i have a, as yet, un-named Rogue.
After racking my brains for something roguish, i'm drawing blanks.
Any ideas or suggestions?

I generally name them for their race more than their class. But history can play a part in how a name might develop as well. "SwiftFoot" came from a mutation that my halfling developed from a meteor that crashed when I was a child. My legs strengthened and I was faster, could jump more and got an Initiative boost. Work on a history and develop a name from there.

Epithets are easy. Pick an enhancing adjective. Pick an ability/body-part. Combine. Simple...

E.g. "lightfingers", "quickdraw", "sureshot"

For a first-name, then go for something common from your character's culture, or a nickname. For a rogue, it will not be sophisticated (e.g. Bartholemew). Just keep it simple.

E.g. Joey Lightfingers, Marc Quickdraw, Steffie Sureshot
