Stepping out of the vault is the first step, but a good name can set you apart from other survivors. To choose one, consider:
- Does the name have a classic or a more modern feel to it?
- Does it sound like a person from the pre-war era?
- Does the name reflect a specific role in your party, such as a scout or a medic?
- Does it feel suitable for a male or female character?
- How does it compare to other names of the Fallout universe?
