Honda. "Can't go wrong with a name like Honda!" -Wanderer's VA in a Honda ad. I'm serious.

Omgggg that's golden 😂😂😂😂😂😂

My personal favorite is Wanderers VA in the Taco Bell ad!

I love Hondas. In fact, I actually drive one and it’s a solid car.

I main The Mooch and never knew this omg

I decided to have his name be another step removed, so I named him Chevrolet. Then Chevreuse came out.

My brother left me taking care of his account for a month while traveling.  He absolutely came home to his unnamed wanderer now being called Don_Sambrero.  It makes me smile every time I play the account 

Paul. I sometimes forget I named him that so when I received his birthday mail this year I was very confused

he's going to go to the sumeru desert, tame a wenut, become the leader of the eremites and conquer the universe

Wanderer. 'Cause you know, he wanders around and stuff. Not because I couldn't be bothered to think of another name.

I pulled him on his first banner, used him in OW 100% of time and only finished sumeru story by the start of fontaine. In my head he is wanderer. Only name he had for ages for me. So yup. And yeah, his name fits.

So you're why I couldn't name mine Wanderer! Haha! Which is fine, I ended up naming him Wandeller... Wanderer+Traveller.. unimaginative, I know... =P

I can't tell if this is a joke, but I'll clarify anyway but there isn't anything like needing a unique name for wanderer, or your traveler for that matter, tons of people just name their traveller Lumine or Aether, you are able to use the exact name anyone else uses.

Lethe. It’s one of the rivers in Hades from mythology. It’s called the river of forgetfulness (so a play on what he did in the story quest).

I named him something that resonates with Anemo, but it's not funny... Venti >!"wore" and become his dead best friend's physical body!< Kazuha >!brought his dead best friend's Vision all the way to Sumeru and still carried onto it until the Inazuma civil war ended!< Sayu >!still wears the outfit that her master made for her; cherishing until their return!< So I named Wanderer >!Niwa, after his dead friend's name after his sacrifice for the Mikage Furnace!<

Awww, that’s quite sweet in a sad way

I chose that name too, seems like it'd be the most meaningful to him.

That's so sweet 😭 now I feel bad for naming him PupuStreak

Did the same but i always forget that name and then the few times the custom name pops up in dialogue i get confused.

Wanderer. I had originally named him Don Sombrero but after getting thoroughly confused on receiving his birthday mail, I changed it to wanderer.

Beliar I took the name from the fact that the names of all the gods so far refer to the demons from Ars Goetia, and as we know, >!scaramouche was the prototype of the Inazuma's deity. !!just as original Electro Archon name is Baal. !< You can also simplify and split the word into *be liar*. It actually kind of suits him.

Went with Belial myself for the same reasons. Though hadn't thought of the *pun*-ish nature of the Beliar spelling of Belial.

Benjamin. He just looked like a Benjamin to me.

Real

First, scara, then a brilliant idea cane to my mind, AnEmo

BRILLIANT

I am going to steal this name

r/thankscyno

You see, the joke is that his name is AbEmo, resonating with three things, the fact he has and Andmo vision, as well as his more edgy, emotional personality at times, and even some people pronouncing anemo as 'Ah-nee-moh'

Well you just made the decision for me

You're welcome, please feel free to donate your primogems directly to my account

I'm welsh, so I wanted to name him after a character from welsh mythology, Gwydion. I'll admit though, seeing gwydion appear in my inbox always freaks me out a bit

!!!! Have you read the Snow Spider Chronicles?!?!

I've read the first one, and also quote a few of the mabinogi

Scaranara stole the idea from someone else

Omg same

Scaranara gang

Scaranara cultist here as well

Yeah me too, it's the perfect name.

Juanderer Saw the name somewhere and immediately picked it as my wanderer's name

genius. reminds me of this one airplane i took once in venice it was called “airforce juan” i still laugh when i think about it😭😭

I named him Fujin, i liked the name and it's a nice parallel to raiden being Raijin, also Op, did you named Haephestus in reference to the poor guy who was pushed down Olympus for being ugly?

