Where to get your character's names from Have you ever just sat down with a notebook or pen and wondered what you should name your character? Maybe you're staring at your computer screen thinking, does this name match the character's personality? Well whether you're looking for a name that needs to have a deep meaning and orgin or just a cute name for a younger sister; I have a big list as to where you can find their names. 1. babynames.com
This is a great website because they have an advanced search which includes an orgin, meaning, what you want the name to start and end with, the gender and the ammount of slyllables you want. I often go to this website first for anything I need if I have a general idea of what I want. (They even have an advice for writers section!)
This is a huge yes! I have a board filled with different names with meaning and orgins. I have many pins that list names with the same aesthic. I even have some last names saved on my board. This is my next go to when I'm not entirly sure what I want for a name, when I need an easy side character name, pet names, last names and when I can't find what I'm looking for on babynames. 3. Coffe Shops
Okay, so there is no need to call me crazy, but when you're in a coffee shop and they call out the name, there you go! The name to your next side character. Also I was told coffee shops were a great place to write so we'll have to try it out. 4. Grave Yards
I'm still not crazy. At least not for that reason. It is a great way to find names I promise! There are plently are names you can look at and there are a lot of old and new names. There should be at least one there that can fill your needs in search of a name. 5. Facebook.com
This is a nice way to find names because there are millions of people on it. Just scrolling through it can quickly find you a stunning name you are searching for. Just like the rest it can help you search for a fantasic name for a fantasic person.
