Do You Use Your Name or Link's?

[yotam]

Usually I peak my name (Yotam, for all who didn't know), but sometimes like in OoT and I think OoA I use the name Link.

 

[ComposerBrother]

I always use the name "Link" for every first try at a Zelda Game.
And I just use my real names for the 100% quests. Though, I have only finished Minish Cap 100% because of how small the overworld is.

 

[bigflyingpotato]

Since my name is Courtney, I've only named him that once. Otherwise I almost always name him Link. But sometimes I've named him Zelda, and one time PO-TA-TO.

 

[Ice6661]

i generally switch sometimes i'll use link sometimes i'll use my name
once me and my friend decided to call him ice (hint the username)
that was when i was like 9 or 10 and we thought it was so cool

 

[Escohobita]

Most of the time I just go with Link. I have to admit that I have used a fair share of "naughty" words for his name. Lulz did ensue whenever that happened.

 

[KickinBird]

I always use "Link" in my first playthrough of a game, and then usually use my name on other files (like when I'm doing 3 Heart Challenges or whatever) just to differentiate between the original and other files.

 

[figthersword]

What if the name link doesn't exist what will be your characters name?

 

[knowlee]

Well, I tend to use either my name or my username, "Knowlee", "Knowls", or "Know"; most of the time though I use "Knowlee". As for using Link's name, I do use it, but it's very rare. The last time I think I used that name was probably on TP which was after I beat the game a couple of times and got bored of using the same name.

 

[Valexi]

I always use Link. Having a female name, it would be quite awkward to use my name. =P
However, when I was a kid my mom loved playing Zelda, so she made her own file on OoT. Instead of Link she put in "MOMMY."

I laughed whatever I saw her play.
Needless to say, the end of the game was quite hilarious.
"CURSE YOU...ZELDA!
CURSE YOU...SAGES!!
CAUSE YOU...MOMMY!"

Hahahaha Dang.
Makes me laugh.

I've always used J Oh as a name for games, (high scores are always 3 letters:p) I'm just use to it now.

 

[Dr3W21]

I've actually done this a lot, but I haven't noticed it until now. Usually, on my first time through the game, I name myself Dr3W. But on my second run through, I usually name myself Link. Weird, huh?

 

[Majora's Cat]

I use neither - my name is always X! Or X2... or X3.

 

[Mikau94]

Link, it is the right name and my name sometimes doesn't fit

 

[Mamfi1908]

Recently I've used Link, but in the past I used my own name, and others just for fun.
But I do have some fun with names, like in PH I started a new game just so I could call myself Linebeck, cuz it's fun when he says it's a wierd name...

This made my night.

I used to name him Link almost all the time, although I've also used the name Din. I kept getting confused when they talked about the goddesses though and started over as Link lol.
Now, I almost always use the name Jimmy, because a) that's an awesome name and b) I'm obsessed with Green Day (no negative comments please ) and in American Idiot, there's a character called St. Jimmy.