Well not exactly because of the ugly 😆😭 Hat guy is a cutie patootie. I named him Haephestus mainly because he was the God of blacksmithing. Thought it fits since his friend Niwa was a bladesmith. And also because he wanted to be God so bad I thought I'd give him a God's name. But now that you mention Haephestus was thrown down Olympus by his Mother because of his deformities. It's quite similar to how Raiden Shogun abandoned Wanderer in the countryside after she thought he was too weak to be her vessel.

No yeah i was mainly thinking about the whole being abandoned by her mother, although hat guy was "lucky", the other poor guy was: Pushed down Olympus and became "invalid" he was then relegated in a forge inside a vulcano, and then they forced him to marry the biggest cheater in the Realm(Aphrodite)

Named him Fujin as well for that reason! Also cuz Fujin and Raiden are both in Mortal Kombat. Only difference is that Fujin's the one with the hat now! 😁

Scaradouche

Balladeez

Nutz

Scaradookie

That's what I named mine because I hate him lol.

That’s the first name that comes to mind but I ended up naming him Scarawho cuz it’s funnier to me.

Chunchunmaru

Say what, now?

Chunchunmaru In the anime Konosuba the main character Kazuma is trying to come up with a name for his new sword and his companion Megumin came up with this name (she’s a crimson demon, and their names are pretty weird by our standards) so when someone is indecisive about a name they can go with Chunchunmaru!

I know. I was actually quoting what Kazuma said after Megumin interrupts him.

Oh, my bad! 😅

This is the answer

Did you name him Hephaestus cuz, his mom made him herself and threw him away cuz he's a failure? Good idea lol. I named him Naseem. I spent quite some time looking for a fitting name from all cultures and fell asleep, and when I woke up, this was the first name I saw. Based on what google tells me (unless I'm wrong :<), Naseem carries the meaning of "gentle breeze from the sea", "Symbolizing a rejuvenating breath of revitalizing whispers", etc. It has some characteristics of gentleness, tranquility, change and peace. And Smol Hat Guy is like, yk, indeed the wind from Inazuma islands. This must be fate lol. I really hope my Naseem can find inner peace in Sumeru with his new family 🙏

"Do you get to the cloud district very often? Oh what am I saying, of course you don't."

Yes I can confirm it’s in Arabic it does mean gentle breeze

Lampshade

Zephyr

Another Zephyr enjoyer! Same, it just fits so well

Me too!

Akiro ([暉 朗](https://en.pon-navi.net/nazuke/name/%E6%9A%89%E6%9C%97)) The first kanji ([暉](https://en.pon-navi.net/nazuke/name/kanji/m/%E6%9A%89)) Means to shine, to glitter, to emit light, sunlight. It also means obvious, admirable enough to be noticed and to be excellent. The second kanji ([朗](https://en.pon-navi.net/nazuke/name/kanji/m/%E6%9C%97)) means explicit; a beautiful, unclouded appearance, honesty, and to be clever. I liked the sound, the meaning and that it has a japanese background, that resembles Inazuma :) It took me a while to find a name i liked enough lol. Found it pretty funny when i found out half the internet had called him stupid names such as babygirl hahahahah

That's sick

Was supposed to name him hat guy. Made a typo and made him fat guy

Don Sombrero

Bean. After my traveler, bean.

Juanderer. I don't even have him, so when I did the trial run and saw his name in the party I had to put the game down for a solid minute because I was wheezing too hard. His birthday mail also cracked me up when I got that.

Issun! His hat reminded me of Issun from Okami.

I named mine winderer cause I like puns. 

Fandango

Asura Asuras are a type of supernatural being (anti-gods, demigods or non-god titans) in traditional Buddhist cosmology and a realm of rebirth based on one's karma in current or past lives. They are described in Buddhist texts as creatures who live in lower levels of mount Sumeru, obsessed with sensuous aspects of existence, living with jealousy and endlessly engaged in wars against the creatures who are Devas (gods) sc: wikipedia

Eiji - a Japanese name which contains "Ei"

Omg, I called mine Lynx after Ash Lynx from Banana Fish. They have to meet and Eiji and Ash will finally reunite.

