Out of boredom got to thinking. What makes people make the names, characters, job, and nations they do when they first start off in the game?
With me for Sepihroth it was this, all the names I wanted were already taken lol.
So for a joke I tried Sephiroth. Didn't go through (guessing this is cause FFXI/SE doesn't allow players to have past FF game names), so then tried Sepihroth and got it. Then thought for shits and giggles why not make it a Elvaan female? So went through the female Elvaan faces found the one I wanted, picked War to start off it then Sandy.....only reason for Sandy...cause I like tress >.> XD
With my 2nd char she wasn't planed as a 2nd char. I endded up getting that name cause a close friend in game quit the game and said I could make a mule with her old name and also cause she didn't want some asshat to get the name.
Pick hume for her cause I was getting sick of Sephy ( Sepihroth ) and made her the model I wanted in the first place. Again picked War for her job. But this time placed her in Bastok cause had rank 10 on Sandy and wanted to see something new, also cause blue is my favorite colour.
As for the War jobs, like the fact War can skill up almost any weapon in game.
So my unoriginal names come from the names I wanted already being in use.
To this day I get asked why two chars?
I just say one got lvled cause I got sick of the other, and other got made cause tried something outta shits and giggles.
But I enjoy both of my girls to this day
