I need character name ideas.

Hello, peoples! I am working on a story that isn't really based on Jazz or Fooruman or anything related to either of those (although there will be some fun "crossovers"). The story will be about two groups of 1337 haxors "fighting" against eachother to determine the fate of the earth and stuff.


I've got a fair amount written, but I need character name ideas. Any suggestions?

(Don't tell me to look in the character profiles thread.)

If you take Faw's link and use all biblical names, people will automatically think your work is profound and meaningfun.

EDIT: I meant meaningful, but I like this typo more.

People on that website said Lori is an old lady's name. Can you imagine Lori as an old rabbit? Creepy, so creepy I could puke my pants.

Are you looking for common American names?

Also, I have a suggestion. All characters' names should start with the same letter.

I'm looking for "real people" names. I also like the idea of all the character names starting with one letter.

Also, I'd prefer as few ties to the Jazz community and related names as possible - I want this to be marketable to people who don't know who we are.

Hell, just look at the references for any good scientific paper; that's just *crammed* full of neat names for people!

Vybeck, Mascharack, Berkessel, Lindahl, Holm, Kovacs, Silva, Darnell, Halpern, the list is endless!

I advocate that behind the names is great in a pinch, especially because the meaning and the lineage are given too, making the names relevant to the character.

Alright, I've got all I need for now. I suppose an admin can close the topic if they feel so inclined. Thanks for the ideas everyone, and stay tuned for the first chapter(s) coming out soon.
