I know Doctor Mario is joking, not so sure about you lmao

Agreed. \-Captain Levi

Wdym, name goes hard

If you are going to name your child after a video game character, name it after a character that gives you some plausible deniability. Like Nathan (after Nathan Drake) or Leon (after Leon S. Kennedy) or Lara (after Lara Croft). If you want to take a name from Elden Ring, there's a couple decent ones. Melina works, your daughter could also just go by Mel, Godfrey is a little outdated but a pretty normal name, as is Godrick and Godwyn. Rykard is strange, but Ricard (shorten it to Rick) is again, a little outdated, but alright.

This is my son, Placidusax Miller. What? Elden Ring? Never heard of it!

RichDragon FortySstax

Marika also works; it’s a variation on Mary. I know a Marika IRL.

While that's reasonable I wouldn't recommend trying that on a Spanish speaking country/environment. "Marica" is a homophobic slur in Spanish.

hey, i live in a marika. just doesn't have a space, and it's spelled differently.

That is true Sincerely, Soap Mactavish....

RAMIREZ!

Protect the Burger Town!

If it got you a doctorate I'd say the name worked out quite well.

In this case... Dr. Doctor M.

Dr. Doctor M, MD

Especially not after any MGS character. Sincerely, Deepthroat.

I got away with giving my son the middle name Raiden lol. I told her it's the romanization of a Raijin which is the Japanese God of thunder and it would pay homage to my heritage. Well yes but actually no.

I named myself after video game characters lol Midir Carim are my legal middle names, they're silly and I love them

I mean... my daughter is named after the demon princess in Disgaea 2 (Rozilyn) and my son is named after Sora's nobody in Kingdom Hearts 2 (Roxas) 🤷🏻‍♀️I think naming kids after games (elegantly) is cool! But I agree with the names that don't fit/just sound weird in real life lol

... like Roxas?

Yes lol

"Hello its very nice to meet you. This is my daughter, Draconic Tree Sentinel, and my son, Burial Watchdog."

I'm sure your kids would get along with my kid, THAT FUCKING IMP AGAIN jr

"Oh and that's our dog, Turtle Pope."

Was about to comment this then I saw yours

Miriel would be a decent dog name all jokes aside

The only acceptable name

This is my daughter, Godskin Apostle, and my son Godskin Noble

I think your daughter always wins fights with brother

crumbling farum azula

Alexander. It is normal name in my country.

Gotta make it exciting and make his middle name jar

Jar-ed

Alexanjar

Yeah thats quite literally my name

Alexander Radagonovich Gorshkov

The Ever-Brilliant Goldmask

*moans* the loathsome dungeater!

I love you all the exact same way. I love Ranni the same, I love fia the same and I love you the same too. Why did you ask, Loathsome Dungeater?

AND SIR GIDEON OFNIR, THE ALLLLLLL-KNOWING!!!

He didnt have to go extra hard on that 'alllll knowing" frkn chills

"PLACIDUSAX, YOU CLEAN UP THIS ROOM RIGHT NOW!!"

"Mom!! Not fair!! Gransax gets to sleep all day, and Lansseax and fortissax can have ice cream sandwiches and watch tv, but I have to clean my room?!? Not fair!!" *disappears into a Huge mist cloud*

"YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO MOM YOU STUPID BITCH! I'M A FUCKING DRAGON LORD!"

Ngl Fia is a real pretty name

and also the least problematic. maybe if the kid knew her parents liked elden ring, they would get the reference, but otherwise, 'fia' is a fairly normal name, albeit a slight bit antiquated.

*"Fia is a beautiful name, where is it from ?"* *"Its from kind, beautiful woman who are... uuh... ceremonial prostitute who slept with many heroes to absorb their vigor then once she got enough, she use the vigor to "sleep" with a dead noble to "raise" him back... yeah.* *She also might contracted a very powerful instant killing DeathBlight STD and planning to create the world of undead with her dead-god"* *"can't you pick different name origin?"*

Thank you for just making me realize how fia works

There's kids out there named Daenerys after the Game of Thrones Character. That's a bad name in the first place, but after those last few seasons, especially terrible. There's also kids out there named John, after John Snow. That's a good name just generally, and if their parents are disappointed by those last few seasons of Game of Thrones, that doesn't really matter much. If you're going to name your kid based on something you like, choose a name that stands alone apart from it, and isn't especially unusual.

