Okay so I got this idea earlier from…I don't even remember. BUT I'll explain what I mean. Pick like two or three characters of yours and put there names like the following:
Avani:
Silas:
Evie:
Autist:
Like that! Okay so once you've done that ^^^ You move to the next step by putting a song that practically describes them. Hmmm, give me a second and I'll do that…
Mallory: Sweet but Psycho (Ava Max)
Cedric: Toxic (Britney Spears)
Autist: Natural (Imagine Dragons)
Avani: You Can't Stop the Girl (Bebe Rexa)
–
So That didn't take super duper long, but I find it fun and I wanna see what you think fits!
Raz: HUSH by Aviva
Flyn (not now but when I first made him): Looking like this by Lyre Le Temps
Chesh: Wonderland by Caravan Palace (Venderdi Remix)
@RainyDayArtist OOOOHH I like this idea a lot! Are we allowed to do songs that just fit the vibe of the character?
Yeah, whatever you feel fits best ;)
Daniel: Smack A Bitch (Rico Nasty)
Amelia: Can't Relate (DaniLeigh)
Berenice: Devil Eyes (Hippie Sabotage)
Finn: Sweater Weather (The Neighbourhood)
You'll have to excuse my music taste as all the songs are by Australians. (As I am Aussie and I listen to anything that plays on Triple J).

I actually do something related to this - I give my story a soundtrack like I would for a film. Scenes and chapters always have a song associated with them, and my characters and their relationships have recurring themes or motifs that play an important role in the story.
