After being annoyed by the various loosers calling themselves Jimmy MClyde and Bobby McJoe, not to mention Ronald McDonald. I have elected to create a simple quiz to define your ideal character name.
Number 1:
Name a Mythological Creature, Fantasy Profession or a Greek-Element (Fire,Earth,Water,Wind).
Number 2: Choose a word, any word, related with the guild wars world, this could be, for example Sword, Glove, Gate.
Number 3: Name your character's profession
Number 4: What are you like, in real life, what do you like, etc.
Post all three of these on the forum, and i will compose a character name for you!
Please be aware, this is a test, which my later become a javascript program on the net, however i am using my own human result for now.

You got the formula, but you don't go the explanation. Your character's name should describe you. I love hip-hop(rap) & r&b, so when I name a character I give it a name that has to do with music.
Examples:
Slayer Aliyah - I named my Warrior after the female r&b artist who died in a plane crash just when her name blew-up
Amerie Trapstar - Amerie is a another female artist that has a few albums out, and did a video and track for the movie "Hitch". A trapper is something a few rappers are(or claim to be), and I got trapstar from the song "Trap Star" on Young Jeezy's album "Lets Get It: Thug Motivation 101"
