Something occurred to me

Y'know, I've always had trouble coming up with names of RPG characters. Tonight a possible source of randon names recently came to me.

Porn spam.

Not just any porn spam, but in particular the ones that use randomly-generated names to try and make you think it's just a normal person. Just something that came to me.

Any thoughts?

I usually go with the baby name book as well, but something else to ponder... Ever notice that people usually pick rarely heard or uncommon names for their characters? You almost never see a Bill, Bob, or Dave. Not saying that there's anything wrong with that, just interesting, maybe to make the character seem special, or cos it's a break from the ordinary like gaming is supposed to be. Just something that made me think...

Peace.