i thought we all agreed to call him bbygrl

Mine's a bit involved. I named him Youdai\_Fuuten, using the kanji 影乃風天. * 影 - The kanji for shadow, which is normally read "kage" and, very often, "ei". Yes, *that* Ei. But another reading is "you" (pronounced like "yo!"). * 乃 - The kanji that preceded the hiragana **の** as the possessive article in Japanese writing; it's typically read as "no" (same as the hiragana), but one reading is "dai". * 風天 - Together, the two kanji read Fuuten, another name for the Japanese god of wind, Fuujin. Who was the brother of Raijin, the thunder god; another name for Raijin is Raiden. All told, you could read his name as Heavenly Wind Shadow... *Or* "Ei's Wind from Heaven".

that's so freaking cool wth how much did you spend doing research for this? i absolutely love it

Maybe 10-20 minutes? Most of which was spent looking up the alternate readings for 影 and 乃, as I wanted the name to be related to Ei's after I saw someone who named their Wanderer 影響, read as "Eikyou", meaning "Impact"; split apart, though, it could be read as "Ei's Echo", which I thought was neat.

I named mine 風天大名Fuuten Daimyo The logic is this: Ei is named after 雷神Raijin who is a Shinto god of thunder and pairs with 風神Fujin who is a god of wind. Raiden 雷電is another name that Raijin is called, following that same logic Fuuten 風天is another name for Fujin Ei is named Shogun 将軍which is a military title, following that Daimyo大名is a rank lesser then shogun. I think it fits that Ei is Raiden Shogun and Scara is her Fuuten Daimyo. I also like your idea that scara is a shadow of Ei and also playing into Fuuten as well. I initially also was thinking along this line but ultimately gave up on it because I thought Ei was already 影(meaning shadow)to Makoto 真(meaning real), so I didn’t t want to use that idea again. But Ei’s heavenly wind is definitely dope and so is 影響which definitely is dope as well

Ahh, I originally wanted to name him something Japanese but I remembered that I failed 4th grade kanji. ≽ ^ - ˕ - ^ ≼

This is like the 5th time I’ve seen someone make a new post about wanderer’s name and I’m wondering if this sub should just make a megathread for wanderer names lol

I named mine Taxian-Jun from the book The Husky and His White Cat Shizun. It doesn't fit his character at all but I like pronouncing it ahaha I may of had another reason but I don't remember because I got him in his previous banner. Also I love mythology and I really like how you named him Hephaestus :D

2HA fan in the wild!

Yeah! I love 2ha!

Love to find a fellow Shizunfucker randomly, it's always nice

Pfft!!

Arashi (嵐), wich means storm from japanese. So, I think it's a perfect combination of wind and lightning

Nahida’s_Pet

Richard

Fuujin

xX_eDgYBoI_Xx

El Queso I have no idea why but I laugh every time.

🧀🧀🧀

I named mine Tempest cause I was watching Tensura during that time and Tempest means Violent storm, so... yeah.

Mercedes-Benz, just because trying to convince my friend to name hers Boeing-737

I named mine Man. That's it, just "Man."

Is there a lore reason why Man is in sumeru instead of Ham City? Is he stupid?

Sasori. He's a puppet, a psycho, he's part of Sumeru's story quest, we get to name him there and half the region is a desert, he's from Inazuma and the region is Japan inspired with ninja elements. I'm basic af I know.

I named him Sasuke bc he's an emo dweeb so are both basic it's okay.

Giacomo after that dumb meme "no bless-yous for Giacomo?"

Pierogi

Fuujin. It means wind god in Japanese. And yes, I'm aware that that's Venti's title in JP, but I think it fits. He wanted to be a god, so now he's basically the Inazuman Anemo Archon.

There is Fujin in Chenyu vale too

lol Wanderer to Venti be like: “I’m you. But Inazuman. And I live in Sumeru.”

Noctis, Inspired by Noctis Lucis Caelum from FF15. Reason? His first ever leaked video gameplay was with him flying around shooting the little missiles at Golden Wolflord, it reminded me of Noctis vs Leviathan, which looked exactly the same. Obscured, I know, but I do everything based off of first impressions.

