Well, I originally voted as undecided, but then I came up with an interesting character named Manfred/Alfred Quillarts (haven't decided on whether to go with Manfried or Alfred) who happens to be a male highland hyur. Since my old characters were all thaumaturges, I decided to go with a scholarly background and choose the surname/title accordingly. It took quite a bit of time to arrive at Quillarts, as I was first going with Blackfeather, Whitefeather, or featherlight based on his scholarly tool, the quill. Personally, Manfred Blackfeather sounds pretty cool (A quill heavily saturated with ink = Blackfeather). I guess I could also go with Blackquill... and now my brain is running through names again.
Edit: I'm finding that the more succinct names are holding greater appeal to me, so I'm just going to stick with Ranolf Weise. If I name my character something crazy, I've got the feeling I'll start regretting it later down the road.
