Need names. [CLOSED]

So I've been working on a fiction for FanFiction.net and for the life of me, i can NOT think of any names for any of my characters that i plan to use in future chapters. I already have Aran (Main protagonist) Conner (His brother the Antagonist) Alrica (Future love interest.) Clara (Alrica's sister) Nivara (Aran and Conner's mother.) Prowler (Not sure what I'm going to make him to be, all he is as of this time is the head of the infirmary in the dragon temple.)

I need about 6 different names for other main characters that will be mentioned throughout the story more often than others, all of which are going to be dragons. I can only think of corny names that aren't necessarily original. If anyone could just submit some ideas my way that would be most appreciated. (Dragons, wolves, apes, and a few cheetahs is what I'm looking for.)

If anyone want's to read it, it only has one chapter so far (It is a reboot of my first FF that i canceled to get better plot and character developments.)

I'm good with names, what kind of dragon characters are we talking about, and what's their role in the fic?

Vexillius (Vex-ill-e-us), Cora (Core-uh), Abaxis (A-Back-sis), Rellus (Ray-loose), Chyred (Kai-red), Homen (Ha-men).

Those seem good?

@Samius - At the moment I haven't planned out what is going to happen to them yet, but what I do have is a few (Hundred) students coming to the dragon temple -it only focus' on the select few that actually get mentioned-. I need a few names of both the base elements and the uncommon ones like Cynder (Fear, poison, wind, and shadow.) Not only student's but a few of their parent's as well, a few wolves, a cheetah or two for later use, etc.

Thanks for the help, really appreciate it! smilie

And @Flamm- Vexire was one of the first names I thought of when I first started, Convexity fire was the mix I made smilie

Ok, I'll think of something, but I can't post it now. It's pretty late here, and I gotta get some sleep.

So, lots.

Fire - Ferron
Ice - Biliarra
Lightning - Lochun
Earth - Gaia

Convexity Ice - Fraive
Convexity Lightning - Exoll
Convexity Earth - Ravexus

Fear - Paitra
Poison - Staillen
Wind - Galen
Shadow - Ombra

(I can explain them all)

That a good start?

If I can't think of names, I just look up:

'Names that mean ____'


This is very easy for a character with a specific power. It makes them more in touch with it. Like a water Imp with a name like 'Aqua' or a Fire Dragon with a name like 'Flame'.

But if it's humans, just put in something relating to the character. I have a character name Arron. It means fire. Why? In the books, he has vision in a ball of fire.

Well, it's easy. Take something related to the subject you base the name of of, and just mix up letters a bit till you get it.

I have a bunch of new names based on their roll in the story and personality, not necessarily their race or element, but it works and they are actually catchy smilie
