Unused Names for ALT's

Recommended Posts

Hello Community,

I got evidence of 2-3 Names that are interessting me who were created on Launch and never were even came Online. GM's are unfortunately not willing to unlock those so im'a trying in this Way. 

Someone got any Rare/Epic Alt Names that are not in use anymore / inactive and is willing to free them up? I dont have a Business,  iaint Chinese either. Its for an Alt of my own, one fine Name. 

Suggestions to call my Alt "Kumbucket" or "Illidanxxx" i must refuse with all my respect. Even though i had a good lough so far in my research :) 

Thank you dear Community,

I totally believe you. Still, I'd like to once again propose my suggestion above.

I have to agree with Oakenlix on this one. Your request is extremely open ended and quite frankly, you seem to lack imagination. First off, knowing the race and class of the character you wish to name is useful. For instance, I rolled a dwarf priest. What is there about dwarves that stands out? They tend to drink (or at least their /silly emotes strongly implies such). And the priest was going to be holy for healing? So a rather obvious name is "Whatalesyou" (What Ales You). Nice simple, and unique as well as a pun. For night elves (of whatever class), the thing that comes to mind is nature and moonlight. Leafrustle, Moondancer, etc. come to mind for me. All easy to come by. If you're looking for names like "Richard", "John", "Fred", "Nancy", etc., well there's bad news for you, you're too late. Don't even attempt to get those names. But if you wish to come up with "real" names that aren't in use, the various mythologies are quite useful. For instance, dwarves seem to have a scottish accent. So look up Scottish mythology for some names of various characters within the myths. Trust me, they all haven't been taken. The architecture of night elves tends to have an oriental feel to me. So Chinese and Japanese mythology comes to the rescue there. Or go within warcraft lore for names. You're not likely to actually get a name that's in the lore, but look for patterns. A name like Steelfist works well for a dwarf. Anvilhammer also works. So just simply make your character and figure out a name. If it's already in use, pick another one. Another example of a name would be to look up J.R.R. Tolkein Lord of the Rings series. There's an appendix with a summary of the various invented languages Tolkein made. And I'm sure you can build a name there. For instance, when I played D&D some years back, I created a character with the name "Durvalamarth" Quite easy to pronounce. And if you look up the appendix, you'll see that name consists of 3 parts... "Dur" meaning "Dark", then "Val" meaning "Power", and finally "Amarth" meaning "Doom" so the translation of that name is "Dark Power of Doom". A very nice name for a character in Warcraft. And you can build plenty of names that way (on a side note, I frequently used the name "Durval" in retail and was initially rather happy that the only "Durval" in the Armory was my character. Was rather annoyed when as time went by and due to Blizzard building a database of names for those without imagination to populate the name field when they select a random name, I soon found quite a few characters on various realms named "Durval". In any case, this post is more than long enough. Don't worry about "someone else has a name I want" and instead MAKE YOUR OWN.
