Shagratha is my warlock. Shagrath is the stage name of the lead singer of the black metal band Dimmu Borgir that I like, so I thought I'd add an "a" to the end to make it feminine. The singer got the idea from an orc demon in LotR by the name of Shagrat. Ha, unfortunately, my warlock is a belf, would have been more fitting to make an orc warlock, I suppose.
Well if you want to be technical, the LotR orcs were once-upon-a-time descended from elves who got Really Messed Up. So, elf becomes orc becomes stage name becomes elf...full circle!
Well Chulos was my very first character. Ever. He was an undead warlock... and you may guess as to why his name's Chulos. It's a miss match of two languages. Chu meaning kiss and Los meaning the. The Kiss. which is somewhat redundant... as he couldn't kiss anyone. But the way it's said is Chew Loss. Yet another hidden meaning. I love having words that mean more than one thing depending upon how it's used, and that's how he got named. Since then he's gone into my "out of use" category.. but I'll never forget the days when Soul Drain was only a problem due to the volume of shards I'd create (using lvl 1) and the 14% total mana I'd gain from it. (Stupid blizzard rewiring the genetics of player abilities, had to redefine how I played every class -.-)
Fyrite's my DK, and he got that name because I play Maplestory (yes, I know -.-) when either one of two conditions are met. 1, server's down. 2, subscription expired. Fyrite's my mage in Maple. He's a cool little power house, so that was the first name that popped into my head. Fyrite's also a type of mineral.. >.>
Ice/Nyght Fyre, my druids. Ice is pure white, nyght is pure black. Unfotunately I had to recreate Nyght since moving to Ness, but what's a little lvling when my heals will see you through anything? Nyght Fyre is a character, and a substance, within the stories I'm writing.
Manacite. He's a mage. He's a Belf. When I first thought of it, mana tap was still a skill, and it had the ability to drain mana and transfer it to the caster. Originally it was Paracyte, then Maracyte. Then eventually Manacite. My boy is a Mana Paracite, and he's good at his job <3
Liyr. Belfie, Priest. Liyr is, was, and always will be, my number one. Because of him (and my stubborness) I found out my true roll. Healing. There is nothing I love more than healing, and it's all thanks to him. Liyr (pronouned Lee Ur, [swallow the y]) was the start of my uhmm... how should I explain it? He... started my little personality disorder. Nowadays, if my characters have a big enough personality, it comes to the fore. I play as THAT character, and he started it by being just what he is.
Koth, troll hunter. I was fiddling around with things, trying to get a good troll name. I was randomising, hitting the button several times, untill "Roth" popped up. I said it aloud a few times and went "YES!" hit accept.. and ... "That name is currently in use" ... ARGH!! So I made it a K. He's still my good little troll though, he's suffered so many resets I've lost count -.-
Corisynth is my draenei priestess. Always wanted one. You've got a racial heal. A RACIAL HEAL FFS! so when everyone's got their backs against the wall, she pulls through even at 0 mana. And since racials don't reset your mana regen CD, you can cast it without losing your mana regen. She's awesome at what she does, and what she does is heal.
Roake (Row/oak) a Dwarf Hunter. I wanted Rowanoke, but that was taken, so I shortened it. He's a nasty little gadget using, treasure finding hunter. His snowleopard distracts things as he DoT's the target. If things start getting hectic, he uses a bomb to stun them.
Liahna, priestess/magelet/warrioress/rogue/huntress/paladin. She's been everything a Human or Belfie can be. Her name, is what I want to name my daughter... when I have her <3 (Lee. Ah. Na)
And those are the only ones worth mentioning... even though I've hit the character limit on my account >.>

That's awesome! I'd imagine you could make them look pretty similar. If only you had the cross gun.
I really like the names that have meaning in other languages. I wasn't that creative when I came up with my names.
Faolette (Night Elf Hunter)- I wanted a wild but feminine name. I thought of foal, but I couldn't make that sound right, Switched the letters and added an "ette" (she's girly and kinda cute, too) and BAM! Name.
Rootrot (Night Elf Death Knight)- Night Elves are highly into nature, so I wanted something to referenced that, but sound like death. Decay, plants- does it get any better than that? I think it has a great rhythm, too.
Eckehart (Blood Elf Paladin)- I don't play this one much anymore. But, they look Germanic so I gave him a German name. It means brave and strong, fitting for a Paladin. It was a name I even considered for myself.
