Finding Names for your Characters - List of Resources

Could these be useful? I use them a lot to build Chinese / Japanese names.

I mostly use Behind the Name (first names and surnames), however.

Just gonna put some gently-used character names into the public domain. While you may use them as you like (first come, first named, of course), I'll include class suggestions where not painfully obvious:

Danger Rangerette

Death By Dart

Flash Ozone (Lightning skills Shadow, though Templar would also work)

Racing Shadow

Please be kind to these Wraeclastian orphans which I've had to pare out of a maxed-out character list, and use them as seeds for your own character names. It often helps if you have a character build in mind, and doubly so if you're not averse to something silly, occasionally. Gonna use a unique hammer in your build? Forget Thor/Thor Odinson/Thunor... Try Maxwell Silver, or if your build is a female character, Rosie the Riveter, or Lucrezia Hammersmith.

Still prefer a touch of dignity? Almost any name, common or exotic, can be paired with an obscure descriptor. Instead of Danger Rangerette, you could have Jane Toxotes, or Mary the Toxophilite (two synonyms for archer, easily found with a quick web search).

Racing Shadow could become Scudder Penumbra.

Naming characters doesn't have to be a chore; it can be a lot of fun, though you may end up with names which beg for a character build, like that last one. Just don't wait for the last minute to come up with one. League start, with its long queues, is a fine time to browse a few word synonym sites, or any of the many links in the OP of this thread. =^[.]^=

Some suggestions for thematic names for the Third Edict League:

Synonyms for Edict:

decree
ruling
directive
decision
proclamation
resolution
fiat
ukase
announcement
declaration
diktat
rescript
bull
verdict
opinion
judgement
pronouncement
determination
diagnosis
judgment
manifesto
dictum
conclusion
deliverance
call
canon
encyclical
instruction
directive
order
direction
injunction
decree
commandment
command
word
imperative
requirement
charge
behest
dictate
mandate
law
rule
demand
ordinance
regulation
precept
prescription
statute
countermand
prescript
counterorder

So, you might have Mandemus of the Diktat, or Vimmy the Rulebreaker, or Imperator Toxicus. =^[.]^=

You're just using your imagination. Even Mister Rogers told us to do that.
