What do you usually call yourself in Zelda games?

I usually call myself Link, just to keep with the story better. Otherwise, I Skymer, my call tag.

My real first name, to distinguish my save file from my sister's.

First go through I call my self Jasun (a play on an old nickname that makes no sense. Second run through I call myself Link. And third run through I call myself Flapjack. Any more after that and I pretty much just slam my hand on the remote repeatedly.

Default. Link. It makes the most sense.

I don't really care. I just use Link if its there or anything else like my name or something random. But i rather leave it Link.

Link. It just seems to fit. There has been a couple of times when I've named myself by my real name. My real name is Tyler. And there was once when I used ShockT, but that doesn't fit for a Zelda game. But in case you're wondering where I got that nickname, I got it from my oldest brother (I have 2 brothers). He was freestyle rapping for some reason, cause he just likes to be funny I guess, and he called me ShockT. So I stuck with it. Now you know that the "T" stands for Tyler. You can call me Tyler if you want.
But back on topic.... My older brother (not the oldest) doesn't usually use Link though. He started WW about 4 days ago, and I watched him put in "Gumby". I shook my head in dissapointment but with a smile, and I just thought to myself "What's wrong with you?" That was funny.

Link, for the most part.

Sometimes if I'm bored, I'll name myself after a random food I'm craving at the time. I've done this more than once. Playing Ocarina of Time through with the name "Omelet" proved to be quite amusing after awhile.

Though perhaps I'm just easily entertained.

This. Sometimes I'll do my real name, but usually only on a new file when I'm returning to a game I haven't played in a year or more. Also, another exception was when I used 'Capt Jack' in The Wind Waker so sailors and pirates would say things like "Ahoy, Capt Jack!"

I've used Yrael a few times.

I always use Link... Well, the first time I played Zelda, I used "aaaaaa" as the name (thought it was only a file name, not the characters name, and the game was rented, so I just didn't care to put my name in a file that would probrably be deleted by the next person to rent it)... It was pretty funny to see Saria greeting aaaaaa...

He's short and he's green. Naturally, I call him Yoda.

Link for first play through.

♥♥♥♥er for the 2nd.

Link for the rest.

Watties, Link hates you now. You're not too good at making friends, are you?

I just started a new Majora's Mask file.
The name: Sparta.

I'm so original and cool.

My very first play-through of Ocarina, i called myself "James". Now, these days i always call myself "Link" in all Zelda titles.

I always call myself Link.

Mainly because I can't think of any other guy names, so I just keep his name.

It also just looks weird to me if I name him anything other than Link...

Hey hey! That's almost like Sparty! Did you know my real life nickname is Spartacus?



I suppose I don't mention that often. Anyway, I like your style!

A lot of the times I actually use the main boss's name just so people refer to me as Ganon or something. It makes me laugh.

I put my first name as my main file.. If I make another one I call it "Link" and If I make a third one without erasing the second one I call it "Lynk".
