Thinking Up Names part 1

Here are some tips for thinking up names.

1) Don't. If you look in the Bible, there are a lot of really interesting names like Solomon, Manasseh, Naomi, Aquila, etc. You can also look at different languages, and find names from them, like Cailin (girl in Irish), or Zoro (Spanish for fox minus an r). Also modern, English names are good, like Sophia, Anna, or Lilian.

2) Scramble up words or names. Like the name Kara spelled backwards is Arak, a very good boys name.

3) say a line of random jibberish to yourself aloud and if there are any syllabyles you like in there, make it into a name. For example, Dol laia hil shrig thraki chri broai. One of my favorite syllabyles in there is Laia. (A good name for a bug is Shrig. That's the name I just gave to the beetle I found in one of my folders. LOL)

I think there are more methods, but I have to go now. Hope this helps anyone who is stuck on a name.
