Hello everyone. I'm in the process of finally starting a story I've had in my head for a while, but I'm running across a problem. I'm running out of name ideas. Any ideas would be amazing. First and surnames would be helpful.
It's a fantasy plot based in current time. Main characters are werewolves. :)
If you want for a character to really represent something look up names that correspond with that. In my book, Odessa deals a lot with anger and wrath and that is what her name stands for in Greek, which has a lot of background in her story. You can also visit baby websites.
I really like the name Cynthia and Phyre has a certain ring to it. For a guy I kinda like Kylo and maybe Steve.
behindthename.com has a random name generator that is awesome for discovering new names.
just take a bite of food and then say any name and write down what it sounds like to you. for example, my characters name is Afva, or Ava is the original name
I'm partial to the generators over on http://www.seventhsanctum.com/ myself, plus www.springhole.net has a tonne of generators and writing advice.
