Yahtzee's naming conventions

[targren]

Probably the most ridiculous was one of my Fallout 3 characters, who I named Archchancellor Ridcully P. Diddy. Also, I named my rival ??? in Pokemon Silver because I couldn't be bothered to think of an actual name for him and wanted to keep him all mysterious.

I did that, many many years back, for the girl in "Battle of Olympus." It was one of those "Forever Alone" moments.

Also, I must add: Discworld, Fuck Yeah!

Since getting caught up in the Brony phenomenon I've been using MLP names where I can. My Dark Souls character is a purple-haired mage named TwilightSparkl.

In MW3 multiplayer, Applejack is the heavy weapons class, Rarity is the sniper, Fluttershy is the silenced stealth class, Rainbow Dash is the fast-running dual-wielding showoff class, and Twilight Sparkle is a standard soldier.

Its funny that ingame you have people who thought really hard about their name and then you see "The Luna Ranger was killed by Rainbow Dash". Its a pretty big blow to morale.

I wonder if Yahtzee himself actually names his characters like this or just for the review titles.

Named my character Prisoner in Skyrim. About as fun as it gets for me...
I tend to stick to the actual name, and if there isnt one I'll make a serious one.

I named mine jaardvick because it sounded psudo norwegion to me and felt like it fit the game theme. I often name characters JDub because that was my nickname in college.
