Name My Character!
She looks like a "Sapphire Sentinal" or perhaps a "Cerulean Sentinal" to me - both available on Justice as of 5 minutes ago.

Female knights in France have been traditionally referred to as "chevalière", which is an option.
If you want to really get historical, there is a story of a woman who was granted the equivalent title of "knight" after helping to defend a city in 1472. She was named "Jeanne Hachette", which is superficially similar to the current name.
Or you could just go with "Lady Guinevere" as a twist on the King Arthur legend.
Women in England who are knighted are currently referred to as "Dame", so that could be an option - ie: "Dame Daring", "Dame Defiant" or something similarly hokey.

She also kinda looks like she has an apron on and is about to perform field surgery.

Hmm ... Broadsword/Regen, eh.
Female knights are called dames in the British honor system ...
Double-Edged Dame?
Going purely by the primary, a quick trip to Thesaurus revealed to me there's a type of sword called Curtana. Maybe make that Lady Curtana to add a bit of a noble touch.
Some other ideas are Dame Mascus or Madam Mascus, horrible puns on damascus, another type of sword.

I like Sapphire Sentinal. I'd actually been considering something like "Azure Knight" or "Aqua Knight" but those are probably taken anyway. Other ideas I had were "Maiden Knight" or "Isolde" (which is similar in vein to "Lady Guinevere"). I also like chevalière as a name or part of a name.
Don't think I want to go with Dame.
I'll see what's available tonight when I get home and make a decision then. Thanks for the suggestions!

Since she's female, and Justice is a Virtue, what about "Charity Justice"?

Also, there's no "a" in "Sentinel."

You could always thumb your nose at political correctness and call her "Sword Broad"

The name I checked was the misspelled one, BTW, so I'm not sure if it's available spelled correctly.

Dame Mascus would be great for a character with an actual sword made of damascus steel, but ... I don't know if we can get that look in the game.
"Aqua Knight" might get genericked, since there is a manga by the same name. (Interestingly enough, it's written by the same artist as Battle Angel Alita, who, if I'm not mistaken, appears to be your avatar.)

I doubt I'd get generic'd over that, but no reason to risk it.

How about Blue Valkyrie,Since she looks like a Norse Maiden because of Valkyrie Armor she got on,If anyone want to no what a Valkyrie is,they are heavenly Warrior Women who comes down form Asgard to bring the Souls of Dead Warriors back to Valhalla.

Anyway, since you haven't really described any specific concept or context for this one, writing in a name would be pretty much a random affair. I tend to go for personal names a lot of the time, unless the theme specifically requires a name of some sort, and other than "something to do with a Valkyrie or possibly the colour blue," this look isn't too suggestive.
OK, after checking out names on Virtue, the first one I tried was the first thing that popped into my head, and it looks free for the moment. That name is "Swordfight" and I think it's appropriate for your character. I'd look for more names, but I'm actually simultaneously happy with this one and actually pretty pissed off that I'm being routed to the EU version of the site, so I'll have to limit my degree of thinking for today.

Level 50 broadsword/regen scrapper, with an armored knight look that I've always liked. Newly arrived to Justice.
I suck at names. Usually when I create a character I'm not even thinking of a name. I start with a look or a particular power set that I want. The times when I think "I should create a ballerina with martial arts because of all the high kicks and spins, and I'll name her Nina Ballerina after an obscure ABBA song" are pretty rare. More often, I think, "I want a broadsword/regen scrapper" and "I want her to look like a knight", and then I'm stuck at the name screen and I type in "Jennie Justice" for no other reason than I'd previously named a fire blaster Jennie Bomb (which was a reference to a cd by the Sahara Hotnights, and which I believe is a slight nod to the song "Cherry Bomb" by the Runaways).
(I get a lot of names from song titles.)
So I've recently been moving characters around to different servers. I mostly play on Virtue, but I also play on Freedom. I moved an old fire/axe tanker to Freedom purely so I could participate in hami raids and other high-end content there. I rarely played this character on Virtue.
Along the way I've either forced name changes for a few characters or been forced to change names that I would otherwise have kept. "Jalia Genie", a rather dumb name, became Jade Princess. "Jalia Dragonfire", another rather dumb name, became Black Unicorn (a song title), which is not necessarily a great name but probably better than before. "Miss Avalanche" was a good name for an ice tanker, but I was forced to change it, so I went with "Sleeping Sun" (Nightwish song title... it makes sense if you think about it, plus it's an awesome song).
The above character was Jennie Justice, a name I didn't particularly like but didn't hate. I decided to transfer her to Justice server as I don't play her that much and she'd be ideal for joining a hami raid. This being the Justice server, the name "Jennie Justice" was actually already taken. But this gives me the opportunity to give this character a much better name.
I need something appropriate for the virtuous knight that she obviously is. ^_^
