Josh I know of is the main character from ObsCure.

 

[cardinalwiggles]

you mean gordon freeman? i can't think of any..... i joke i joke. michael something im sure theres some but i can't think of any.

 

[Vurtos]

Yep, Garrett from Thief: The Dark Project. Which was a major surprise considering I never run into anybody in real life with that name
=/

 

[Flyingchciken93]

Cant think of any stephens in games off the top of my head

 

[Tzekelkan]

My name comes up fairly often, as names go.

It's pretty meh since it is, of course, a "bad guy" name. See Max Payne 2, Magicka, GTA IV etc.

 

[Reaper195]

Oliver......find me any game that has any character called that, aside from NPC's with randomly generated names each time the game loads.

 

[krazykidd]

Im a black , canadian , made in quebec . My name is Lucien . You know like they main villain from fable 2 or that dark brotherhood guy from oblivion. Yeah color me surprised when i heard those names . I'm the only one with that name i know of .

 

[bruggs]

In Metal Gear Solid 2, the first time you hear Raiden get called, "Jack" was right after the game asked you to input your name.

I freaked out.

"What? Huh? Hooooow?!? Does it have a big database of names or something? It doesn't sound spliced in with the rest of the dialogue! I just...oh...it's his name..."
