depends very much on what type of game it is
JRPGS i usualy go with some of my favorite characters from manga
Dating Sims ...usualy my own name written in katakana[atleast my first name]


pen and paper rpg i usualy name my characters after favorite hockey players[from when i was growing up]

Offline games I just keep it default. For online FPS, I prefer something fun and not "in-your-face" type of name. I usually stick with D4z3D; if someone gets offended or pissed at that then I think they need some therapy, lol. As for MMOs I've been favoring Agni and Rudra (from Devil May Cry 3) lately.

Something involving genitals.

I choose some random letters that sound or look nice when they are in a line, but the names usually contain one m or a cause these are my favourites letters

Hum... it depend on what sort of game... if it Rune factory (sort of farming, RPG) i use the name Rayan... it not mine but i take it for fun and for online game at least one of my character is named Frank93, it my nickname with my birth year, so i really doubt someone else than me take it. In pokemon I take the one of the default name (hint: not red)

I used to have random names for the character when i was younger.
But at one moment i sticked to one name cuz i didnt rlly play any other games.
But recently i have used japanese names.
Wanted to use anime/manga character names but they are normally taken so i made up a name/names.
Like: Tegari, Terumi, Nareki.
Mostly use Tegari now.

I generally use Trina. She was originally a character I used for rps, but then just sorta evolved. She's a mercenary, though, so if I want to play a mage or tank I have to use a different name.

If I don't use Trina, I like weird sounding names. Like Yana or Tosh.

If I have a guy character, which I sometimes do, I just again do the weird sounding names, although I've noticed that for guys most of my favorite names start with J.

________________

I use defaults when the character has one. I also have a few names I use if the character does not have a name, like Rabin, Wuta, or Celas.

Manga chracter names lol

________________

for offline games i using the name that a character already has, for online games i usually stick with my own name (Margaretha), though sometimes i use the names in my favorite manga/anime characters

Um..... Kind of random I suppose personally..
I have some names that travel across games, sometimes it's random sounds I push together to be a name (Sumasuun for example) and sometimes it's the default name. It all depends on how I'm feeling at the moment.

If it's a casual game, mog. My account name is always mogiks. Otherwise probably some sort of fantasy name. I write fantasy so I often draw from the names of my major characters (I use Luka a lot), or anything I like the sound and the spelling of. Occasionally I'm feeling humorous so I might do something with a pun. I like doing this in Pokemon especially when I name the guy who you're always competing with, or with any of the Pokemon I catch. Sometimes I get a bit carried away and these turn into really obscure in-jokes relating to other fandoms or one of my own stories, or a foreign language pun or some sort of mockery of one of the character's attributes.

I think the only time I used the default was in FFX when you had an option to change Tidus's name, but it's so iconic I didn't want to.
