lollipopocoaster Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Lemme just say my own name: Elsa. There hasn't been an Elsa so far, right? Feels like I should know about it if that's the case. I'll drop some more common (Swedish) names here, starting with the female ones, feel free to debunk them if you want to: Maja Ella Ebba Wilma Saga Agnes Molly / Mollie Linnea (Linna, Lina) (If you squint you can turn this into Linn and from there into Lyn, but eh.) Selma Nora Ronja (Ronyah, Ronya) Emelie / Emilia And for the boys... Ludvig (although there is Ludveck. It sounds hilarious pronounced like that in Swedish though, it's like "fluff crease/fold") Melvin Albin Josef / Joseph (I used this list to check the most common names for newborn children in Sweden 2016. As a substitute teacher, I've been around schools a lot the past year and can confirm that most of these names are very common ones.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoimanZX Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 If I remember correctly, Kamui is used for two different characters (once in Gaiden and again in Fates), so using different variants of the same name is not too bad. Of course, I would love to see the name Tim used for some magic user. Helmut would be a fun name, as would Olga or Helga. Because I have the maturity of an 8-year-old, I would suggest names like Woody or Johnson (like the owner of the New York Jets, Woody Johnson) as well as Pico for you Chileans. (I have terrible ideas). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Tullus Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 How about Number 59 Bus Shelter? That's a name. Somewhere. Or Kid. Pirate North (West) Ordette Brobdingnagian Sodren Chance Bethany Edith Dolly I know these aren't common, but there are so many names, that even IS recycles them. Granted, most of the kaga games are fan translated, but still. If there are so many names to choose from, why re-use them when a game may be remade? Then you'll need to rename them to avoid confusion and it seems weird and unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bethany81707 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Honestly, how about Bill, Charlie, Ronald, and possibly Ginevra (depends if you think Guinivere is close enough). I just find it kind of cool we got a George (actually spelled Jeorge, but close enough) in FE1, a Percy in FE6, and a Fred in FE13- all at the start of a fresh era, all things considering. Maybe Bill, Charlie and Ron will be slowly eked out following. Speaking of that reference, I don't think there's a Harry. There's a character who's almost called Hermione (Hermina, FE4), and there isn't even a Harry? The closest we got was a Harold, and that was changed into Arthur over here.

Jotari Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) Huh, interesting topic idea. Think we could collect all the eligible names so far and put them in the op? Just so people don't end up repeating ones that are already suggested? Anyway I'll throw my own name out there. Cillian. Pretty popular where I'm from but disappointingly unpopular in popculture. I'v only envountered one fictional character with the name (Cillian Jones from Once Upon A Time). Few more.

Well, if you consider that Harry is usually a nickname for Henry, then Henry from Awakening covers Harry. :) Same for Bill (variant of Will).

I'd actually consider Serra closer to Sarah than Sara is despite the latter having almost exactly the same spelling. When I see Sara I can't help but think it's pronounced Sa-ra while Sarah is Ser-ah. Though I have of course seen cases where people presume otherwise.
