Dictionary words != names... words like: Juul, Talep, Findar or whatever makes a perfectly fine name, not in a dictionary.

Even if I lower my percentage to 0.00001% of possible combination of letters (and i didn't do 4^26, so i already filtered out a lot of consonant mashups), which is one in ten millions, it would still take about 90,000 iterations of Green to take 0.01% of these names.

It's honestly flabergastingly high as a number the possibilities that we still have open.
You just have to think of a name for your character, not a gimmick word that people will go, "Oh, good one [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]" when they see it.

If anything, this will slightly protect immersion.
Well.
Slightly.
People are still the usual dumbasses they are ^^;

Hell, some people even name their character after a city they lived in or something. losers.

I suspect those names are less desirable than names like:

John, Shawn, Robert, Legolas etc.

Just because you can arrange letters into many different combinations doesn't mean even 0.00001% are desirable. I'd add many more 0s before the 1.
