How to pick the right name

Check your server's name rules

Many GTA RP servers require a realistic first and last name. Puns like Perry Meter or Polly Sea pass that test, so save the sillier ones for callsigns and nicknames.

Match the name to the job

A traffic officer named Ray Darr or a detective called Hugh Dunnit tells other players who you are before you say a word.

Keep it easy on the radio

Dispatch and other officers will say your name all shift. Short names and clear callsigns keep radio traffic smooth.

Play it straight

The joke lands best when your character never acknowledges it. Introduce yourself seriously and let the other players catch on.
