Need help choosing a new name for this game

[Ny_Jets51]

hey everybody, i cant decide on which name ill use for my PSU character, cause i havent found a name i really like for RPG's and MMO's. Here are a few examples of crappy names i've used, bigblt123(XBL), Purple Haze(FFXI), Holy Smoke (Runescape), Acid Rain (runescape).
So now that you sampled my crap heres a list of names i would like to use but cant choose.

1)Beelzebub (devil, or Lord of the Flys)
2)Lucifer (another devil)
3)Loki (a son of a god, a trouble maker)
*4)Samael (angel of death/poison of god in the Haggadah)
5)Azazel (King of Devils)

yea, that about it, as you can see, i like names that have to do with demons, so which do you think i should use in PSU?[b][u]

[ANIMEniac]

Loki or Azazel

Why not come up with your own name instead of making a reference to some devil?
Can I suggest Fell Crow?

[adamgnome104]

Or you could try something not cliched. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wacko.gif But seriously Azazel sounds kind of cool.

[Ffuzzy-Logik]

Out of all of those, Samael seems the least likely to be a somewhat common name, so I'd go with that.

If you like demonic themed stuff, you could always try one of the various spellings of Mephistopheles.

EDIT: But yeah, I personally wouldn't use any of those. If you're interested in it, you could try looking up some ancient Sumerian/Akkadian/Babylonian deities, they have some pretty interesting names.

Where's the option for "None of the Above"?

[Sammy]

Oh did you know the 'el' at the end of a name is suppose to signify some kind of relation to God? There's an idea you can use to come up with a name.

[DizzyDi]

Azazel sounds the coolest.

[_glowstiq_]

Glowstiqette if female. Glowstiq if male.

[Pikku]

I like Azazel alot...
Also you couldnt have been "Purple Haze" In FFXI because there was no spacing http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

[Ensong]

I remember a character Purplehaze on Asura server.

[ghaleonreborn]

KING OF DEVILS!!!!
LONG LIVE SATAN lol
anyways now thats out of the way
back to listening to slayer on aol radio....

[Sinue_v2]

Al-ghul

Head of the Ghoul, also known as Satan's Head (Rosh ha Sitan).

It's a way to have a "satanic" reference name without being completely obvious or cliche.

Al-ghul more liek Algol amirite?

[Invisible1122]

Al-ghul. So thats where that dude from batman's name came from. Seems like I learn random facts every day.

[Pikku]

What guy from Batman?

[lolichan]

they all suck. no offense.

[Sinue_v2]

Al-ghul more liek Algol amirite?

Well, it serves as a secondary reference. There's several layers of meaning to it. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Algol is actually a real star system, located in the Perseus constelation. It's a binary star system (triple, actually) and it's frequent eclipses cause it's brightness to vary. This marked it as a troubled star to early astrologers - expecially since it's located smack in the middle of the part of the constelation which represents medusa's severed head. Hence, Al-Ghul.

[Ffuzzy-Logik]

Yes, Sinue, I knew all that. I too am a fan of the series, beyond PSO/U.

[tonberrylord]

somehow I think you have taken all these names off of the game Shin Megami Tenchi Nocturne game. Though I know they are from myth and stuff I just thought of that game after reading all the names.