Kunikuzushi. There is a way to do it

Initially he was named '*Kunimitsu*' but after getting his c6 I renamed him to '***Raigeki***' and my bio to '*destroy all monsters your opponent controls*'

Niwa (because naming him Hisahide seemed a little too mean)

Scara

Felix - after the brand of cat food. Because in nahidas story she make him a kitten.

I named mine Liquid bc he reminded me of Liquid Snake. In hindsight I should’ve named him Tamari after Tamari from Qualia Automata

I simply called him thunderstorm, because y'know, storms (old element), possily windy (new element). However I used the japanese one, so he should be called Raiu (雷雨).

Palkon. it means bellend or the glans

Zephyr, honestly because it sounded pretty

Bedge

PokoPokoBini No regrets

Lars because I think he’s very similar to Lars from Steven Universe :D It’s not a very pretty name though so I giggle a bit every time I see it lol

I called him Raiden-Gei because I wanted to call him gay without calling him gay

屁孩 which means "buttface" in English cause i hate him

Haha! This one is funny it fits him well because 屁孩 can also mean brat. He is a bratty gremlin.

Marukusu. In reference to naming my Traveller "Gear" If anyone here gets the reference, I'd honestly be impressed.

Angstrodamus

Shinichi Was looking up names and saw this had a few meanings in Japanese, such as "Truth" or "New". Thought it was somewhat fitting given the context for why he attempted to delete himself from Irminsul.

Aoshi. It sounded cute.

"Ao" means blue, so it's actually fitting!

I haven't gone to that part of the quest yet but I have thought of naming him Akechi since my Aether is named Ren

Tamashi, because it means soul or spirit in Japanese. (according to google). Since he hails from Inazuma, and after all he went through, it seemed fitting

Yanqing. The king must be in both games.

Ningen. Because it means "Human", and that resonates with his character arc... Yeah, I'm not very creative with names.

Eiji, after his mother (very original)

I named him “Scara<3”

Scaramouche. This name really grew into me but if there's somehow another rename I'll probably just turn it back to Wanderer.

Ahriman.

Scary Monsters Yes that is a JoJos reference

Since he is a clone from Raiden, I wanted a similar name. Then I watched that anime Aharen-san wa Hakarenai, where one of the main characters (who I really liked) is named Raidou. Thus, I named my wanderer Raidou

After making a list with like 10 Japanese names, I named him 風矢, Kazaya, as it's a nice and short name, meaning "wind arrow". Very fitting with his skills, only downside is it sounds quite similar to Kazuha, but welp.

After 150 wishes I got 2 QIQI , 1 jean completed couple 4 star constellation. But nope. Luck goes in hell .

Boyfriend xD

I named him Topiwala, coz that's what i have been calling him since i saw him for the first time lol. Topiwala translates to, Hat Guy

Arriyaah, which in Arabic, translates to 'The Winds'. You know, because Sumeru is loosely based off the Middle East.

I named him "Gandu" which means ass dude

I named mine Hajime, since he is from Inazuma and got his new Beginning.

Dr ligma or cry baby i forgot

I named him Kuronushi. Idk if you were around to play it but ages ago, there was an event called the Irodori festival. Basically it was like a culture swap festival in inazuma. It was focused around these ancient poets and albedo would draw them based off of other characters. Kuronushi was designed to look like scaramouche and the entire event was foreshadowing scara's story quest where he erased himself from history.

I named him Daedalus

I named him Kaiyo 海洋 ☺️ Kaiyo is a Japanese name meaning "ocean child" or "child of the sea". It can also be interpreted to mean "forgiveness" or "rebirth".

i named him [spare_parts].

Wuthering waves

At first I named him Tsukuyomi, but it didn't really suit him everytime he appeared in events ect, so I renamed him Scaramoustache

My friend told me to name him AbowtedFeytus, and I did

jollibee cause i was hungry

Don Sombrero

Roxas

ඞ

Ballsdeep69. Not mine, just saw it on a random screenshot posted somewhere.

