What goes into choosing character names? Do you use aptronyms (words that sound like the character's personality), ironical names (such as Will Dormer in the film Insomnia) or just anything that comes to mind? Do you always try to create a specific picture of the person when you create a name?
I planned to call one of my detective characters Jack Russell but some people said because it would instinctively remind people of the terrier, then that was a bad idea. I might change the first name to Daniel or Max; what do you think?
