Greetings warriors of House Marik!

I am -slowly- writing a story of my character, Matt B. AKA CyclonerM. He started his career as a cadet of a prestigious MechWarrior academy in the Free Worlds League. I am writing the 4th capter, and i need a name for a secondary character. Since i am trying to use as much things from RL as i can (like the rough time of joining Clan Wolf or the 'Mechs i mostly pilot..) i thought: why not asking you , the FWL players (and hopefully readers of my story!) to come up with a name and promote my story as well? :D

Since it does not take a genius to come up with "John", "Karl" or "Bob", make a post below and i will choose one of your names -right, your name- for this character! :D

Of course a name that sounds realistic would be better than "SnakeKiller241"..

This character is an instructor of the Allison MechWarrior Institute.
There will be more secondary characters, so more chances to be featured in my story!

Thank you for these 2 minutes of your life :P

Here there is the link ..

..Trying cannot hurt, quineg?

Suggestion for a name? Why not breaking the "American-centered" vision of BT world and use an Urdu or Hispanic name for the character?

I believe my name is what your looking for. I was created for greatness! Let us look at the positves, Cloud Cobra blood name, the mystery of being in the sphere pre invasion, rugged good looks, plasma scar on my BACK. This I bid. ;)

I would love to! It would make sense for a FWL character. Do you have any suggestion? Possibly a full name.

Sounds right! I think that the original warrior could have had some descendants in the Inner Sphere..

Anyone else dares to compete with "Dez Telinov"? B)

FWL, what a diversity of cultures to choose from. At least for names and backgrounds.

Given the mariks commonwealths largely czech native population, how about Stanislav Kominsky (if you chose shorten it to Stan)? or for a regulan native Vishal Dhital

Sounds quite right! I would have liked to use the name of a player (PR reasons! :P ) but i admit than Stan sounds perfect.

I will need a name for another instructor, he will be part of Wolf's Dragoons, but, if you will forgive me, Odanan, it is an english name you may well guess.. :ph34r:

Btw, i want to publish the new chapter asap and "Stan Kominsky" and "Dez Telinov" are two valid choices. I could use both somehow..

EDIT: Chapter 4 is out! http://mwomercs.com/...13#entry3951013

Try Ambrose for a greek inspired english name with an old school feel.

Also I find Koreans to be non existent in the lore which is a shame. Let some have a home here?

Try:
Male Pak Hyong Son (hyong son Pak or Han Park if westernized)
Female Seo Euon Bee (Euon Bee Seo or Yonbi Seo if westernized)

PS given the economic power of South Korea in the 21st century I really feel they should probably have some more deserved rep in the 31 st given done of the other smaller cultures that made it.
