Debate of the Day: What Video Game Name Would You Steal For Your Kid?
Word is spreading around the internet that some parents named their kid Tali’Zorah after the Quarian from Mass Effect (who also happened to be my main love interest during the series). Overlooking my e-crush on the girl, is this….uh, cool? Crazy?
It got me thinking, are there any video game character names you’d swipe for your own future kid? Like, what’s cool AND acceptable? In this case, I totally think it’s legitimate to name a girl Tali, though I don’t really see the necessity to go all the way to “Tali’Zorah.” Is her middle name “Vas Normandy”?
Confession time: I’ve always wanted to name a theoretical daughter Sophitia after the Soul Calibur fighter. It’s just such a cool name, and “Sophia” is the new “Ashley” these days in terms of commonness.
I’m not talking about naming your kid something normal like “Nathan” and claiming its after a famous video game adventurer. It has to be a little bit outside the box. Like, Kratos Fenix Tassi or something like that. What’s a cool video game kid name, but one still within the bounds of sanity?
And don’t you dare steal Sophitia from me…
I always thought Liara was a pretty name. My girlfriend agreed until she found out where I go the idea…
That’s always what happens. I was casually throwing names around like Raiden(MGS2) and Elise(SSX) and they were a hit until i revealed where i found them.
For a daughter: Clementine or Jodie
For a son: Nathan or Ryan
Already done it. My daughter’s name is Kairi. From Kingdom Hearts. And, yes, she loves Disney.
If she had been a boy, he would have been named Dante. From DMC.
I have been planning on naming my first daughter Tali (middle name was going to be Zorah).
Revolver Ocelot for a boy
Sonya Blade for a girl
Aeris for a girl
