My main, Wolfieone, is from the comic strip The Wotch (http://www.thewotch.com) - I was the basis for the Samantha Wolf character, so I named her after that. One is just because Woflie was taken. I retconned it to say the "One" is "Oh-nay" - and is her family name.

Pinfire,my hunter, is a type of gun. All of her pets are named after rifle and firearms terminology.

SaintJoan, my Paladin, is named after Saint Joan of Arc. I'm French so it was a natural.

Hamartanean, my Warlock, is named after "Hamar" - the greek word for "Falling short of the Mark", literally, sin.

Sadiefalk, my rogue, is named after the character from the 90's James Robinson "Starman" series.

Lildeathy, my DK, is a joke on the fact she's a gnome - i made up a story that the Lich King called her "Little Death" - so when she broke free, she just shortened it as she revered to her more normal gnomish tendencies.

You're a spit-fire redheaded girl who is super nice and super athletic?

Sweet, learning new things about fellow commenters all the time on this post. With some people's usernames, you can't even tell gender (unless they put a disembodied floating head as their avatar).
