Has this changed or isn't Amos the most common Zalanthas name? Shouldn't everyone have a character named Amos once?
Amos should be okay at least once, sure.
Don't forget Malik and Talia and Amossa.
What about Derpina?

We can't make Talias because of Talia withholding that name when she joined staff - Or has that changed?
Amos, the tall, muscular man has a special place in all our hearts.
Question: Where did this all start though with making Amos a popular name?

Is it not a ArmMUD related thing?

I think that's where its from.
And here I was thinking it was from some off-hand comment a staffer made eight or so years ago about most common names for PCs.
Stop flexing your degree, Jingy.

Same. It was in the docs on the old site.
I think it was one of those things that was very not darksun but somehow happened and became a thing that evolved with arm.
I heard it started when there were like 8 PCs running around with the same name many moons ago. Likewise with "the tall muscular man" being a common newbie sdesc.
To my shame, I had the keyword 'tall' in one of my first characters. I eventually changed it when I wised up.
