This means I most likely will be able to write something for National Novel Writing Month this year, since the one thing really holding me back was the fact that I didn't have names for any of my characters. I still don't have names for the two main characters, but hey, still needing to come up with two names isn't nearly as bad as needing another seven of them.
The names themselves, by the way, are:
- Mekedzis, formerly "sneaky guy." I had gotten the idea a while back that he would have a name starting with an M, and then one of the random name generators came up with "Meredzis." I liked the look of it but thought a C or K in place of the R would work better, so I changed that bit.
- Aiore, formerly "spiky-haired girl." Straight from the random name generator. Coincidentally, according to Google there is a manga or anime or something titled "Ai Ore," which I've never heard of.
- Hegamel, formerly "spiky-haired guy." Also straight from the name generator.
- Vahrago, formerly "old guy." Straight from the generator, and apparently is spelled similar to an actual word that means something like "an unpleasant woman."
- Isahralah, formerly "scary old man." The generator came up with "Isahrara," and I fiddled with the end a bit to come up with the current version. Seems like a pretty good "ancient old man" name.
