> It is hard to take a bard seriously with a name like "Chantara". It's like having a warrior named "Bashor" or an invoker named "Magicia". I was always partial to Bashere myself. > Cool tricks for name ideas: Names made via the Name Creator stand out like a sore thumb. If you see someone named Iejejijyk, mock them. Try http://spitfire.ausys.se/johan/names/default.htm instead. > 2) (Stolen from Twist, I think?): Write out a sentence. Take the first letter or two from each word and string them together. "I'm bad at making names" = "Ibamana" or "Imbaamn" or something. I've actually used this once or twice. > 3) Steal from sufficiently obscure sources. Minor characters in odd books, cool names from your local phone books, offbeat baby-naming guides off the Web, etc. *nod*
