Yume-Jam Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) The characters I made in reverse order are: The Psycho ~ Kamikaze. I've still barely used him (currently level 12). The Ninja ~ Silent Slash is my main Many Must Fall slicing & dicing Assassin. (My Assassins on other profiles focus on other skill trees.) The Soldier ~ At first I named him All Guns Blazing but recently changed his name to Free. I love it as a name and it alludes to Sol-Badguy & Axton's divorce, ex-military status (I think), and bisexuality. The 'Zerker ~ I first named him ! which I still love but I'm gonna change it to All Guns Blazing, the name of Sol-Badguy's original instant kill attack (named after a Judas Priest song). It fits the Gunzerker for obvious reasons. The 'Mancer ~ Rouletta is named after one of my own charactors, Roulette, whose trademarks include unique guns, eccentric hair & attire, and randomnessness. Gaige's skills dealing with inaccuracy and/or ricocheting also related to Roulette who tends to shoot without aiming or caring who/ what she hits. The Siren ~ One day in a dream, I was in some sort of darkish semi-wilderness where there were people, animals, & perhaps monsters, & dilapidated structures. I don't remember which I did it to, but I aimed at one with my left hand and said "Freeze" trapping it inside a dark ball of energy as it hovered above the ground. Later that day (after I woke up) I watched a trailer for Borderlands 2 in which Maya did the very same thing, using her Phaselock. (Of all the things she could've said, "freeze" was the one.) This was the first time I learned of Maya's existence or her powers. The next day as I slept again, I kept picturing or dreaming BL2 arriving at my door (as I'd ordered it online). Eventually I got up and it was there . So naturally, I picked Maya first and named her Yume ~ she's named after me and for the fact that I used her powers in a dream before I knew she existed.

FayeLeeKitty Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I never named my characters for Borderlands 2. Oops! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mister_Elbow Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I just named my Soldier Roland just cause of the Blands 1 soldier but mostly cause of The Dark Tower Series of books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurobleidd Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I never named my characters for Borderlands 2. Oops! This, I usually just stick with defaults anyways because I prefer them over what I usually create. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starrk_01 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I just stuck with the default names. Not that creative I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon-Archon Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 she's named after me and for the fact that I used her powers in a dream before I knew she existed. Have you ever considered the possibility that you're a Siren . Anyway I haven't played Borderlands 2 (yet), but in Borderlands 1 I stuck with the default names.

PREDRAG-K Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I also stayed with default names. I don't like changing characters names in games like these, only in MMOs or RPGs where the character is 'generic adventurer'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revvie Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I didn't named them. Im sticking in their default name. BTW your creative in naming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyondthegrave07 Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 I wouldn't call this creative, but I shortened all their names (except 1 of them) Maya - Mai Salvador - Sal Axton - Ax Zero - Lelouch* * named after Lelouch vi Britannia from Code Geass because Lelouch took the pseudonym "Zero" to hide his identity so I decided to reverse the roles and give Zero the pseudonym "Lelouch" to reference my favorite anime. It was the only name I got "creative" with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 because I prefer them over what I usually create. Same here, i kept Maya because i'm not creative and it's already her name, why change it? It's like... if you could change Kratos's name, i know i wouldn't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terra Leonhart Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Like most i didn't change Maya's name. because i don't see a point if there is going to be a Borderlands 3 her name is still going to be Maya. All the main characters from BL1 have there default names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yume-Jam Posted December 9, 2013 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 I didn't named them. Im sticking in their default name.

Dragon-Archon Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) Commando: Axton Siren: Maya Gunzerker: Salvador Assassin: Kakashi, because "zer0" is quite a lame name. Edited January 14, 2014 by Dragon-Archon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
