    I realy like names with ui, ae, ii, gh, kh, ly, sz enz in it.
    Sometimes I choose old-dutch or scandinavian names or mixes. Hildegard, Madelein, Mareijke, Ghysbrecht, Wilhelm etc I don't use them often though.

    Aesgareth (ToB) is a nice one, but I don't use it. Same with Szass Tam, Hrothgar and many others.
    Ghardaluihen, Attamacilli (2 swords in quenya, at least something like that)

    Elaellur is my current char.

    Feel free to seek me out for that. I'm a Pole and a humanist skilled in tongues. If someone wants Latin or ancient Greek I could help as well.

    Urghazi - Latin or something for 'wolf demon'
    Dyrmangos - from a book meaning zombie form of a necromancer
    Lupin - Italian variant for wolf. usually used for druids.
    Naro Wildmace - Drow cleric. made up by some name generating site. i thought it was pretty cool

    any name from another language is cool because they sound different from our own. (bit corny?)

    Mostal de Sor sounds like a Jewish first name name with a Spanish last name ;)

    Speaking about strange names and paladins, mine (IWD2) - yes, I finally started playing :D , is called Rochir o Nelvarad.

    Strongheart Halfling - Taslehoff Burrfoot
    Aassimar - Godrik Gryphindor or Raistlin Majere depends on my humour at the moment. Sometimes I call him Salazar Slytherin... It depends which portrait I will choose:
    This:http://www.planetbaldursgate.com/iwd/character/portraits/male15.jpg
    Or the other red one, I can't find it...

    I find it interesting that you named your character after a female Greek god.

    I came up with a cool name yesterday when I restarted my IWD2 game.

    Malyin Shadowshear, a female, human Rouge 1/ Necromancer X. That's the best name I've come up with in awhile.

    Hm, as Artemis was not in that Xena series I am not surprised at all.