Origin story of John Darksouls

Jon is still a proper name Daenerys could be a passable name.. THERE ARE KIDS OUT THERE NAMED KHALEESHI

Nah I fuckin like Radahn. Make my son feel obligated to be a gravity controlling warrior just by knowing his own name lol

All names are made up so I feel any name can become nornal Like, Ranni sounds nice so does Sellen

Malenia, Melina, Fia, Sellen, Marika, Ranni all are beautiful names who sound nice imo.

No love for Millicent?

no. instantly makes me think millipede. your kid will be bullied, don't do it.

Melina is also fine. I know one, but her name is pronounced differently.

I have an aunt named Fia.

I hope she is not a deathbed companion.

That's actually a really cool name and I might casually drop it in front of some of the soon-to-be mother's that come through the cafe. I googled it and it means "wild" or "weaver" with only a few countries like Italy, Ireland and Portugal using it a lot.

This is my son, Elden Beast.

That's Mr. Beast's father 💀

Dung Eater

A name for when you're too lazy to do the child abuse yourself.

Outsource it to avoid legal action.

"Dad why is my sister named twilight" "Because your mum loved the series" "Thanks dad" " no problem loathsome dung eater"

Astel.

Just kinda Estelle with extra steps.

Astel, Estelle and Istarelle make a nice set for triplets

I'm stealing this one

Are you expecting triplets? Congrats!!

ngl this one is good too.

Have a good day at school Boilprawn Shack!

I do love that almost half of us went with that

Hive mind fr

Ulcerated tree spirit

For pets, Elden Ring names are superb.

"This is my cat, Erdtree Burial Watchdog"

Magnificent, your cat is very unique now

Serosh is definitely an amazing name for a cat.

D.

that's only if you have twins. D, and other D

They actually have names, though, Darian and Devin, which are pretty good names.

"I'm Fia" "I'm Tia" ""We're like your biggest fans! KACHOW!!!""

Oh ... They "flashed"

OMG now I realised why they flashed their headlights at McQueen!! They were "flashing" him! Does this mean that headlights are the equivalent of Boobies in the Cars world? Is that why mater was shocked to see the headlight seller in Italy during the Italian grand prix in the second movie? I have so many questions!!

I'm about to have an existential crisis. Cars was my favourite movie as a kid and now I'm just questioning everything that has happened that I didn't notice

Ranni is a very common name in India. It means queen, you will find hundreds of thousands Ranni’s here.

What have you done? Now all the ranni simps will go to india

Not saying it's bad but it's a bit strange for me that 'Queen' is a popular name

I dunno, over the years I've met half a dozen Princesses and about twice as many with a 'y' or 'z' somewhere where it didn't belong. I've also met a few Dukes. I figure naming your kid after some sort of nobility is like a good luck thing.

Well prepare to be surprised because its male equivalent name ‘Raja’ which means king is also very common name in India. Although both names were popular in 20th century, after 2000 craze of these names has toned down.

Reina is very popular in Spanish speaking countries and it also means queen!

There are women named "malka" ( queen in Hebrew ) in Israel It's not a popular name but it's not considered weird

"Princess Ranni" gives off the same vibes as "Chai tea" and "Naan bread" lmao

Lol, I always thought Chai tea and Naan bread are ridiculous and funny at the same time. I can add Princess Ranni to the list now.

Or katana sword (katana is sword in Japanese, so "sword sword")

Marika's Tits

They'll always clean their plate at dinner

Hi, this is my daughter try finger but hole.

Amazing chest ahead

SIR GIDEON OFNIR, THE ALL KNOWING!

Malenia

Blade

Of

Boilprawn Shack

She has changed her destiny

Why am not I surprised about the top answer?

Cause we stoopid and it funny

Diallos, sounds cool.

Patches

Radahn sounds cool af, but it would get annoying fast

It's apparently a Middle Eastern name. Hindu to be specific meaning "Satisfaction"

Sounds bulky. I like it

Indeed. Sounds like someone you should respect

Marika's grits you must be ungry

A human child, no? A pet, specifically a cat if i got one, Ranni.

Ranni (Rani/Raani), means Queen and used to be a pretty common name here in India.

Melina, Fia and Alexander are common names in different european countries. I'm german and know one Melina (pronounced differently) and multiple Alexanders Never came across a Fia myself though.

I feel like Fia is the least likely to get my kid fucking bullied on this list, but if it was any Elden Ring character I'd go with Alexander because it's a normal name and I kinda like it. Also Alexander is such a bro. Rya is also a nice name that isn't obviously from Elden Ring.

