I use either Theophenes or Mikhayl online. In RTS and RPG's, I just make up crap. Constantly. Also, I likr using random names sometimes. Lucienne Halim is still on of my favorites.

Pantsoffdanceoff or Cheaty McSpeedy, unfortunately those are usually too long so I go with Wolfwood if I have to.

Although I did see someone with the name "Bill Nye the Nazi Spy", and I thought that was above the rank of godliness.

I try to come up with things that'll make people chuckle. When I played world of warcraft, I was the almighty druid Elbow.

I generally name my non-RP characters "Crazzee"(And occasionally my RP characters, too.)
RP characters are pretty hard for me. It's all about creativity in the name. Most of mine escape my mind right now, but they almost always turn out good, because I put tons of thought into it.

What you should be asking yourself when creating a character is not "what sounds cool?" but "what's the most inappropriate thing I could name it without getting banned?"

Personal highlights: Donkeyhose, Tossgobble, Creamcannon, Dussypischarge, Queef.

Additional points awarded for names that seem fairly innocuous at first glance e.g. Sharialaw or Dyovaydes.

As for people who name their characters stuff like: Funnydk, Firepaladin (a hunter?!), or Politedk... Just say no kids!

I opt to use the name of a character from the stories I have written or give it some due thought, creating one specifically for that character; Lucretion is the one I fancy most recently.

I just stick two words-one rude and one banal-together to create silly names. Like cockbox (FFIX). Or Larry Lepercock (Oblivion).

I think of my own name, and try to combine words together then edit it like crazy to make it sound cool. Like my username here was made because of one moment of thinkinga bout killing ass and Russia. Lol. RASSAN!

Take two fingers, close your eyes, hit the alpha zone of the keyboard, take those two letters and stick a consonant or a vowel between them, bingo.

Another idea is to ask your parents what their second choice for your name might have been, and use that. :D

I usually go with either something original that just pops into my head and doesn't sound completely ridiculous, an anagram of something that makes sense for the character, perhaps sans or plus a letter or two (such as Thels for a stealthy thief, etc.), or the name of my original RPG chracter, Rala.
