Naming your Characters

[DivineHeroine]

My personal method of naming often tied to "Inspiration"- characters I admire from certain books or songs I listened to. I sometimes do the same with their personality and appearance.

[Metronome]

I named two of my characters after comic book characters.

Cable= Cable from Xmen
Bane= Bane from the Batman comics.

My other characters, I just named them randomly.

[DeadlyWolfQueen]

Ahhh...
Desdaemona Was a nickname in my childhood and I still go by it.
Rikinae- Riki was another nickname from my childhood where I used to say "nyea" a lot.
Canturnr- "Can't Turn Her"
Nicais- A name from a book. I plan to name my child that someday.
Ingroma- 'in- grah- oo-mah' Plain mockery on my part.
Trywanai- 'TrEE whann-E"... Tia Wannai as in Tai Bwo Wannai Trio
Fevrlaen- 'Fever-lay N'- I was sick at the time and was playing with "Fever I am laying in"
Drogen/Mr.Acidic- He was an outlet for insane rage. Drogen was a play on something I suppose I shouldn't mention here.

Its honestly just basic foolery on my part, or something has a personal connection to me. Sometimes, I just want to create as many characters as I can with the oddest names. This isn't even the beginning.

How I came up with Bliss' name:
Bliss is a calm and cheerful feline, and Bliss is another word for 'paradise'. If everyone was like Bliss, it would be paradise Or, you could jut say that Bliss's own world is Paradise.

Whisper:
I came up with this OC when speedpainting Bliss, but it became a whole new character! I was feeling sad and deppressed that way, so Whisper is blue-gray, and she is shy, and silent, barely speaks.

Nitro:
Then there is Nitro, he is a WIP OC for me who has quite the attitude, and his name just souned badass, which he likes to be seen as

Those are just my main OC's the others are just muuur XD

[Jango_Fett]

My Bob-Cat was named after an actual Lynx I met at some Tropical Pet Store.

She wash sho cute =^.^=
 

[MoonStream607]

I name mine after nature and mostly stars and the sky features.
(The starred ones are my names of one of each character, you may use any of these names)
Orion *
Leo
Lupus
Scorpio
Sky *
Moon
Star
ect...

[WhiteHawk]

I usually just come up with some random sounds that I like. Others are actual words that are meaningful or irrelevant to the character in question; and one of which was in a foreign language.

[Jackkdaw]

Ah, I see!
Very interesting, guys, thank you so much for expressing your input! <3
I love hearin' stuff from y'all. Very interesting. X3

[CrazyCatLady]

I like to use less common names. Well. In my opinion less common. Never met a Darcy before xD

While for Myrio I just made it up. And his last name is Gri which is Romanian.

[xcandyheartsx]

I can hardly make up names for my random characters I just randomly create for rping or stalking. So I just grab my "The Best Ever Book Of Cat Names" and go to the A-Z names. I use it for a LOT of things.
