What do you name Link?

i named him Raven,because is the name that i've given him in my anime serie that is untill saria named him Link.

I used to always name him my name, Tori, then Kafei, then that was too weird, now I stick to Link.

In LoZ games there is always a set amount of things you must do to finish the game. It would be like me and my friend. We have the same name as eachother but does it make us fulfill eachother as people? No, we have common interests but are no completely alike. Same names are hardly a link if any at all.

the original LoZ was a 'free roam' or sandbox game, where you explored every nook and cranny and could defeat the dungeons totally out of order or even go 'swordless'.

Anyway, I usually name him Dink, or Stink. Sometimes my own name, or sometimes Grimmy. But usually Dink.

Well, when I was a kid on my second or third playthrough of OoT, for a joke I named him a name similar to link except with a wa instead of li (I was a child so I was allowed to be childish!) Now that’s sort of stuck and I call him that for every Zelda game I play

Mainly Nate, 'cuz that's me. A few older games were named Kye, which is the name I always use in Pokemon.

In my first playthrough I always name him "Link" and "Epona", just because those are their names. When I play again, I use my name or something amusing (Batman XD).

I once tried to mane Epona, "Rocinante", like the Don Quixote horse, but the letters weren't enough.

I just call him link ^_^ My own name wouldn't be too suitable with me being female.

usually i name him link and epona epona.

I usually just name him Emma, my name. But I did manage to accidentally hit another letter when I went to save the name one time without realizing it, and then had to go through the whole game as Emmaf.

Normally I name link 'Lance'

Are you a mind reader?
I do the same thing.


I named him Jacklyn when I was little. I regretted it.

A lot of the time I use the name of the main villain in the game. I do not know why, but it just amuses me during the dialogue.

Pothead[;

I keep him as Link.

I always spend 15-20 minutes in the name screen trying to think of something clever I can live with for the whole game. It's the hardest part of the game.

Shmelink.

Every time.

Ialways name him Link because it feels right and it's who he is. Somthimes for file two, (My fooling around file) I name hime really weird stuff like Perygrin, A****aka, Linkybear, Meh,and almond.