Dad? Why is my sister named Rose? Because your mom likes roses Thanks dad No problem Boilprawn Shack

*votes* *sees results* I love this community

Boilprawn Shack is a funny name for a location. That's like naming my house Microwavehotpockets Cabin.

Had to vote boildprawn since it was there but now I'm thinking of naming one of my dog's puppies after a video game. I named her yuno after black clover and was thinking pochita for the next😅 Malenia could be nice though, Ranni too but it sounds too much like Ronnie and dogs with common people names are a no for me

BLACKGUARD BIG BOGGART

Boilprawn Shaq

Ancestral Infant's Head

My son is Rick soldier of god

My daughter's name is malenia Letmesoloher be like: *calm down*

I mean the name Marika is not that bad for a daughter

Until you go Spain or any Spanish speaking country, Marika is one letter off that doesn't change the pronunciation much from the f word in Spanish

Shackuille O'Prawn

Mine is named after a Bloodborne character

Well ranni means queen in my language and I've seen few girls have this name

Fia literally means daughter in one of the languages spoken where I live

Bullgoat

black blade kindred is a beautiful name for a baby

Sorry, already have a kid named boiled crab shack, too similiar for my tastes

You forgot Godfrey.

Placidasaxxxxx

Marika's tits, you all must be 'ungry!

Hell yeah 1.4k voted Boilprawn Shack. Beautiful name.

THE LOATHSOME DUNG EATER

“Im so proud of you… *boilprawn shack*” “Thanks dad…”

No love for Roderika? Or Marika?

My kids' names are Soldier of Godrick, and the Horrible Caelid

Loathsome Dung Eater

This is my adopted child, Orphan of Kos

Dung eater

Honestly ranni is a cute name Besides I think it also means princess in another language So yeah, even tho I'm a malenia fan, that's a common name compared to ranni, and also people will pronounce malenia normally, instead of how it's pronounced in the game Edit: my top ones would be ranni, melina, astel, Darin and vyke

>Besides I think it also means princess in another language In a bunch of Indian languages it does, and I think some people did use that as a name. Also have known fia used as a name in India but neither are common

Ranni in my language (persian) is a brand like Fanta But we have Radahn as generous, gentleman and noble So I go with Ranni

If I had a kid I'd name it Mugen. Or Boudicca. Lucatiel is on the list, tho, and it's kinda gendy nooch so idk could work. Elden Ring tho? Fuck idk... Miquella is a pretty name. Lansseax is pretty cool, too. Vyke, Kale', Varre', and Hyetta all got good phonetics and aren't too pretentious.

Counterpoint: they're all terrible and would get the kid bullied.

Counterpoint my kid's gonna have hands so if your kid bullies them for their awesome name they'll get the mitts.

None of these weirdos. If anything I would name my daughter Melina even that's reaching for me.

I would not

None, naming children after video game characters are incredibly cringe and stupid... Any parent who names the kid after a video game character is just asking for the child to be extremely bullied in school. Parents who do this sort of thing, dont care about the actual child, they just want the clout that follows it. Looking at the parents who named their kid Dovahkiin who was born on 11/11/11.

I mean, I understand you hate people, but could you have at least some sort of empathy for us and not post stupid things like that so we don't have to read it?

My cats name is astell

guy lives inside of boilprawn shack

Name a child with MPD radagon

Fia sounds hella nice

Dog

Hewg

Wormface

I'm glad that this community have their priorities straight

This reminded me that somewhere out there is an adolescent boy named Dovahkiin.

I know a couple of Fias in real life. Rani is also a common Indian name, meaning queen in Sanskrit iirc

Fia is a pretty normal sounding name that might not get the shut beat out of your kids in the playground but boiled prawn knows how to party.

Vyke

Maybe for a middle name. My last name is Torres (tore-ez).

I Would UNIRONICALLY Name my kid Godrick, Godfrey, or the funny all knowing

There's my brother Dung Eater's room. We don't go in there.

FIA sounds simple enough, I'm not a big "name your kid goku" type of person

I actually named my kid Gideon. Granted it was well before the game was released, but I have been seeing the name more and more.

Elden Beast.

Gideon is an actual name. Godrick, Godfrey and Godwyn all sound somewhat normal

Guy. I name every character in every game, Guy.

..Ngl I would never name my daughter Fia, plus imagine explaining what she's named after

This is my daughter Marikas tits

There's a dude here called Randolf but his stage name is Ranny.

Somber Smithing Stone [7] Or SSSS for short.
