SPSEliwoodGabriel Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Oh, jeez. A couple of relatives, here and there. If an FE character ends up with my mother's name I'll laugh, because her name is SERIOUSLY uncommon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) I met a boy named Kieran once and he became friends with my younger brother. I also know an Amy and have a cousin named Amy as well. And a cousin named Heather. And another cousin named Noah. And yet another cousin named Amelia. And the first name of one of the players on my favorite NFL team is Ike, but I obviously don't know him in person. XD I don't share my name with any FE characters, but it could be a nickname for Kellam, I guess. lol Oh, I almost forgot, a friend I had when I was little was named Jill. EDIT: Argh, how could I forget I have a cousin named George (Jorge) and my younger brother's name is Daniel? xP Edited June 10, 2013 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vashiane Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 I haven't seen one with my name yet. My name is so common it's not funny - it's unisex and can be both a first name and a surname. So I'm a bit surprised I haven't run into one yet. Fun fact though: if I'd been born a boy, I WOULD have been named Frederick. And my father and grandfather are both Fred.

Anacybele Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Haha, I was going to be named Amelia! But my mom changed her mind at the last minute. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vashiane Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 (edited) Haha, I was going to be named Amelia! But my mom changed her mind at the last minute. :/ It was Frederick Mason Michael if I were a boy, and ALMOST was Cierra if I was a girl, but Mom/Grandmom changed their minds later on. And no, Michael's not my last name. I would have have two middle names. I have two now as well. Edited June 10, 2013 by Vashiane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to be Amelia Catherine (after my mom's grandmother and only having one middle name), but as I said, my mom changed her mind too. xP Imo, it's a way better name than what my mom ended up going with. >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esau of Isaac Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Damn look at that hotness what an exasperatingly awesome and undeniable beast this dude is probably due in no small part to his name I wish I knew someone who shared this character's moniker oh well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Alear Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 My name's Matthew. Guess that thief is a pretty cool guy. Other than that I can't remember. There's this guy who has a face I know just like Joshua, but IIRC his name is spelled Jyosua or something like that...weird. Kid on my tennis team was named Elbert Dude that's awesome.

JSND Alter Dragon Boner Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 (edited) not much since im an Indonesian Although i can play with my own name and it will fit with.... at least 2 FE characters Also since my nickname is radically different from my own name, thats potentially one more. Thankfully there is none from this category >_> Edited June 12, 2013 by I have a Dragon Boner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harkas Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 I've got a few friends with similar names (like Mark and Thomas) and I'm kinda surprised my name hasn't been used yet. Considering there's so many A(error could not load rest of word)s running around it's not even funny. Then again my name or nickname probably wouldn't fit with Fire Emblem.

Esau of Isaac Posted June 18, 2013 Share Posted June 18, 2013 Man knowing each other's first names is fun. I can understand not wanting to hand out your surname, but no one's going to be able to find out who you are from even the rarest first names ever. Unless someone named you, like, SatanMetallicaHumanSlayer or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides Anthony/Tony (Frinkin' GTA I hate you so much!) is sooooooo unspectacular. I always wanted my name to be Andrew for some reason anyway.

Esau of Isaac Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Andrew's a pretty cool name. I swear I'd rather have a simple strong name like John though. I found out that Kyle comes from "caol" which originally referred to a strait recently. I thought that was very nice, since I plan to be a translator or interpreter. Which would let me act as the strait connecting two bodies of water to one another. Neat. Anyways, Anthony's not too bad. For some reason none of my friends named Anthony like being called Tony. .___. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iridium Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 My name is SatanMetallicaHumanSlayer, but people just call me Satan for short. Nobody shares my name, surprisingly. My name is actually really common - David - but I don't think it's actually used in this series yet. I can't say the same about other names, though. Just counting people I've spoken to (and only player characters and major characters), we've got: Seth (a little kid who I babysat, ironically) Ross (second crush :c) Joshua (rival in elementary school, haven't seen since) Marisa (mother's co-worker) Louise (some vaguely related family member) Ryan (technically, my ex-boyfriend) Jake (friend during elementary school) Robert (everyone in my family who has male genitals and is not named David) Rhys (i did a group project with some guy with this name once) Bryce (friend/crush from last year) Alec (knew him in spanish class) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wierd, just about every Anthony I've meant has gone by Tony; including my great-grandpa whom I'm named after. The only exception is one I met in my Computer Apps class who went by Anthony. Still waiting to see some of my friends who actually play Fire Emblem to have their name used though. I swear I'm the only one who plays Fire Emblem at the school I go to.

Topaz Light Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 My younger brother's name is Owen, which is homophonic with Owain on account of being an alternate spelling thereof. Also there's another boy at his high school named Owen, too. I've a grandfather named Robert. A kid in my brother's boy scout troop is named Joshua, and another's name is Daniel. (Or at least, I'd assume it is. Everyone just calls him "Danny") Bonus points for his last name being "Heath". My uncle (on my mother's side) is named Scott, although he and my aunt (who's the one who's actually related to my mom) aren't together anymore so I don't know if he still technically counts as my uncle. I do kinda know him, though. I... think that's all. I know it's all I can remember off the top of my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueFire Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 Robert, Luke, Rebecca, Hannah, Matthew, Kyle, Joshua, and Heather are quite common names where I live; and I assume elsewhere in the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
