Preparing for SWTOR - Naming your characters

Quote by Aldente

You choose one name at character creation. You can choose whether to make that sound like a first name or a last name or something ambiguous. There are a large number of titles and some folks argue that some of them sound better if your chosen name is a first name and others sound better if your chosen name is a last name. For instance, if you named your trooper Brad, one of your early titles would make you appear as Sergeant Brad which some might say sounds like a stripper. If you opted to call your trooper Patton, you'd be Sergeant Patton.

The other consideration is that once one of your characters completes Chapter One of your class story, you earn legacy status and can choose a legacy name. The legacy name is used for all your characters. For each character, you can choose to display the legacy name as a last name, as a title following your name, or not display it at all. To continue with the example, you could name your character Brad and choose Patton as your legacy name which would mean that you could run around as:

• Brad Patton
• Sergeant Brad Patton
• Sergeant Brad, the Patton Legacy

If your character was a Bounty Hunter, you could even be Brad Patton, Hired Gun.

Does that help?

I think what we need is something much simpler, like Darth Fabulous.

You're allowed 15-letters for a name, but no spaces. So it would have to be Darth'Fabulous, or maybe Dab'Fab for short.
