Hello fellow writers,

I had an interesting experience this past week. My experience has sparked a new story idea. I need a good, strong name for my main character. He's 15 years old. I'm open to any kind of name, preferably one that you don't hear very often because I want my main character to stand out. I DO NOT want names like "Tyler" or "Andrew" or "Scott" or "Kyle". Those names are too original.

Also, I'm open to any suggestions on personality traits.
Thanks!! over and out,

Try babynames.com

I get all my characters' names from there. Click on "Search baby names" and type in a meaning. It's great.

Hey,

I've used baby name sites before. You're right!

I just wanted to hear the names that come to mind from real people!
Not just the names that you can get off a website :D
