Names

Names are tricky most of the time. When asked to come up with a fantasy-sounding name on the spot even I will say 'Doug' or 'Tim'. You can always go with names from literature or movies but you might not feel as attached to them as you would a name you created. You might try turning your name backwards but why name a character Mit? Here are a few websites to try. They all have good name generators and a few other treats as well. Check them out:

Chaotic Shiny

Seventh Sanctum

Rinkworks (This site only has a fantasy name generator, but it churns out over 100 names at a time!)


So there you have it - some good sites for names. But before you use them, I suggest you try thinking of one yourself. It only takes three or four minutes and it is quite satisfying. One last hint before you go - think about what this character does or what kind of weapon it uses. Bree Three-Hands (from the shadow plague comic) is a perfect example of this. I assume she is named such because she steals so much. Just some food for thought.
