me name


Recommended Posts

Parker is a perfectly sound period surname. Now you just need a good period first name like Henry, Samuel, John, etc. Your name might already be appropriate. If you're looking for a nickname you might wait for it to happen on its own. You might earn one along the way that would be better than anything I might come up with off the cuff.

Aye, I'll second what Will just said. Best to have a decent name as a pirate. All the best pirates had a realistic name.

"Parker" is actually an excellent name. Short, good solid "ar" sound at the beginning. Would carry well, shouted across a field of battle. And as William said, a nickname will likely find you, whether you want it to or not.

Parker's a fine name indeed. My own cabin boy is named that - but, of course, he's better known in the pirate world as Wrong Way.

Named him Parker all because of the musical Oklahoma.

Or me. My name sounds like a pun, haha. I agree with Chrispy - think hard about it.

But yeah, Parker's a perfectly decent name! Is that your given name or your surname? Either way, if you keep it, I'd say it's best to keep it as a surname.

Captain Jack McCool, landlocked pirate extraordinaire, Captain of the dreaded prairie schooner Ill Repute, etc. etc.

whatta think of thy name PLUNDERING PYLOS PARKER

;)

Am I a bad person because the first nickname I thought of for Pylos was Pile O'S#&% ?

You might want to pick a different first name.

Hope that wasn't too harsh.

The thing is, you can create any name you want. But it may not always stick. People get names for odd reasons. For instance, Drop Dead was Iron Mariea, then Drop Dead Gorgeous, shortened to Drop Dead, because it's funnier when someone asks her her name. It just happened one day. So, you can spend a lot of time thinking up a cool character name, but everyone may end up calling you something entirely different. I gave up even trying to use mine anymore. It just never stuck.

As for myself I was just "swab" with my friends until they decided the rank was a little to belittleing and I needed the rank of Captain, however owning too many boats I couldn't be simply Captain thus Commodore Swab was born but Im still just swab with friends
