Link is a cool name!
Link is even the name of the Operator for the Neberchednezzer in Matrix Reloaded!
So it's spreading!

Samus would make a good girls name, as its not too out there, yet still cool
and only nintendo fans would know it, unlike everyone who knows mario, most people call samus 'that guy from metroid'

Y'know, EVERY time I have to come up with a name for a character in an RPG or something, I -always- name them after some video game character. The more obscure, the better. Who remembers Linda Lash?

Yup. And then your child will hate you for the rest of your life.

Sah (like the first part of salad), Ree (Like Rio De Janero), Ah (as in apple).
Sah Ree Ah.
Malon is more difficult, in that it's an English name, rather than a Japanese one. I would do it like this though:
Mah (like saying march), Lon (either loan, or talon... take your pick. I am more inclined to pronounce it like talon).

I mean, imagine your kid named Buzz Lightyear, Evil Knievel, Goofy or Lara Croft, thats just totally gaye.
Its ok though if you name your dog something like that, actually thats what the thread should be called, would you name your pet after a Nintendo character.

Even naming your kid "Saria" is fine, because it's a cool name, and people will assume it's an actual name from a certain culture or whatever.
I've always like "Petra" form the book "Ender's Game" but it doesn't sound good with my last name, because the first name ends with a vowel, and my last name begins with one.

Most of the names they come up with are Japanese or come from a different country anyways. SO it wouldn't be that weird naming your kid after them. Yes, Saria would be a great name for a little girl. Malon... sorta sounds like a chunky ugly kid.. melon. At least Saria would make someone think of a cute chick after just hearing the name. Hey... I bet ya that it would be cool if you got your little girl into Zelda, (BTW that's a good name too) and gave her elf ears through plastic surgery to make her look like Saria!
As for a guy, I'm more into RPG characters names. So I don't think that I could come with anything better than Link. Heh heh, how about Dr. Mario? LoL!

BTW Kirby is a real name, so that kid wouldn't get as beat up as if he were named "Pikachu".
The only way anyone should name their kid after a video game character is if it;s a normal name (or not so normal, like, Zelda. It isn't really normal, but it's real.).

Samus Aran, Tetra, Malon, and Xavier are all cool names, but I wouldn't name my kids that. Except maybe Xavier, but that isn't a Nintendo name anyway. . .

I'd name my daughter Zelda :3
