    I, of course, made a Jack Shepard second time around. He's my inflitrator, and the first guy I'll be importing in. As far as my female Shepard went, I named the first one I created Jules, which I did before I realized that I had made another Lost character, so I guess that's the my official female.

    Well I had 2 characters one good and one rogue or whatever they called it. My good was a generic Travis while my rogue character was named Dick because well thats pretty much what the rogue option made you into.

    Barney. I made my shepard, but he never looked as detailed as the default one. Kinda like a burn victim. Can't believe I just typed that.

    I plan to continue the adventures of my female protagonist, Commander Strawberry Shepard.  I like the name "Strawberry" because it's sexy and sweet at the same time.  It's also a bit silly.  I look forward to the day in gaming when whatever name we choose will actually be spoken by the in-game characters.

    I don't understand why Bioware keeps this stupid fucking mechanic. We don't care about names. What we really care about is that when someone is referencing my character, that they can actually say my fucking name. Dammit. That shit pisses me off. In Mass Effect it was never that bad, because they could say "Commander Shepard," but in Dragon Age, it was completely fucked. "Who, him?" says a member of my party, while we are in a crowd of 25 people.
     
    But I guess I'd name him John, or something simple.

    I think I named him Nathan Shepard. And it wasn't in anyway named after Uncharted's protagonist.

    Heh, yeah, I still want to create two more characters: one Widmore/Ben renegade and a Claire/Penny paragon. Want to make those mostly so I have a romance-free character for both male and female, and so I can try a vanguard.

    I simply named my Paragon and Renegade after my first and middle name respectively. Makes it a little more personal that way.

    My Shepards are called Sid after my kittycat and Cookie Monster (fuck yea, muppet lore). They are all female. It can go both ways...shut up.
    The male Shepard is called Alistair due to it being an awesome name.

    Jane Shepard--standard female name. The name means nothing to the fiction itself, aside from being the name associated with the save file. Also, a lady. Because Femshep rocks. And Garrus rocks... my socks...

    I named him Commander

    does his space-license read Commander Commander Shepard, or is everyone in the galaxy referring to him by his full name by some vast, unspoken conspiracy? It might explain why he's such a jerk.

    The Shepard. He's a living gritty reboot.  
     
    If I could edit his full name, it'd be Mr. Woofles (what I name every game dog) or Nipples Mahoney.

    I've had various names over the years. Serious ones and others... not so seroius.

    a) Rambo Shepard

    b) Salvador Shepard

    c) and then I have a female one that's either called Astrud or Irulan, for the love of me I can't remember.

    These three I've finished the game with, and I have another one which I'm playing through the game right now that's called Assface.
