Zixax: 9/10 > It sounds cool, but after saying it out loud a couple of times you start to stumble over it a bit. I (think) it is lore-based, so kudo’s for that!

And although Minigrump didn’t rate anyone, gues I will;
Minigrump/Techno Mini: 6/10 > Funny name, however not a ‘real’ name. The play on ‘mini’ and Asura always kinda ticks me off as uncreative :P


I posted my Asura name earlier, but didn’t get rated… So I’m going to post it here again:

^ Lore-wise it sounds more like a charr name than an asura, but fitting for an engineer

I have a couple of asura.

Josca – My female engineer, it’s actually a play on my dad’s name. He’s a big DIY guy and generally a genius mechanic/engineer. I grew up with our living room full of cogwheels, electrical wiring and various motorcycle parts from wheels and suspensions to entire engine blocks. I love my dad, and I love my engineer!

Grexxa – My female necromancer, from the latin noun grex, meaning flock. I felt it fit with the concept of minions, even if I rarely use them.

Epigrapher Evvi – My second elementalist (after my main, a human). I wanted a glyph based build or possibly an s/d burst build with air magic and epigraphy is the study of inscriptions.

Gadgeteer Glixx – My second engineer. Josca is a pistol/pistol or pistol/shield all things condition engineer, but I wanted another engineer for a static discharge or power build. I’m pretty sure I saw a Glixx earlier somewhere in this thread too, so I know I’m not the only one. (I really would’ve liked Engineer Xapp, an asura NPC from GW1, but someone took that name already haha)

I like these names, they sound very Asuran. Although, “pleb” was once used around here as an insult so the first name sounds a bit off to me personally.

Necrologist Wikk

“Necrologist” is pronounced similarly to “Biologist”. I don’t usually use name prefixes but I thought it was quite fitting for an Asuran; and different to my other character names.

It’s certainly neither lore-friendly nor is it terribly engaging (no real possibility of an identity; exceptionally descriptive). HOWEVER, it reminds me of GW1 days when people could just make PvP characters and name them whatever they wanted because “I want to run 7 interrupts on my bar NOW and I don’t want to invest in a PvE character to do so!” Mind Kitten feels like a name in that vein and so for that I won’t fault you. Also, you chose my favorite face.

Lil Oni Kage – 7/10 Oni Kage is simple, however lacks a double letter combo of sorts and isn’t “rough” enough in sound that is typical of Asuras.

As names yours are nice, however


My female Asura guardian’s name:

Qaali

(pronounced kah-lee) variations of Kaali were taken, so I just went with a letter close to “k” in the IPA (international phonetic alphabet). Name has both feminine Asura vowels (“a” and “i”), yet still kept a “hard” sounding consonant to remain Asura-like Also stuck with two-syllables as well with being one-worded, which was hard to find, given that a lot of combos have been taken already >.<
