    So which NPC has a cool name?

    I like Ferric Ironblade (in Samia's party at Windspear). He's got "iron" written all over him, and Ferric just makes him sound... poisonous :evil: The only thing he's missing is a poisonous sword.

    Well, I like the custom NPC named Goo.

    [EDIT] I forgot to say Noober and his cousin Neeber! I love those guys! :rolling:

    Tough one; can´t remember very many of the names, but Sarevok Anchev comes to mind first. Heh, I bet you didn´t even know he had a surname. Another one: Ellesime. Why? I like of elven names.

    Sarevok's surname... I think I have read it somewhere in the game. Perhaps Rieltar(?) Anchev, his father?

    haven't really figured out what's she's for, but in the crypts underneath the graveyard, there's a woman called "Food." What quest is she involved in, anyway?

    Food? Are you sure about that? There's that spider lady Na'Pai or something like that...

    Here some more interesting names:
    Ribald from Adventurer's Mart - check the dictionary, it means a lewd person; a rascal. Suits him alright, especially in chapter 6 when he charges you just to BROWSE. :mad:

    Aerie - again, the dictionary says its an eagle's (or other predatory birds) nest. Go figure. :hmm:

    Corthala.

    That name rocks. If I were a dark, tall handsome stalker guy with parents as liches, I would definitely want my name to be Valygar Corthala. Heh.

    1)Actualy all the names of noble houses sounds pretty good.
    2)dragon names
    3)Phaere, Imoen, Bodhi, Joneleth
    All the names seem to be natural to me unlike the ones in many other games.

    There's also some halfling in the bridge district pub whose last name is Thunderburp. Funny :D

    I think Gaal from the Unseeing Eye quest means "false god" or something similar. How very appropriate.

    I also like that Baalspawn in Trademeet...what's his name? Viaking or something. I still think Neeber and Noober are the best though...maybe I'll name my next dog Noober. :eek: :rolling:

    Viekang. Viaking sounds like a shortened version of the King of Viagra.

    I like Odesserion (sp) -- It sounds cool and dangerous, whether it's preceded by Edwin or Edwina. DeViir is also pretty slick (I like the "de" prefix, obviously)
