Agreed. I don't always have a problem with Shepard in fic, but I tend to sideeye the ones with super-special names. An Emily Shepard or a Sarah Shepard is usually fine, but I've never seen a, say, Philomena Shepard who was written well.

(I've never actually seen a Philomena Shepard. It's just an example.)

Besides, with the occasional exception of Garrus/Shepard stuff, I tend to find other characters more interesting anyway. Maybe it's because we got Shepard's story already, but there's still tons of unexplored territory with characters who aren't her/him.

I understand people's attachments to Shepard and I am very fond of Femshep myself - she's one of my favorite video game protagonists - but I'm really glad that Bioware isn't including them in the next game. I'm done there.

Honestly I tend to pass over the ones that even refer to Shepard as anything besides, well, "Shepard", and to a lesser extent the default first names. Because no one ever actually calls Shepard anything but that, so it's really jarring for me personally to suddenly see everyone calling Shepard, "Jason" or "Allison" or something.

Oh my God, I agree. I hate when fanficcers give them nicknames too. Philomena "Stupid Nickname" Shepard. That is also an automatic no.
