    I'm starting up Final Fantasy III for the DS and I hate all of the main character's names. I came up with quite a few ideas. The problem? They're all seven letters long. I need some ideas for cool names that are six letters or less. Be creative!

    BTW, I already came up with names for the girl and one of the guys. So that means two guys are left.

          Burrito and Phizzle? Did you not hear me? I said SIX LETTERS OR LESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

          That'd be funny though. "Burrito! Hit 'im with your sword!"

          Maybe, but I was thinking more along the lines of non-traditional names. But for some reason I kinda like Samuel. I might end up using that anyway.

                I hear you, Split. I'm just a slow typer.
                @GL: lol. It took me a long time to beat GS so those names are engraved in my brain. This is my first time playing any FF, so I was kinda hoping for something new.

                Using Piers did cross my mind, though...

                      It never bothered me. I thought the character names in FFIII were fine.
                      I would suggest Reginald but it's too big. Reggie?

                        The names I really wanted to use were Vladmir, Alastor, or Alucard. Each seven letters. *sigh*

                        And yes, I was playing too much Castlevania recently.

                          Vlad perhaps? Then again, shortening names like that means they don't sound so good.

                              I was flipping through the Chronicles of Narnia books and found two names that I liked: Aravis and Miraz. New problem: the other two names that I already picked out don't fit in. *slaps self in face*

                              In the games I play, I usually name the main character-guy Rocket. (Aravis, Miraz and Rocket?!?) I like Kefka, it works.

                              What about a girl's name? I thought of Zanne, but...

                                        Some of the names I like to use in RPGs are Dante, Blade, and Jace. Always liked them, I don't know why.


                                        I have a friend who uses Blade. What's up with the Blade fetish?

                                          I finally found a few names that might work for a girl. They are all names of Egyptian goddesses.
                                          Isis - protector of children
                                          Neith - goddess of war
                                          Satis - goddess of hunters

                                          Suggestions? Opinions?

                                            God names are always good.

                                            Astarte? I forgot what she's the god of.

                                              In my opinion comedy posh names beat mystic ones anyday. Still it's your choice, though I can't imagine a level 3 black mage being named Satis.

                                                You hate the names in FF3 this much? O_o

                                                I don't like extreme, bizarre fantasy names like, oh, Zyghnys or something. That just doesn't do anything for me.

                                                How about Elric? It's a good name, and I use it a lot for RPGs. It's an interesting name that isn't typical yet not out there.

                                                If you REALLY need new names, try giving this a perusal: http://www.rinkworks.com/namegen/
