What name do you give to Zelda hero

[Shpongled]

When I was a kid I'd always name the main characters after myself.

Like, I renamed Cecil as my own name in Final Fantasy 4. It was after Final Fantasy 4 though that video game characters finally had seperate unique personalities that went along with the stories, so I started using the default names and seeing through their eyes instead of my own.

Link, in every zelda. I try to make the names (if I need to input one) to match the game/character/plot as well as I can. I think I have obsessive-compulsive -syndrome. >_>

The thing is, Nintendo doesn't suggest using "Link" as the name of the hero, as opposed to Final Fantasy for example.

According to Wikipedia in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_(The_Legend_of_Zelda_series) :

Link is named for the “link” the player shares with the hero of each game, and in every game (except Four Swords Adventures), the player can name the character according to his or her wishes.
