Man soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much names here
Why not choose only 10 best ones? ?

[UserK]

It's your fault! 
This seemed so collaborative I didn't feel right at just vote my favs. I also wanted to make sure they were further considered for wide reception.
They are not really much, I just took all the names you guys suggested and organized them consistently. In retrospec however, I think the forum is not the right tool for this. Maybe a google spreadsheet would be better... but I'm probably taking this too seriously!

[arseniy]

why not. Taking seriously might bring better results

Seems the name of the Main character is up in the air still.

Hmm, thinking of actually making you be able to play all of the characters so far with a "Player swap" to another Guardian, making use of special attacks per character instead of one having all.

Of course, there should be one character that you have "full control" over as being the main character, but it's still up in the air.
So far Renia is the "demo" character.

Going to take out all the +s you made, UserK to see what we have in the "top", since you and me agree on most of the names.

[arseniy]

it also could be Rimia - a swaped M and R
LOL also could play with combiation of AAIMR a letters from original name
Imara
Ariam
Amira

Don't think that's a good idea, Arseniy.
We can make use of our fantasy as this character is not connected to the original as they weren't present in that "timeline" of TGL.

I think we have alot of name suggestions here already that we can make use of, UserK made a quite good list of the one that sounds better or easily fits in.

[UserK]

I actually tried to make a google spreadsheet so everyone of you can contribute.
The goal was to provide a "feel" of how the various names sounded like in the various places of the world (neo-latin for me).
I added very little besides the feeling, most names were already there to start with (I don't remember who proposed them).

If we choose like 10 best names and me or someone create poll with them, then I will send newsletter so we will have some votes.

Well... I know this is pretty biased... But I really like the name Sakura (Japanese name meaning Cherry or Cherry blossoms) I personally would use this name because it's a japanese game, and it would keep with the RED theme of the main character.

Physical stats? I would say:
eye color: red (unlike Miria's blue)
hair color: lavender (pale blueish purple)
hair style: short (cut down to mid-neck), bangs cut and hanging over forehead, center fade
breast size(she's female! we can't forget this.): A cup (smaller means more athletic )
age: 16-20 (sometimes age can change the cuteness level and she needs to be cute )
height: 4 ft, 11 in (not too tall, she needs to be able to fit in smaller spaces)
weight: 105 lbs (she needs to be skinny, but not too skinny)

As for personality: a girl who acts violent yet is actually very innocent behind her somewhat dark "shell". She should actually be willing to risk her life to save someone she doesn't even know. She should also get embarrassed easily (normally she'll get mad when she's embarrassed ). Maybe if she is with more people she could develop a love interest as well.

Sadly Sakura is a heavily used name, which I would like to avoid as I wish for using a more original or less used name.

Although I do like your Physical status suggestion, although I wonder if Red would be a good choice. Then again they are cyborgs, but wouldn't it be better to go for something more humanish?

Also, her personality is heavily biased(You said it!) that almost it's always that persona in most anime/Manga/stories from Japan.
Stereotypes helps out, but getting alittle bit more uniqueness to steer clear from "Just another fan game with stereotypes and archtypes.".

Lavender sounds like a good idea though, also her Hairstyle is just gorgeous on how you explained it.^^

Let me see if I can draw up something akin to what you seek.

eye color: red (unlike Miria's blue)

Red? That would scare the crap out of me in the real world. I suppose I'd take it as a pixel artifact in a sprite.

[zeldatimelinefreak]

I guess I can see where you're going with the name and personality, but I feel that someone who is forced upon this task would end up very similar to this personality anyway... you can tweak it around if you want! I do have other names though; Sakura (I still think it's a nice name, and it kind of fits the hair style in a way) was just my personal favorite.
My other choices (Staying with the japanese theme, some may sound better with -Chan at the end) are: Misaki, Hikaru, Natsumi, Chii, Yasuko, Haruhi, Mariko, Akari, Itsuki, Rina, Neko, Maru, Hikari, Kuro, Shiro, and Midori. I feel Misaki would be the best alternative if you decide on a different name .

[arseniy]

I like Misaki but in russian it would sound a bit awkward because of some similarity with piss. I not feel S letter to be in the name. So if to mix Sakura and Misaki without S it would be something like Mikaru or Maruki

[zeldatimelinefreak]

Maruki is actually translatable from japanese, but it's definition is log . The characters to spell it are 丸木. Check google translator if you want to see.

[arseniy]

haha! Log would be pretty stupid name
