Dragoncat Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 You can rename Robin/Avatar...so why not his/her kid? Would you rename if you could, or are you fine with that name?
Draco Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I'm fine with the name. I wouldn't change it, probably.
Dragoncat Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 Yeah. I wouldn't know what to change it to. But it would be nice.
shadowofchaos Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 マーク (Mark/Marc) is superior. アメリア is even better. [/weebing]
Draco Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I usually name my avatar (or most things, tbh) after myself, so if I had the option, I guess I'd name him/her "Draco".Yes, I know what you're thinking. Look, it's my 2nd most common name.
Dragoncat Posted October 3, 2014 Author Posted October 3, 2014 I would name things after myself if I actually liked my real name. Well, Rene comes from part of my middle name...but meh. Since my Morgan's father is Lon'qu, Mo'gan comes to mind...in a fanfic I had 4 year old Morgan interested in the apostrophe names of Chon'sin and wanted his name to look like that. They didn't end up changing it of course. But it is a pretty good looking name xD
Anacybele Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I find it odd that you can't name Morgan myself. I don't really like that name either, I'd have named him something different. I dunno what name I would pick though...
Magical Glace Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I'd probably name MMorgan Yuno. And FMorgan Nanoha.
Maxkibram Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 I like that you can't change Morgan's name. It makes Morgan feel like a real character in Awakening instead of some self-insert character. I mean, if you let people change Morgan's name, you might as well let them choose Morgan's appearance, class and voice actor from the title screen.
Rydia Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Well, I'd keep the name Morgan, actually, but... I live in Europe, our Morgan is Linfan and holy guacamole, it's just terrible! So, yeah, I'd probably change his/her name in Morgan myself.
shadowofchaos Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Well, I'd keep the name Morgan, actually, but... I live in Europe, our Morgan is Linfan and holy guacamole, it's just terrible! So, yeah, I'd probably change his/her name in Morgan myself. Take out that last N and it'll automatically be so much better. At least for FeMorgan.
Rydia Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Oh, I just love the name 'Linfa', not because it sounds chinese or anything but because it actually it's the italian worlf for sap and... it could be very lovely for a female unit. But I mostly play as a F!unit and... with the male unit it just won't work. I still call them "Morgan" in my head, thought. (also, nice pic!)
VincentASM Posted October 3, 2014 Posted October 3, 2014 Yeah, two self-insert characters would be a bit too much. Also, maybe your partner always picks the name? : P Personally I think it's just 'cause they wanted to have a little throwback with FE7's Mark (Morgan was Mark/Marc in the Japanese version, which is another word for "Emblem").

Maybe Avatar and his/her spouse just don't feel like waiting until their kid is born to pick a name, so they use the first unisex name they can think of. Although, I don't know any male Morgans irl...I know like 2 or 3 people with that name, but they're all girls. 2: Really? That's interesting. Female Morgan too? Mark is a male name...

Dragoncat Posted October 4, 2014 Author Posted October 4, 2014 Yeah I guess you didn't. Maybe I thought you had named your MU that. Sometimes I think I'm a blond in a brunette's body xD
Alastor15243 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Well, I'd keep the name Morgan, actually, but... I live in Europe, our Morgan is Linfan and holy guacamole, it's just terrible! So, yeah, I'd probably change his/her name in Morgan myself. It doesn't sound that bad. How is it pronounced? Is it pronounced like "Lyn fan", Lyn fahn, or, I assume, like "Lahn-fahn" because it's supposed to be a pun on the french for "The child"? I heard about that. I had been tossing around an idea of a fanfic and I figured that if both male and female morgan showed up in it, Male morgan would be named Morgan and FeMorgan would be named Linfan...
phoenixmiko Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Luckily, Morgan remains as such in the UK version of Awakening. Whilst it would have been interesting to have had the option to rename him or her if desired, I think it is a good name for the character because it is used for boys and girls. Seeing as the child is known as Mark in the Japanese version, the name change makes sense.
Ownagepuffs Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 Cuz' Mark (his weeb name) is a reference to FE7.
Queen Sars Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 Never really bothered me that you couldn't name them. I always figured the spouse named them. Maybe they named them after a Morgan they knew or perhaps while the lady of the two was pregnant some person named Morgan helped them with something. I kind of think that Morgan having their own name makes them more of their own character rather than just the Avatar's child. That's my two cents on it anyways. Take out that last N and it'll automatically be so much better.At least for FeMorgan. Morgan would become one of the best and most forgetful bathhouse owners ever. To all those people who get Morgan as "Linfan" I always thought that name was pretty cool too, I'm a little jealous.
MrSaturn64 Posted October 13, 2014 Posted October 13, 2014 I'm fine with both names, but I find Robin a better name for Morgan. Don't know why. Seems to fit his/her personality better.
Melissa Posted October 14, 2014 Posted October 14, 2014 I'm fine with both names, but I find Robin a better name for Morgan. Don't know why. Seems to fit his/her personality better. Whatever floats your boat, sir
