A Vampire is an iconic character of myths and legends, used in stories of the past, as well as of today. In some places, people believed in it so much that it caused actual mass hysteria. It is one of the most recognizable words in the whole world.
Modern takes on the Vampires heavily influenced their design in games, where the most common look is that of a pale rich noble, who is secretly this grand monster. Like it or not, there are certainly many appealing things about it.
Putting it simply, anyone could be a vampire, but since it has to do even with real-life human history and folklore, their names often resemble human names, from Eastern European ones to old English, spanning the regions where the stories began.
