So I'm making this character for my story (he's a supporting/side character) and I can't decide on a name for him. He sleeps a lot, doesn't really like interacting with people, is made of sarcasm, constantly exhausted, will fuck you up with his fire powers (that I haven't developed yet) if you fuck with his children (his children are just damaged and sort of idiotic humans/demons he protects). He's the son of a man who's basically a god and a human woman, so although he can regenerate after death and isn't easily killed, he can be killed by anyone (you just have to do it a specific way).

Names I've been considering:

• Phoenix
• Enzo
• Quinton
• Dexter

The reason I wanted to call him Phoenix is because he basically is one, or at least my version of one. But at the same time, I don't know if that'll come off as uncreative, lazy, or uninteresting.

What do you think?

I like Quinton, it fits and it's original and cool!

I also like Quinton, maybe he can be known as Phoenix as like a code name?

I think quinton is best, as Dexter to me is a bit of a steriotypical villian name. Phoenix is cool as a code name, but enzo doesn't fit at all in my eyes.
Also Quinton is rather cute, but fierce as well

Yeah, I like Quinton too, I just don't like the soft tone it brings because my character is the opposite of soft. I've also been considering Samil

Yeah Samil is pretty great if you're trying to make a tough, but not stereotypical character.

Quinton is still a good alternative tho, he could even express how he doesn't like the softness of it.

Maybe a name like Tristan would work, it's cool and still sounds 'fantasy' enough. but i really like quinton too.
