Hey, qolelis, you missed a Karrass name: Child of Karras ;)

For some reason, the misspelled versions of any of those names bugs me a LOT more than the use of the correctly spelled version. Perhaps any form Garrett is a bit much on a thief-dedicated board, but I'd resent seeing something like ThiefGarett or ThiefGarret on even a totally unrelated board. Now, if it was spelled like that for some other reason (like being a real name), fine; but if you did that because the proper spelling was taken, get a new name!
Blessed be,

More correctly, it looks like he only searched for the misspelling "Karrass" instead of the correct spelling "Karras" (with only one 's').

This makes me think of MMO naming rules. I don't agree with most of the strict rules, but I do like that all of the key names are 'locked' so that in LOTRO, a newb wouldn't be running around as Legolas, etc.
I guess I've just gotten used to it, I don't notice names anymore. In LOTRO I ran across Bilbo Fraggins, Bilfro Flabbins, and all kinds of assortments. For all the weird names that exist in the real world, I guess I've convinced myself its not 'Role-breaking' after all.
