Canon MC name vs Self-Insert?

[Altorese]

i don't really like picking up names myself ahaha. + i don't self-insert and read just as viewer, so i prefer leaving canon mc name. it is also a big pros to me that it's voiced, without an awkward pause for a changed name xd

I prefer playing under a name I've come up with myself, but rather than projecting myself onto the character, I tend to imagine the specific protagonist for that particular game. That said, wanting to make the protagonist embody my ideal character might be a form of self-projection in a way—which is perhaps why I'm not too fond of protagonists with overly strong personalities.

Always canon MC name. Thinking up a new name for blank-slate MC is takes my time so i always prefer the game already giving the default name to MC.

If the default name is voiced then i will leave it as is, otherwise i usually change it to one my nickname to self insert >.<
