I can never think of a good name for a video game. It is hard for me to think of something that isn't the normal adjective-somethingadventurerelated game title.

In a disparate attempt to avoid the above scenario, I have been trying the same thing only in Latin, so nobody knows that I am being pathetic in my name making. =.='

Any thoughts, tips, or suggestions on the process of naming a game?

Any thoughts on a name for a fantasy RPG game based around freedom and community interaction?
no no no, no latin

just name the game after what the game's about

are you creating an immersive world based in the Warcraft universe? call it World of Warcraft

are you creating a game in which several rival guilds wage long, endless wars against each other? call it Guild Wars

are you creating a game based on a popular anime and have no idea how to create an original name because the game's content is uninspired and unoriginal? call it [anime name]: grand on-- wait nevermind bad example

But latin sounds cool. And most of the time you can't even tell it is latin. :'(

And 'Super Cool Freedom RPG With Community Stuff' sounds bad. =.='
I need something else to work with here.

It's always good to give it a working name so that you don't have to refer to "that one project I'm making that has RPG elements and is totally awesome", but the actual production name of the project should be one of the last things you ever do with it. By saving the name for last, you're aware of the full extent of the contents of the game and can more intgelligently name it, wheras at the start of the project you really have no idea where it will go.
