Well, I'm slightly curious. How did all y'all think up the names for your characters? I've noticed a few people named their characters after gods or myths that fit into the character's personality, and it made me wonder what sort of method you use to name them, if any.

Perhaps a pointless topic, but fun nontheless, right?


Ed: I have a large boulder named Edward. It's personality is very much like Ed's.
Maxwell: Maxwell Edison, majoring in medicine... ^_^
Mica: because I wanted a character named after an inanimate object of some sort. She was originally 'stone'.

Actually, that's it. Veronica is just because i love the name, and i didn't name Shirese.

Danica - because it's pretty and sounds slightly Spanish.
Kelly - I decided that too many people had weird names I've never heard of, and Kelly seemed pretty normal. I didn't notice until now that she sounds completely irish.
Terra - Terra's a cool name...
Brianna - thought of the personality first, then decided a random name. Normal name.

Only one character: Chris. Christian was the first name that came to my head, having no other good ideas.
