A lot of my characters come out of the names.
Evangelia came from a goofy Evangelion fanfic -- one about an alternate world where Evangelion was a classic magical girls series. "Magical Princess Evangelia" was the name of the "series", and pretty much defined the earliest version of Eva on Virtue, who came out as sort of a cross between Minako Aino and an Evangelion.
Some Random Schmuck exists solely for the lulz I get reading the pedestrian comments: "They say the trolls are afraid of Some Random Schmuck." "I heard Some Random Schmuck took down a gang of Hellions." and so on.
X-Ray Ted is a one-joke hero whose name suggested everything in his design -- ex-porn star with radiation powers.
And that's just three from Vritue. I've got stuff like that all over.
