    I voted Archlight but honestly I would go with neither. I don't like names that are made of two words. One suggestion I have is taking a name from a show/book you liked, or a historical figure that you like or fits your toon. Try to choose one that is unknown so to most people it will look like a good name.

    This guy has the idea. My first Paladin was named Nicephorus which was a latinized version of the Byzantine Emperor Nikephoros Phokas known as "The Pale Death of the Saracens".

    Saintsinner is from Clive Barker one of my favorite writers.

    Radiant Heart is from Baldurs gate PC game. It was a Paladin Order you joined.

    I try and go with Warcraft themed names. Practically every Warcraft name has two words.

    Lightbringer
    Deathbringer
    Deathwhisper
    Nightbane
    Netherspite

    The list is endless. So, I go with Warcraft themed names. The Paladin name I use in other games I cant use here because we dont have last names. That really cuts down on a lot of creativity and choice. I dont want to be Xbillxx or Holyxlolx or babypallyoxox. Sorry.

    My current characters are

    Hellfury DK
    Dawnfury Pally
    Stormcleave Shaman
    Blackheart Hunter

    Sadly, the reason for the server xfer is Im going from a low pop realm (was medium before the mass exodus due to lack of content for a year) to a high pop realm. The first 40 names I tried weren't available. So, what you're looking at are like choices 40+. None of them strike me as good names tbh but I dont have many options at this point.
