To be fair, it's not really an awful name. It sounds like a name, it isn't immediately obvious that it's stupid and it's not common. The practice of naming our children from a limited set of names due to our culture can get annoying at times, especially when you end up with many people sharing the same name. More unique naming is a good thing and should be welcomed when it isn't stupid. It's one thing to name your child Dovahkiin or some other string of syllables that sounds like a name, another to name him some random word that is already in common usage.
[QUOTE=johan_sm;28188556]Part 1: Find a female[/QUOTE] I give up
Dovahkiin actually sounds not so bad in Hebrew, if it's a female everyone will call her Dova, which is kind of weird but not something that'd make you think, "are her parents crazy or something?!?!". I bet it's the same for Russian and similar languages.
Puncture parents condoms, drug them when deciding for a name.
Do still births count?

ugly name, stupid idea
What if I name him Bendu Olo.
no holy grail no deal
the reward is that the child will have to grow up to kill a real dragon all the elder scrolls games were just a front to find...THE ONE
At least one person will do this, maybe more.
[QUOTE=RedStar;28188730]the reward is that the child will have to grow up to kill a real dragon all the elder scrolls games were just a front to find...THE ONE[/QUOTE] And the dragon is a metaphor for the collective of all the kids who make fun of him as he grows up. The endgame is a free lifetime visit to the mysterious and dangerous dungeon known as "prison."
I was born on 11/11 goddamnit
I understand being born on that date, but whoever actually names their kid Dovahkiin is just a bad parent.
I read [quote]Bethesda Charges[/quote] and I was like OH NO YOU FUCKING DON'T thought it was gon be some DLC or some shit
Acclaim did this a while ago where if someone named their kid Turok they'd give them a cash prize if I recall correctly.
Oh god it's Turok all over again e: :arghfist::ninja:
[QUOTE=shatteredwindow;28189033]I understand being born on that date, but whoever actually names their kid Dovahkiin is just a bad parent.[/QUOTE] How is this worse than making your child the fifteenth 'John' in their grade, or the 12th 'Julie'? The stupid part is naming your child in honor of a contest, but I see no problem with names that are unusual along similar lines, which I've seen many FPers take offense to before.
Suddenly, nerds everywhere finally get laid because they have the proper motivation.

[QUOTE=JohnnyMo1;28189180]Suddenly, nerds everywhere finally get laid because they have the proper motivation.[/QUOTE] Or they rape a lot of people. Dovakhin is an interesting name though. I could name a kid that and not feel bad.

So, if you have your kid on November 11, 2011 at 11:11, do you win something even better? (New Age weirdos are gonna have a field day with this by the way.)
[QUOTE=Zeddy;28189231]Or they rape a lot of people.[/QUOTE] If they are a rapist, then they can't be a virgin, and therefore not a gamer.

Oh god I really can't wait to see who will complete the quest... Because we all know that at least one person will do it.
Name kid Dovahkiin. Second name Dave. Call him Dave. Problem solved. Sucks if someone does this and it turns out to be a girl.
[QUOTE=Cl0cK;28189737]Oh god I really can't wait to see who will complete the quest... Because we all know that at least one person will do it.[/QUOTE] I'm more interested in the reward. They better have a REAL good reward. like [b]REALLY[/b] good
