O.k., I'm making a game kind of like diablo, but i need to come up with a name for the main bad guy. Here's what he looks like (I'm not sure which color to make him yet)
So if you have aaaaaaany ideas for a name, post it. It can be totally made up, or a name of a demon or something from somewhere else. doesnt matter. But it has to sound cool

You mean Beelzebub? It's a good name that isn't used that much, but he would have to be depicted as more of an insect. Eh, it's still a cool name, and you should use it.
I've got some original names, and I could probably think of one right now. Lets see, I've been watching FLCL more lately, and Atemisk is a cool name, so maybe a playoff of that. Or, maybe, combine that with Artemis from Greek mythology. That would come out as Artemisk, and maybe you could add your own unique twist to it!lol
i dont like any of those but thats kind of what im going for 
although artemisk isnt bad, ill keep that one in mind [quote="OsterhouseProductions"]lol

its speling depends a bit on wher you are in the world
for exampel Belsebub comes from the bibel and means Antikrist. Lucifer, Satan, Hin håle or simply the evil one
but your cinda right it is believed it orginated from a mesopotansk (swe speling) god that protects against mosquitoes and a plage of fly's and you offer living ppl to this god by burning them and whas speld Baal-Sebub
sorry got a bit offtopic

ashvomit fondlemaul
offaleye blisterhack
windbrute windcraze

The colour of the beast would probably depend on what general 'theme' you wanted him to be... if he's some kind of underground monster, go brown. If he's a demon summoned from hell, go green. The blue eyes look a bit odd (but hey, at least their not Cliché Red!). Or just have brown AND green skin! Problem solved!
Okay, here is a guide that might help you decide on a name... (Add your own joke about my user name here)
Nameless' Guide to Fantasy Naming.
1. Decide how long you want the name to be, in letters. Generally, more important and dangerous creatures will have longer names. Minor creatures will have shorter names. The exception to this is characters or creatures that must be frequently referred to, and should not have names TOO long or you'll piss people off trying to say them regularly!
2. Slam this many fingers down on the keyboard randomly. For additional fantasy feel, add apostrophes and capitalisation randomly.
And you're done! Now you too can produce excellent and unique sounding fantasy names, such as:
Aspr'bv
Vn Sop
Psdg'rje
P'sdgeef
or even the epic Nsd'hGfmE'bga'mvn!
Wow, some of those are quite impressive. but personally, I'm more of a fan of ASIGUhd'n'KSiugbsdiuhBS'IDHBsdgjhndsg.
I'd suggest OMFG11WTF!BBQ11!
I will think about some good names.
1. Go to http://www.beyondthename.com.
2. Type something like 'dark' or 'strong' into the 'name meaning' box (and perhaps choose 'arabic names' or 'indian names' depending in the feel of your game).
3. Choose a name from the list and contort it a little... add a few apostrophes, replace a 'k' with a 'q'; a 'c' with a 'k'.
Voila. Bad link. Your link redirects to a name meanings website.
Actually it redirects you to a fake ad website. These are websites that take on used-to-be-popular URLs that have expired and put fake content with a search engine which gives them a nickel everytime someone use's the search engine.
I think he meant BEHIND the name.

Yeah, thats a pretty cool site, i put it in my favourites for if i need it again. But I've decided on the name Azael for the bad guy. What do you think?
Sounds too much like Izul or Azural, I don't remember where I've heard of these names, but though it's not as original in my mind, I guess it's pretty original for people who haven't heard of it before. It's your game and I say go ahead and name them whatever you want man. | OsterhouseProductions wrote: |
