help me name him and/or doesn't that expression scream "bloodsucking fiend?"





That's my new desktop and character, courtesy of the fabulous Locknestra and a Russian model website. I think I went a bit incoherent on my friend when describing my reaction. Isn't it neat?

But yes, that's my (revamped, hah!) Toreador. Spazzy, cross dressing, catty, kleptomaniac and obsessed with shiny objects. He's a jewel thief and con-vampire extraordinaire. Trying to apportion between Auspex and Celerity for this creature was a bitch. Definitely European, definitely around 200 years old, who knows what nationality he might have been. He started his career in Paris and has steadily been plying the capitals of Europe for ages.

My problem is that I'm having a hell of a time settling on a name. Originally the character was called Jaime, because no one ever knew what gender it was. Not even me. I'm thinking however that this incarnation is definitely a boy, but one not afraid to put on the skirts when he needs to get something.

So what do I call him?

Best site I ever used for RPG names was http://www.behindthename.com ... not sure how much it may help though, but at least it gives oodles of various options!

Vincent. :) First name that came to mind looking at the pic. That or Jean-Paul.

Some of these are pretty gender-specific...

...but they randomly came to me as I was meditating upon the visage of your chap:

+ The Marquis
+ Ronin
+ Augustin
+ Fauve
+ GAYLORD (just kidding!)
+ Paris (why not?)
+ Rupert (it's the gaydar)

I'm playing World of Warcraft right now and I had the hardest time naming my troll/warrior. He ended up with a giant blue mohawk and is known across the lands as Grimbald. All shall tremble in his wake!

I love Augustin! Mmmm.

Grimbald the Troll, that is so awesome. You know, I saw someone with a giant blue mohawk the other day on the street. I stopped in my tracks because it's been ages since I saw a real one.

I love the sound of Jean. Mmm, thank you.

Maybe I should call him the Marquis Paris Ruper Gaylord, just to cover all bases. :P