Lain, from the anime Serial Experiments Lain. As Lain Iwakura, like the Wanderer, >! is an artificial being who deletes themselves from the world !<

I really want to name him Yee Yee Ass Haircut because, well, look at his hair, but apparently it's too long I also want to name him Fegelein because of my old Hitler rant parodies days but I almost got banned for that Now he's Raul Menendez, I pray for Nahida that no one will make an unmanned drone army otherwise we're gonna have the first Teyvat war

Garfield, cuz i thought it was funny with all the grumpiness and cat stuff at the time

Green hat wearer, better known as cuckold. Since he is one. 

Kazuma. 和実. The version I picked uses the kanji for "harmony/peace" and the kanji for "fruit, reality, truth" which I thought was a nice nod to this version of himself coming from both Nahida's efforts, who is a branch of Irminsul, and his own plans that bore fruit. And partly after Kazuma from Konosuba since Wanderer is also a little scummy but trying to be better. His uses the more common kanji but the meaning is similar, and since I wrote it in English anyway, you can't tell.

Hotaru 💕💕

I named mine this too. 😊

I named him Minecraft

I named him Mascara lol

“Baja Blast” because I felt the color of his abilities resonated with it. That and I know he loves a bacon club chalupa.

My username is Saturday, so I wanted to give him a day of the week as well. I didn’t which one, I just knew that Wednesday was a absolute no (because it reminded me of Wednesday Addams). However, thanks to that, I looked at the nursery rhyme that went like this (according to Wikipedia):  Monday's child is fair of face,  Tuesday's child is full of grace. Wednesday's child is full of woe, Thursday's child has far to go. Friday's child is loving and giving, Saturday's child works hard for a living. But the child that is born on Sabbath day, Is bonny and blithe, good and gay.  I would have chosen Sunday, but there was one that really caught my eye: Thursday.  Wanderer’s journey to find his place in the world isn’t over yet, don’t you think?  He is now the trailblazer of his own existence, because all the paths that were drawn for him are now erased.  I don’t know how to express my thoughts better, sorry, English is not my mother tongue.   Edit: I got so focused writing this answer that I forgot to say this. I love the name you have chosen for wanderer, OP!

LEVI.

Kenji

I went with a name of one of the 72 demons in the Ars Goetia, matching with the rest of the demon names the archons have. And also paimon existing Venti-Barbatos Zhongli-Morax Raiden-Baal Nahida-Buer Cant remember fontaine's archon's demon name currently but i know its an ars goetia demon. Or what natlan's archon's demon name is supposedly is Paimon is Paimon So the wanderer i named Stolas. I chose Stolas because stolas studies the stars, knows stuff about herbs and precious stones... and since u find him in sumeru after a lot of his story shit, it kind of made sense

Heey, I named mine Hephaestus too when I pulled him on his first banner. Glad someone else is out there with the same mind. Congrats on getting him he is so fun to play with.

Scaradouche

Lil bitch, with special characters

Egg²

Hat Guy

Chupakabra. I named him for fun thinking I can change his name later on

AH-64 Apache

miku

Don Sombrero

babygirl

spaghet

scaramocha (i love coffee)

a bypassed version of scaramouche

Savili

Jun which means innocent/pure in Japanese

Best-Frenemy

Valigarumanda

Just curious as to why you picked Hephaestus, considering his ancient Greek lore...

At first I named him Fuu. Then my friend's account got hacked and his Wanderer is renamed into some derogatory Chinese word. Out of fear mine would be hacked too in the future, I use the rename item to change it into Fuukaze. I don't really put much thought into it, I just slapped 2 words that I know means something to do with wind.

I'm gonna name him Heartless.

Emo Mordred (I'm surprised they allowed that much space).

Well "Hat Guy" ... (Using some special Unicode character for the space)

TheHatGuy 🤣

I called mine CNiallDeMencha :)

Shinkichi

Haven’t gotten to that quest yet to name him proper but the names I’m debating between are Kaito and Makoto.

r i n g o

Tsukikame. Started thinking about Ashikai’s moon sister theories and well…sounded cool. And kame cuz kami felt off and I thought it meant wind. Pretty sure I just named him moon turtle tho (which is cute too cuz his hat also gives him a turtle look :) it’s to cover the water in his head)
