It's weirdly common in japanese games, but not in english ones, despite being biblical.
Like in ffxiv for some reason the character with my name is a woman, I guess they sometimes don't understand the origin of these names.
Basically never because while it's a common name, it's an off spelling that I always need to correct people on. Ironically, since my mother complained about her mother doing the same to her and then went on to name me and one of my sisters after her cousin with my name who drowned while they were visiting family in England when she was a kid.
my name isn't even rare or uncommon, but the only game character I know of with my name is from river city ransom, and even then that's just the localized version
It's pretty commonly used IRL, maybe more so than in video games. I have the same name as Master Chief and Big Boss. "Yahweh is gracious."
Big Boss's real name is Jack.
Jack is a nickname for John.
Jack of all trades or Johnny on the spot, respectively.
It used to be.
Yeah, like back in the 1960s.
His name is John, Raiden is Jack.
I only know of three vidya characters with my name. One of them is black.
I've only seen it in a GBA Fire Emblem
My name only shows up in cyberpunk-type games.
I only know of two. One's an unironic movie game and the other is a default name retcon.
I don't think I've ever seen my name in a video game before.

It's always used for butlers

I believe that japan just picks up random names and assign them without any thought

My name is Mario, unfortunately there's no video game characters named that.
>Mario if he anon
My name pretty common but its not cool enough for game characters.
I know of one and one of the female names is Atkins so it makes me think of Subway Jared and his diet.

The dude in Pokemon Stadium is the only character named Wes I can think of.
i hate my name. too biblical. contraction sounds childish and full sounds too formal.
Only ever seen my name in Battlefield 1942 on a bot
It's a common name among historical people
Wikipedia doesn't have a "In Popular Culture" section for my name 🙁
My name is apparently a big deal in a certain historically accurate medieval game that came out a few years ago
Henry?
Yes
Also half an A press is a totally legitimate way to describe a highly specific use of the A button that is indeed not a full press in the level
Hope that's best boy Henry
>only single chance at life
>mom and dad call me virgil
Its not fair
but that's a cool name. have people really given you shit for it? it's not like your name is eugene or archibald or something
I'm in almost every bible game, ever
Noah or Paul?
