Sometimes instead of my 5 letter names, I have to make a two name character. I would use Cen as first name but can never come up with good surnames. I need to find a good catch all surname that works for fantasy / sci fi games and such. Im boring ;D Help me think of something catch all.

Ive used names like Cen Duskhaven, Cen Starsider, etc in games like second life and RDR2 online but I have gotten tired of how overused star is in names too ;D

Star names are pretty popular. Wildstar. Starfield. Maybe Celeste.

I made a last name for my Enchantress for when she hits 20 in P99 which will be Cenra Psygnosis. It sounds like a chanter name and its what my icon over on the left is.

So I was thinking of a weird idea. I remember my first Psygnosis game was called Brattacus, which was a horrible to control game but was really cool and sci fi. The main character's name is Kyne, which is def an odd name. He's the main protagnoist futuristic sword fighting genetic engineer. A weird scientist main character.. not common except maybe Gordon Freeman from Half Life. In gaelic, Kyne means wild goose / wild geese. Apparently people use it as a surname IRL, so I made my pilot in eve online "Cen Kyne" named after the Kyne from Brattacus.

I could see it being old western too, with some goofball called "The wild goose". Considering Cen means one hundred, its like one hundred wild geese. what the fuck am I even doing making up my names lol

It might not work so good for fantasy. I love a lot of your ideas. Except that every other person usually says use obite ;p but P99 green has someone running around with that name too ;D



Speaking of Kyne from Brattacus.. this is the artists cover art of him:

Believe it or not Cen Celesto is one of my top picks ;D I tried to find a male varient on Celestial. Since it was a space game this time Terra based names would work also for planetary stuff. Basically the two main characters of FF6 (celes and terra, i.e. heaven and earth)

Celes has always been my go-to for female names in games... alas, my wife vetoed me when it came to naming our daughter.

Celes is just such a perfect sounding name too. I hope I encounter one IRL someday :p

Sabin was such a cool character too. Course the wrestler knew this as well ;D
