Now, many character out there are adding last names in their signatures...some are simply passed down to those in the bloodline, but to those who came up with a last name for their character, why? and how did you choose it?
Nemesis has only ever had 2 'last names'....Gyllenstierna, from Heimdags line, and Mahorela, from her husband. However, I dont really use them. I used to use af Gyllenstierna in signatures, but then just stopped, and I on occassion will use Mahorela to please the characters husband. I cant remember what Mahorela means, and where it comes from, but af Gyllenstierna I believe is Norse...something about a house of the golden star...maybe...has been a long time, and Heimdag has narcolepsy, so i dont know when i'll be able to ask again...lol
i'm quite content to not bother with last names. Nemesis is just Nemesis....like Madonna...or 'just jack'(wonders who will catch that reference)

I almost always use a last name, and it's pretty much always the last name of his bloodline's Matriarch/Patriarch, on the only occasion he was a master vamp, I used his mortal last name, and I din come up with that one, I just picked it from a list of French sounding last names a friend made for me, I wish I could think of a name that fit well between Driretlanish/Dri and Ashenvale though

Hmm Toshiya Sengoku...it was just a name that caught my eye. But I like to always use a last name if I can.

I needed an explanation on why my char would be called Gittelbug since it's rather random. So i just put -men on the end of Gittel. Not very creative i know but it works for the name she goes by.

Elektra used to be just Elektra. Then Poo (Sartori) sired her and she was allowed to use his last name.
I hardly ever sign her name as Elektra D'dary, it's just not a habit of mine. I don't know what 'D'dary' means... Sepp asked once, but I hadn't had the chance to find out.

Aneres only uses her last name. Again it was created when she was and the way I came up with just as "creative" as her first name lol.
Again, Sailor Moon.
Moonieon - You got Moon, then got Moonie which what fans of Sailor Moon are called at times. Then you got On. Moonieon, to me sounded like some far forgotten kingdom somewhere. So that ended up as her last name and her planet's name.
Sometimes she will use Jade-Moonieon, Jade being her husbands last name but they never officially change her last name when she gets married to them.

My story is completely boring. I needed an Irish last name since that is her background lineage. I first searched the web for last names and then decided on a bottle of booze for her last name. LOL.

Shuukakshamaru-BiancoLuce - Means Reaper White Light Man LOL BiancoLuce is from WhiteLighter which Chiru kept because that was and is her father still even if he's not around anymore. Otherwise the Shuukakshamaru is in the other thread about names lol

Reese does not have a last name. I kinda never really thought about it. He did at a few occasions talked about it with a few people but he never really took one.

Avion is the last name of my husband's character and it caught my eye plus its close to the name of the lost kingdom of Avalon, the resting, if im writing a story though i tend to use Selene. I always use the last names for my character.
