I'm trying to come up with names for my characters using conlangs I've created, but I feel like they sound ridiculous, and I was just wondering if there's a point where anyone starts to believe it about their own names. To be blunt, I think some of the names I come up with sound stupid; does anyone else ever feel this way?
Yes yes yes yes yes
One name one man
Zackary with a k
I think it sounds really dumb and people get it wrong all the time.
yes, my name sounds extremly stupid
also some of my characters name are quite idiotic
Some of mine can be.
Oberon, Fern, and Julianna come to mind. So do Francesca, Beckett, Winona/Winifred, Darius, Ilona, Sarla, Ayla, Della, Geneva…yeah I have a lot, but they fit the characters.
@@jynandor I think your names sound fine :)
I have a character named Kaelana, or Kaela for short, that's just a weird spelling of Kayla. Sometimes I feel like her name is kinda dumb but it also works because she's a wolf who was raised by river dragons, and in their language "kae" means wolf and "lana" means river, so her name is basically "wolf of the river".
