One of the thing I liked about the original Fable was the ability to purchase different titles for yourself. Once your title was bought, the townsfolk would start calling you by that name every time you strolled into town. That same mechanic is going to be used in Fable 2 and Lionhead Studios is letting their forum members pick one of the names.

A few weeks ago, members were asked to submit possible names for inclusion in the game. The developers then chose twenty of their favorites which are now posted int he forums for members to vote on. You can view the list here, but you must be a forum member to actually cast a vote.

As of now, "Lionheart" is in the lead, followed swiftly by "Wanderer" and "Gunslinger." While all those are great, I can't help thinking whatever happened to names like "Arse Face" "Rat Bastard" and just plain old "Jerk." Sometimes the classics are the best. Flynn De Marco
